Advice these days is to rely on the database to do the right thing with your uploaded files. I think they all handle this rather well.

That sounds right. But even if it works great, it's gonna be the most expensive place to put your data. Those image blobs would be fine on spinning rust.

But yes, there's probably time for that optimization later, if the service takes off.
