I used to upload and download my photos fine from my samsung mobile phone. This is being showed to me since the past 5 days all of a sudden.

Is it really a problem of my phone ??

You have an option in your settings to request "desktop mode" which may change this.

They probably want to increase the number of users on their app and are trying to force mobile users over, the "not powerful enough" statement is likely a lie.

I had the same problem with reddit. Apparently none of my browsers could run their powerful site so I had to download their app.

Just kidding. FUCK SPEZ

"Not powerful enough" lol - BS excuse for wanting you to use the app. A different browser (most likely chromium due to compatibility reasons) would most likely fix it.

What browser do you use? If it needs a chromium browser, Brave would be sufficient, most likely. You might have to select it as a default browser app on your phone too.

Midori is indeed Firefox based. As @lordbritishbusiness@lemmy.world mentioned, it might be worth quickly trying to switch to desktop mode (in the browser menu).

If that doesn't work, try switching to Brave.

If that doesn't work either, ~~consider finding a new service, honestly, as this kind of user unfriendliness shouldn't be acceptable.~~ try open an issue here.

Might want to specify that it didn't work with Midori, but it worked with Brave.

Also that the "not powerful enough" error be updated to the actual issue. I seriously don't believe power is part of the reason here, but I'm open to being proved wrong.

It's opening on Brave, but the photos are not uploading. GDa9m0zjuabGi8T.jpg

Blocking html5 canvas improves privacy. The browser might be doing it due to that, in which case it can probably be allowed per site. Couldn't tell you how to do it in brave cause I don't like/use Brave, neither the software nor the Corp. Sorry. Could probably find something online when looking for 'Brave Android allow html5 canvas' or smth.

They're flat out lying to you...

Most people would just stop trying to use that service at that point

ente has no reason to 'lie'. they aren't reddit or google with ads and tracking bullshit everywhere while shoveling hosted ai crap at every tap. it has e2e with user-controlled keys, optional on device 'ai' features, and is self-hostable.
