I am trying to upload a Gedcom from Ancestry, but i get the 'red' message that it may exceed 300 MB. What are my options? Thanks.

    @KennethQuinn1 There is apparently a current issue with the upload process. See this thread. https://community.familysearch.org/en/discussion/comment/421365#Comment_421365

    It is good to have confirmation that the problem is actually not at my end. I liked at the size of my GEDCOM file and it seems to be only 5 MB. But I have also seen/read that FamilySearch may be actively discouraging such uploads. So it appears to be an info jungle out here. Thanks to Áine Ni Donnghaile in any case!
