Like issue #19, this one comes from discord. This is mainly a problem when someone sends me many attachments (10+) and I want to look through all of them to get a general idea of the pictures. Because the photos are so big, it takes a while to scroll through them, and I can only show about one photo on my screen at a time (when they're vertical, anyways).

Below I have screenshots from macOS, iOS (in landscape mode), SMServer, MyMessage, and WebMessage. All of the apps were in full screen mode. I wrote down what percentage of horizontal space the same vertical photo took up on all of those frontends, and the average between iOS and macOS is 36.27%. SMServer is relatively close to this percentage, with WebMessage being lower and MyMessage being higher.

Another (kind of) similar comment is that while attachments display at a larger size than on the host OS, link previews appear to load very true to size.
