Why doesn't the sun and the moon change size by a factor of two to three throughout the day? This is incompatible with the flat earth model unless the sun and the moon were to remain at a significant elevation above the plane, but then sunrises and sunsets would not be possible and everyone on the Earth would be in sunlight. I believe Flat Earth is well-poisoning, when hylics come across beliefs that question the current political system that we live in they associate it with "conspiracy theory" and as they associate the term with the bullshit Flat Earth Hypothesis they automatically dismiss such beliefs. Please take care to note the existence of refraction.
The sun is definitely getting smaller, as it moves away towards the horizon.

Seen clearly from the equator.
That's literally just the glare of the camera. You can test this with the moon too, as it is easier to see any major size differences (we're talking 2-3x size difference), and it does not change size at all.
If you want to claim glare, by all means: here you go then.

The balls are only slightly different in size when viewed from above-ground because they are only slightly different in distance from the observer, now in cases of extreme distances; for instance, when the moon or sun is right above you and when the moon or sun is on the other side of the earth yet still slightly visible, there will still be very noticeable changes in size.
