Hi,
I might be wrong, but is the hotlinking to Phabricator/Git files
(screenshots in this case) a good thing?
Nobody suggested that, right?
I might misunderstand the whole thing. If it is, just ignore this message.
The typical size of AppData screenshot is ~100 kB. Let's say that there
are ~1000 users that use Discover features to explore KDE applications in
a release day. They can overview ~10 screenshots in average. This will be
1 GB of traffic + load on Phabricator to resolve commits.kde.org links (if
files are stored in git).
Recently, Ben Cooksley removed the page with Calligra Icons from
community.kde.org for similar hotlinking:
https://community.kde.org/Calligra/Icons/3.0
That was the source of my concerns.
On the other hand, if screenshots will be stored in different
places/hostings (each application stores its screenshot in its own place)
it can leverage the load on our infrastructure.
Sorry again, if I misunderstand something.
Best regards,
Yuri
