I would like to do a real App, for example something like instagram, is that possible with Pages?
I have read something about Limit of 25 MiB but I do not understand the exact terms of this …
Yes, this should be totally possible.
The 25MiB limit is per file that is built and published with your app, such as static pages. In the case of something like an Instagram app, I don’t imagine you would build many pages statically - you might have an index, profile, terms, etc. - very few pages, and then use Functions to either SSR those pages entirely, or to rewrite content onto those static pages with your images, profile information, etc.
You would also likely not store in the Images in Pages itself, and instead use something like Cloudflare R2, since these would change frequently and wouldn’t be something you’d want to build the entire website for every time a single item changes.
I’d recommend reading through some of the Pages marketing blogs to get a better idea for how this kind of thing would be approached:

Yes, as long as you don’t need a backend you can run the whole thing on pages and just connect to a backend via API. If you do need dynamic functions within the app, you would need to use CF Workers, which is actually integrated with Pages now.
