It was removed deliberately during the reddit exodus in order to direct new Lemmy users elsewhere. Rather than to overload lemmy.ml further.

Good bot.

Have you raised an issue on github for this? Its the best way to inform the devs.

Yeah, I’ve gone over 24 hours now without it occurring… but not calling it “fixed” until at least a week.

I’ve been seeing similar since upgrading to 0.18. Upgraded to 0.18.1-rc.9 yesterday… haven’t seen it reoccur again… yet.

Here is an example I happened to be at my PC for:

Your instance must be very new, very few users, very inactive… or all of the above. I stood up aussie.zone just under a month ago, Postgres DB is currently 9.6GB.

Yep, that is nearly but not always the case.

Nope… thats what I’m talking about… image posts to remote communities, with the images being sourced from my instance. Like I said, next time I spot it I’ll dig into it further.

What software is your instance running?

Yeah profile pics are fine. I’m specifically talking about image posts. Next time I spot one I’ll see if the post came from a user on my instance. If not, I have no idea why the post image would be on my instance.

Yeah post content I understand. Linked or posted images though are not consistently handled, so I’m not sure what circumstances lead to my instance pulling the image from a remote community.

That may explain it… point being, content for remote communities isn’t entirely “remote”. I’d like to understand what goes where a lot better. I’ve not found it explained anywhere, and I’m not a coder so can’t just “read the code yourself”.

That isn’t entirely true. I’m not exactly sure why, but I’ve definitely seen image posts made to remote communities that are hosted on my instance.

This got a genuine giggle out of me. I’ve saved it.

Yep, exactly that. Take screenshot (Win+shift+s) then paste (ctrl-v) into the post box

You can paste screenshots straight into a Lemmy post and it is automatically uploaded and linked for you. I use this to paste whatever I’ve just captured with Win+shift+s

I’m using S3FS to achieve the same thing, but without modifying the ansible config or using native object storage within pict-rs.

This allows for deduplication

Really? I’ve found uploading the same image to pict-rs multiple times gives a different hash. It does not seem to dedupe at all.

Awesome, thanks for the links!

Lots more here, but I think these are the best.
