Hi,

I've been trying to host my own lemmy instance for a while. i've almost got it working (i think). But my problem now is that whenever i try to post something with a picture i get an error SyntaxError: JSON.parse: unexpected character at line 1 column 1 of the JSON data. In firefox i get a 502 bad gateway error pointing to https://lemmy.emphisia.nl/pictrs/image I don't really know why because everything seems to be working

I haven't done this setup myself, but the hostname being 127.0.0.1 is suspect, especially since it mentions a pictrs URL config in lemmy.

yeah i changed that because i was testing. but i now realize that was dumb. ive change both the hostname and the url to pictrs. OMG that just worked..... i feel so dumb rn. it is strange tho because that wasnt working before. Thanks for all the help :)
