Annoying error: Server error: could not upload file. Please try again later!

I agree with you: AI2 SHOULD be able to handle dozen or more small files in the media folder but seems it does not

too many assets is a known issue, see also

My app is 44.2mb and I can’t download it

For your project to be that large you either have a few large assets or many small assets. Typically if you can't export it's the latter (retrieving files is a time-expensive operation). You may want to download individual assets back to your computer and then remove them from the project to get it small enough to export. We can't really export it for you because the limits are placed on us by Google--they're not imposed by App Inventor.

as workaround you can try the code server http://code.appinventor.mit.edu/ which does not have these Google limitations

another workaround is to put your assets into a zip file, add only the zip file into the assets and unzip the file in the ASD on first run of the app... this extension can help: App Inventor Extensions: Zip/Unzip | Pura Vida Apps
