Hello everyone 👋  
On Vaperina, users can upload images, **we have replaced the previous lightbox solution** , **Magnific Popup** , with a newer, more modern solution.

### 🎯 Why was the switch necessary?

- **Modernization:** Magnific Popup was great, but since its release in 2014, web requirements and browser compatibility have evolved significantly.
- **Better performance:** By abandoning outdated code, the goal is a **faster, more reliable, more compatible** , and aesthetically **nicer** lightbox experience.
- **Improving User Experience:** A solution better suited to today’s expectations was needed.
