I hope that Lemmy will have in a future a server infrastructure like Google to rule instead the web.

I've been unable to make any posts of any kind today. Was there a server update that turned that off?

I fixed it now, was an issue with our picture server. Sry about that.

Phase 1:

URL and title provided

Phase 2:

Body of post provided

Phase 3:

Spin spin spin

And that's where it sticks forever. Longest test run was over an hour.

Indeed whenever I try to upload anything (including the images used in this report that I eventually had to host at imgur) I get this popping up briefly:

Syntax Error

That might be a useful data point.

Strange, this should have nothing to do with the server upgrades. Can you check if there is any additional info in the browser console?

Those dont look related to me. Does it also happen when you make a post without link?

Looks like this issue then, will be fixed in the next release.

I fixed it by restarting pictrs. No idea why pictrs locally stopped doing image uploads, but it was stalling things out. That timeout fix should fix it for the next release.

If I were a browser console, where would I be hiding?

(I'm an embedded developer, not a web one.)

Also what would I be looking for?

I can confirm, I was having this problem too.

I'm having massive troubles with using lemmy.ml since around the time of the update. The website doesn't work at all, #Jerboa crashes on every start, and even in #Lemmur, some operations end in handshake (or other) errors. Furthest point to which I could debug was: When opening https://lemmy.ml and ignoring the erroneous certificate, the browser shows the content of join-lemmy.org This is from using it from Middle Europe, I've seen in another thread that it seems to work from North Americe. Maybe this helps?

Doesn't work for me as well. Have already reported this on the matrix channel. Both admins seem to be offline atm.
