Update: if you're seeing this text, then we've completed the migration :) ๐
TL;DR: We are downgrading the server.
Currently, the instance has a monthly cost of approximately $200, and we can barely cover this expense with donations. But more importantly, we think that the current server specs are too much for the needs.
We are the 3rd instance with the most users and one of the most stable instances with 99.55% uptime, but still more than half of the server components are not used.
Therefore, we will slowly downgrade the server to use donations more optimally. By the way, thank you to everyone who supporting us ๐
- Old specs: 16 core, 48 ram for 160$
- New specs: 12 core, 32 ram for 125$
The migration will start in 12PM UTC, you can check from your own timezone from here: https://notime.zone/NdyvH8JtJkJmZ
Instance will be available with a few downtimes, but posts/comments after 12PM will be deleted. Please follow this post...
Not sure if this is the place to say so, but I just tried to post a 3.7MB image, but I received an error that it was too big. What is the maximum size image allowed? Or did something wrong happen?
Max file size is 20mb but we have some resolution restrictions too like 8k max width or height.
Hmmm... The one I'm trying to upload is only 2304x1728, jpeg format. I was able to upload a similar sized image just fine a few days ago. I thought maybe the limits might have changed with the migration.
We're having some issues with the Lemmy media server. Sometimes we get errors like the one you experienced and we haven't found a solution yet. Its just not mature yet. The only thing I can suggest right now is to upload it to a different site and share it here unfortunately.
Could you post here when and if you solve the issues withe the media server. Thank You.
Can you try again? I changed smth. @[email protected] @[email protected]

Looks good, was able to upload a 1.3M image that previously gave the error "too large". Edit: Also successfully uploaded 2.9M image. Thank you for working on the problem.
