Sorry about the image issues. We know about the issue, and Kaity will be looking at it today. Our matrix instance came under a pretty serious attack by transphobes this last week, and keeping it safe has been our big focus, so this has sort of lingered.
Yay, thanks for the update!
Damn, sorry to hear that. Thanks for all you do to keep this Lemmy up and running!
is the issue also affecting profile pics/banners or is that just me?
I believe so. Kaity has tried a couple of quick fixes, but it's still an issue. We'll be upgrading soon though, and will get it fixed when that happens!
Catbox.moe works pretty well, is free, not being monetized, and otherwise just really handy!
I am almost universally unable to reach catbox.moe or view any images from them.
Really? I can view posts with catbox images and have a recent post with a catbox image that other people could see :/ I remember reading some countries dislike catbox.moe so perhaps your DNS blocks them? Could you try temporarily switching to another DNS to see what happens?
