If you have only been using the default Ghost admin panel or Ghost Desktop, don't worry, everything is fine 😄 However, if you have used the private API or 3rd party clients there is a small chance that you have data stored on resources that is larger than the allowed size - in that case you may run into a limit error next time that resource is saved. If you get any unexpected errors please swing by our [Slack channel](https://slack.ghost.org)!
