Sorry about it, it seems like after having nuked the CSAM incident community lemmy-ui has freaked out again about the site logo. Fixed it for now, will keep a close eye on the web UI.

Apps were not affected.

Following the recent CSAM spam the upload size has been further reduced to 50kB.

This might impact community/profile banners, in which case I propose getting in touch and we'll sort it out on a case by case basis.

DigitalOcean has been experiencing a network outage and as such Lemmy Cafe is also affected.

Incident page suggests it should be resolved now.

Current infrastructure costs are ~30 GBP a month. Not crazy expensive, but something that has potential to grow in the future.

Expense breakdown:

• Lemmy UI+backend: 14GBP/month
• Lemmy DB: 14 GBP/month
• Domain: ~2 GBP/month
• Traffic is not reaching the limits at the moment, no extra cost

Everything appears to have gone through quite well, although the ambiguous UI error during the database migration was confusing.
