one way "ask S3 to generate a pre-signed URL and then tell someone to upload the image to that url"

another way -- ask for link to social media post

Filestack Upload (formerly called Filepicker) ties into the user's OS file upload process and provides basic photo editing. Might be easier than reinventing the wheel here, although it's no longer free like it used to be. https://www.filestack.com/products/file-upload/

An old version is available at this github repo: https://github.com/filepicker/filepicker-js
