A few devices (such as 5G modems) have firmwares larger than 100Mb and we needed to move most of the upload actions to the celery runners. Now we've done this, uploading large firmwares will now complete much faster but will not be available to edit for a few minutes while all the compressing and signing happens asynchronously. The only change to the UI is that there's now a "Previous Uploads" section in the "Upload Firmware" page, but in most cases this can just be ignored as the upload process will complete in a few seconds anyway. Any failed uploads will be deleted after 30 days. There is a screenshot on https://gitlab.com/fwupd/lvfs-website/-/merge_requests/1099 for the curious. Uploads using the API are completely unchanged, and the action is completed synchronously as before. Any problems please let me know. Richard.
