Given that most servers have a 20mb file limit, and sharing some video doesn’t compress well, if at all, to that size, as well PDFs, multiple photos, etc. It would be very useful to have some kind of implementation of a multi-part attachment message. Like the “Sharer” XDC does not work for mobile platforms (Desktop only), and does not fall in to “media” section of UI, or allow for file deletion/organization. Something like split the attachment into zip, and recombine in the receiving app? No change in UI needed, just backend handling of files that exceed message size limits. As it is there is no in-app advice for a user in what to do or why it went wrong except the technical error. This is not good for ‘everyday’ user. This, along with the ability to edit/rescind messages is the #1 and #2 reasons this is not yet a viable messenger to switch to, at least in my sphere. --- _[View the full topic](https://forum.delta.chat/t/multi-message-attachments-large-attachments/3587)._
