Thanks, Stephen!

I actually had wanted to show how absolutely terrible some services are at showing photos properly. Example:

…but the article was already insanely long, so dismissed the idea.

Good that Flickr supports 6K, but I’ll add the critical note that a proper display of photography should have no resolution limitation at all. There are zero technical reasons to do so. Including something insane like a 300MP panorama. So not impressed with 6K, although relatively speaking it’s of course great. Anything helps.

Got it. I just don’t know of a platform that quickly displays images at that size, at least not with Flickr’s simple click-zoom-pan, which I think is the best UX for seeing all that res in detail.
