Description
Pre-fetch and show media size (KB/MB) for all posts containing images, especially GIFs or videos without needing to open/download the media.
(possibly as a simple prioritized first entry in "Post Subtitle")
This would be helpful for people who have metered data.
Thank You!

Research direction
Start by locating the post view and the Post Subtitle rendering path, then trace how image, GIF, and video media are identified and loaded. Determine whether size can be obtained before opening or downloading the media. Done means posts with supported media display their size in the subtitle without requiring the user to open or download it.
