Project not saving
So I've been working on a car art, and it is really detailed. However, It's not saving. I've tried loading it into a new project, signing out and signing in, using 7 different browsers, restarting my computer, using a VPN, but it still doesn't work. I don't know what's wrong, because I was signed in and had good internet.
INFO
The project size is 1.4MB
The image .svg size was 1.9MB (Including reference image)
I'm using a 2019 Apple MacBoook Air
Browsers I used are Firefox, Duckduckgo, Opera, Tor, Safari, Brave, and Chrome
Used both of my accounts (this one and @2019SF90TurboS)

I haven't uploaded any audio in the project, I've also tried deleting the default audio, but it still does not save

Yeah, the servers have been a little wonky this morning ^^ Please give them time to resolve the issue as I sure it has been reported multiple times in the last few hours to the ST.

Is there any specific limits for that?

The limits (saving/sharing) for files on Scratch 3 are as follows:
- Each asset must not exceed 10 MB.
- The project JSON (project.json) must not exceed 5MB.
If your project exceeds any of these limits, you might see this alert:

EDIT: If you are still not having luck saving, I recommend either downloading the project for later use or downloading the SVG file (the individual asset), and uploading it later or editing it with an offline SVG editor or the offline Scratch editor. If you decide to do this, don't forget to save your project/file. It seems like the saving issue is very common right now.

It wasn't working yesterday, but I checked a few minutes a go and it saved… I don't know why it didn't save yesterday.

Interesting. It was probably a temporary issue then. Good luck on your art
