Important: Temporary Image Downtime Part 2

Submitted ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩ by ⁨Demigodrick@lemmy.zip⁩ to ⁨announcements@lemmy.zip⁩

Hi All,

Needing to do some image migration, so for a short while images will be offline. Cloudflare might cache a few for a bit, but new posts won’t have them.

Quite rare these days I need to do this level of maintenance but hopefully once complete, the site will be a bit speedier and we’ll be in a better position long term.

There’s currently about 400gb of images so this work should help alleviate some pressure on the system.

Thanks

Demigodrick

6 hours laster it’s 41% done, so my maths is way out.

Epic game of watch the progress bar.

Somehow, I am sure we will manage :)

  I was like oh, I’ll just sleep through this and when I wake up it’ll be done.
  
  When I saw how little it had done, I became the living embodiment of the “my disappointment is immeasurable and my day is ruined” meme.

    That’s just an opportunity for a new day-drinking game

    Service is running fine otherwise, and the migration is still going. Take the win, it could be worse :)
    
    A stalled progress bar will send you through all the stages of grief if it locks up for long enough 😬

I was gonna catch up on my art posts but I will wait until the migration is complete. Now I’m just imagining for every post I make, the progress bar gets longer and longer.

  Should be working now, with any luck!
