[papeer.tech] Extra Large RSS feeds fail to send to kindle #21

Open otoledan opened 3 months ago

I'm guessing there's an issue with the size limit when it comes to extra large rss feeds contents. I know kindle's email service allows sending zip files, so I assume the no-image flag + sending as zip would significantly reduce the size of the epub that's sent.

I noticed this when looking at the recently sent files on the send to kindle site and saw that several rss feeds had failed to send.

This is for your paid service papeer.tech and less so for the open-source project here.

Sadly this is a Kindle limitation. File attachments are limited to 50Mb.

There is no --no-image flag, only an --image-only tag. But that can be a feature to add.

Sending as ZIP would not help because images are already compressed.
