June 12 - Server Capacity Update - sh.itjust.works

I’m aware that some of you have been getting some errors loading this instance. This was a configuration that I needed to be adjusted which has since been. Do be patient if we run into other issues, I’ll be continuously working in the back-end with others to better your overall experience. Still a lot of capacity available!

Just out of curiosity, would it help if when posting images we use services such as imgur (or alternatives)? I’m assuming if there is storage issues those type of posts are the biggest culprit.

Thank you for hosting this server @TheDude :)

Yes 100%. Using external image hosting service would reduce how much storage is being consumed

Would be cool if there was a plugin or something to link with imgur, etc.

Have you considered disabling image upload?

yes this is an option however the lemmy-ui which is responsible for displaying this page would still show the option. It could be manually removed and might be something I look more into at a later time.
