It seems like 2/3 other images from this instance won't load at all for me. Am I alone here?

After, I think, v 0.19, there was some upgrade to proxy image hosting or something like that. Instances that have version mismatches have display issues with images.

It’s not you.

Thanks for the heads up. I am still trying to resolve this without a migration... I will try again to get a response from them as they have not replied in a week.

No worries Sal, thanks for what you do. Just tagging you when I see these. I'm not fussed about it.

Ps, I know I've said it before... Don't be afraid to put up a donation link if you switch to something more expensive in the end. :) It takes a village.

Thanks!

Cost is not the bottleneck in this case... The problem is that I am rather ignorant about the options and their benefits/limitations. Moving the images the first time was painfully slow because of those same rate limits, and I expect the next migration to be the same, so I want to make a better choice next time and would rather find a solution with the current provider 😅

Good news! Just got a reply from them and they have increased the connection limit. They did not specify what the new number is, but hopefully it is high enough to not be an issue for the foreseeable future.

So, if you do run into other similar reports after this comment I would appreciate it if you tag me again.

I'm about to start my shift and I just know this song will be stuck in my head tonight.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Ain't nothin' but a heartache.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 2 months ago

Tell me why.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago) (1 children)

I thought about this comment during my shift today at [HOME IMPROVEMENT STORE]… then this song came on the overhead shortly before the end of my shift.

I sang it (well, the chorus anyway) just for you.

The guy at the paint counter will never look at me the same way again.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Is it an orange home improvement store? Because that's where I work. 😮

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 months ago (1 children)

you know it.

appliance specialist ftw. avoid Samsung!

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

If that's you, Jen, this will be the biggest coincidence in my life.

Edit: I just realized I didn't see Jen tonight so it can't be you. (Also coincidence, not convenience.)

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 months ago (2 children)

Tell my why is a song by supermode with a dope remix by maddix. We all deserve better music than manufactured reductive pop.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 months ago

Wait, the example you gave isn't manufactured and reductive? (What even means manufactured in this context? Isn't all music manufactured?) I guess, everyone should just listen to the music they like and most people tend to like easy, reductive music.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

Omg thank you. Thats the first song that came to mind and i was trying to remember its name 🙏🙏🙏

Edit - also you are very right

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 months ago

Chris chan’s anthem.
