Gallery fails to show all the many small SVGs #15

This question is relevant to a repo the output of which, the useful bit of which, are many SVGs, which I hope will become a de facto visual standard. These fixed images are the repo’s output, so it is natural to have a gallery of them.

That gallery markdown page has 468 different SVGs, some shown several times such that the page has 1088 image instances. The SVGs are light, with average size ≈300 bytes; the totality of images needing to be served is only ≈161k.

Problem: only sometimes will GitHub serve so many images; alas usually it won’t and the viewer sees many failed-to-load icons. It might be relevant that it seems more reliable at home than at work — maybe GitHub is sensitive to the requesting IP address, or to Mac v. PC, or to something else (but for both browser = Brave).

The best solution I have so far is an HTML translation of the gallery. Please, is there a way to persuade GitHub to reliably serve many many small images?
