Please test now, I think it should work again.

I think this should be fixed now, and the instance should allow large image uploads as well as larger animations.

Thanks again guys for reporting this and have a nice weekend btw. :)

I fixed the syntax error when pasting images so that should work now.

Will look at file sizes next…

Yep I can reproduce the problem here too. Cant paste images into posts, get syntax error. Investigating…

Ok I will do some testing today myself and figure it out, hopefully. There hasnt been any updates but perhaps some setting changed with restart of Lemmy. And no updates are pushed to all instances, every instance has to update on their own. But thank you guys for reporting, im pretty sure this can be fixed as soon as i can reproduce it here today. :)

Hi! Let me know the size and the format, its probably some setting that can be changed.

No you didnt do anything wrong. :) We dont ban people here for no reason.

This sounds like some technical issue. Could it be the size of the image, how big is it? There are some Lemmy limits set for this but they can be changed I believe.

I tried it before, it was buggy and my tabs locked up. Also since its based on chrome, its very nerfed when it comes to powerful plugins. I didnt like it. My first impression was positive but no, it feels very bloated.

But if you like it and you feel its better than Firefox for you, thats a good thing.

Yeah. But I think most of us would only last 2 days on a farm, and then come screaming back to comfortable office life.

Excellent :)

Ah, thats a good idea actually, just edit them. :)

I think I figured it out. Has to do with my mitigation of the attack yesterday.

Now new comments and posts are federating to other instances again, but the old comments and posts, im not sure they will federate.

Attackers were hammering a certain endpoint to cause the database to be 100% busy in their attack. So i blocked that endpoint, thinking it would not have an effect on federation. Chat gpt also agreed that it wouldnt.

Chat gpt was wrong. :) So I changed from blocking it to caching it, which is at least going to help prevent further attacks to a degree.

Thanks for letting me know!

Im just looking at new comments or posts in those instances and it all seems to be delayed from the entire fediverse, not just lemmy.today:

https://programming.dev/c/opensource?dataType=Post&sort=New (last comment 13 hours ago, last post 17 hours ago)

https://lemmy.world/c/foss?dataType=Comment&sort=New (last comment 18 days ago, last post 18 days ago)

https://lemmy.zip/c/technology?dataType=Post&sort=New (last comment 5 hours ago, last post 2 hours ago)

Lets wait and see when these instance communities gets new posts and comments and see if the ones from lemmy.today are still missing. Will keep an eye on them. :)

I see some comments not being federated yet, here is one example:

https://lemmy.today/post/42824004 (112 comments, last comment 1 hour ago)

https://lemmy.world/post/39592788 ( 108 comments, last comment 3 hours ago)

https://sh.itjust.works/post/50825191 (105 comments, last comment 3 hours ago)

In this example, lemmy.world and sh.itjust.works has less comments than lemmy.today on the same post.

Normally comments show up right away so perhaps this is a sign of a problem. Will keep looking at it during the day.

Send me a link to a comment or post and what instance you are looking on. :) Thank you!

Was it like that before the attack as well?

I can look into it and make sure we are federating properly. During an attack or after, it wont work, but it should federate as soon as the attack is stopped.

Its ok but thank you very much for asking!

Server costs are small and its not that many problems with the server. We had almost a full month of constant uptime without doing anything, and then this attack ruined that, but thats life.

Keep using the instance, its enough motivation for me to keep running it. :)

Thanks! See you around :)

I dont know. The only thing that makes this instance different is that we dont block any instances and we dont moderate opinions we dont agree with. I dont think we should do those things.

I guess that upset someone. :)
