Meta seems to have money to burn, so they’ll gladly pay for the disk space to host your uncompressible images. Here’s a Python script to generate them!
generate.py
from PIL import Image
from tqdm import tqdm
import numpy as np
import sys
import os
number_of_images = 1000
width = 2048
height = 1024
for filename in tqdm(range(number_of_images)):
image = Image.fromarray(np.random.randint(0, 256, (height, width, 3), dtype=np.uint8))
image.save(str(filename) + ".png")

Be sure to do this with a burner phone or via a virtual machine or emulator so you don;t give them everything they actually want as well.
Doesn’t that also burden any fediverse instance that’s federated with it? Or is Threads not federated (yet)?
Nope, images don’t federate, just links to them :)
What’s uploaded: 1000 10MB pictures What’s federated: 1000 hyperlinks
Also it’s not federating yet
