       Dear @support - any chance to raise the limits of your #pixelfed instances? 4 pix per post is OKish, but why max 50 posts per collection? I have 370 #ElevatorFashionPics waiting to be posted ;) So according to my calculations I can max add 200 pix per collection (50 posts with 4 pix)

       @jwildeboer This is a hardcoded limit of the software: https://github.com/pixelfed/pixelfed/blob/dev/app/Http/Controllers/CollectionController.php#L124@pixelfed Would you accept a PR to change this to an app config so this could be configured by an environment variable?

       @support @pixelfed Please correct me if I'm wrong, but the total number of collections seems to be unlimited, correct? At least that's how I understand the code in CollectionController.php

       @support @pixelfed But they cannot be nested, AFAICS. So I could not create, say, a collection called "2019" that contains 12 collections (one per month).

       @jwildeboer @pixelfed That's my understanding as well, the limit is just items per collection. There however is spam prevention limits that are also hardcoded that limit the number of collections you can create per time period: https://github.com/pixelfed/pixelfed/blob/dev/app/Util/RateLimit/User.php#L74

       @support @pixelfed Ah, interesting. Are these limits also used when importing (for example when moving from one instance to another)? Or is that process treated different? (Feel free to just answer with "Check the source, Luke" if I get annoying ;)

       @jwildeboer @pixelfed that's my understanding as well, I believe collections can only have photos, videos, and albums. In the case you described I think the recommended course of action would be to create the collections as "may 2019", "june 2019" which wouldn't be as good of a user experience with no programatic linking between the collections (maybe "related collections" could be a new feature request).

       @support @pixelfed Being the standards obsessed person I am, I would create collections named "2019-01 #ElevatorFashionPic", "2019-02 #ElevatorFashionPic" etc.Though I do hope that in future versions there will be some automagic collection creating in the background. Per date, month, year or hashtag.I also hope there will be a default license setting per user, to make it easier to tag posts/pix with a license , which I think is really important for federation and reuse :)
