With the upcoming release of the desktop client (version 3.16.3), the bulk upload feature will be temporarily disabled.
We understand that some of you may rely on this feature, and this decision wasn't made lightly. However, we've encountered ongoing technical issues involving the interaction between the client, server, and underlying systems—including network stack and Qt dependencies—that impact the stability of the feature.
In prioritizing a smoother and more reliable experience for all users, we believe it's best to disable bulk upload for now. The overall benefit of the feature does not currently outweigh the potential for disruption.
If you're unable to update to version 3.16.3 right away, we recommend manually disabling the feature on the server side to avoid any issues:

We appreciate your understanding and are continuing to work on improving the experience.
