upload directly to s3

[sandys]

hi guys, can you incorporate the upload-directly-to-s3 feature as well?

It's just a few lines of code using the Amazon S3 SDK for PHP .. for example this: https://www.designedbyaturtle.co.uk/2015/direct-upload-to-s3-using-aws-signature-v4-php/ (and for the CORS policy ... https://www.designedbyaturtle.co.uk/2013/direct-upload-to-s3-with-a-little-help-from-jquery/ )

I not sure what further complication exists when you have to generate resized images. But for a lot of us with bad VPSes, we would much rather have all the media on S3.

Thanks @sandys, it is on our radar but no timescales as yet
