I’ve searched around and can’t find this but it seems like someone must have created this already. I am hoping to find a self-hosted image resizer app. I frequently need to take photos from my phone (etc…) and make them small enough to post online.

For instance, my lemmy instance (lemm.ee) only allows images in posts if they are smaller than 500KB but my phone’s photos are always larger than that.

In a perfect world, I could just browse to a local server app, upload an image, select a size to resize it to, hit Go and then download the smaller image. It doesn’t have to allow any other editing and it shouldn’t store images long-term. I want to self-host so I don’t have to upload my images to random web sites I know nothing about.

I would be happy with a FOSS desktop app I can install in linux too, but then I couldn’t access it from my phone. The Android apps I found for this either look scammy or include tons of ads.

Anyone know of such a thing? Thanks!
