Yesterday we had a bit of an outage with image storage on our instance; Got some messages about it at one point, but that said, everything should be back up and running. Is anyone else running in to issues? I had one user mention that they had a problem this morning, but I wanted to see if anyone else was running in to problems.

Let me know! If there's issues, we can get to the bottom of it, and get things hammered out.

I had some issues with images being replaced with placeholders. My profile picture in the top right is still affected, but I think that might just be due to caching.

Edit: Refreshing fixed it so I guess it was caching.

Apparently my issue was a false positive. It seems Lemmy doesn't like large images (even if small in size) but the message saying "too many pixels" was off-screen at that time.

I resized the image and reuploaded. Everything seems fine now.

yeah, i think that's actually a setting on the lemmy side, you can restrict the size of uploads to prevent abuse and such. We're using whatever the default is, i've never changed it.
