Unfortunately the pictrs database migration yesterday seems to have skipped migrating a ton of data.

Since cloudflare is caching our images, almost nobody noticed. We've now been running on the new instance for over a day, collecting new images into a new incomplete db. Fun.

I now have two copies of pictrs running, one with the postgres db and one with the legacy sled-db. Requests that fail against our updated one, will be retried against the legacy one. This should result in all images working properly again for now, while I figure out a better long term solution.

Please let me know if you still see any issues with images loading!

Oh I thought it was just my app not loading a few images ๐Ÿ˜….

Thanks for all the work you guys do though!

I was trying out the photon frontend today (review: good!) and was thinking, 'y'know, this would seem a lot more polished if more of these images loaded properly...'

It's now looking much more polished. Thanks!

I appear to have a picture still missing from https://lemmy.ca/post/38253364

Unfortunately I think we lost a few images right after the migration =(

I replaced it.

Today none of the pictures more than about 15 days old appear.

Can you link me to an example please? Pictrs has been giving me troubles, but everything should be working now.
