Jakob Why does it take SO long to apply a filter in webfrontend?

What browser are you using? • johanempa joined the room Jakob Vanadium from GrapheneOS dansup • Jakob Vanadium from GrapheneOS Aha, thats why. Apparently, the methods we use to apply a filter can be abused for privacy reasons, but don't worry, most people use Chrome or Firefox and the filter gets applied instantly!

Received an interesting bug report regarding the Pixelfed photo filters in the webUI.
The JS logic we employ can be abused for privacy reasons, and this user is using a browser that mitigates this, leading to long waits.
I know Pixelfed like the back of my hand, so that's why I asked which browser they are using, and of course, that is the real cause behind this issue!
