  • Hello,

    That behaviour is not a bug, it is a new WordPress 5.3 feature.

    Here you can read more about that, also you can find a filter to disable that behaviour.

    Thanks for your response.
    However, I see at least 2 problems with this new WordPress behavior.

    1. I have a 2048×2679 PNG image, original size=1,03 MB. After uploading this image, WP created a “-scaled” variations with size 3x greated than the original (3,45 MB). Also 2 other variations are greated than the original image size
    2. add_filter( 'big_image_size_threshold', '__return_false' ); is not working.
