    The pict-rs upgrade is ongoing.

    From what I can tell it’ll be about another 5 hours. I’m going to have to go to bed and check on it in the morning.

    Unfortunately the stock-standard lemmy-ui doesn’t like it that pict-rs is migrating to a new version of database and not serving images, so it’s stubbornly just not working at all.

    Not that I am aware of, and not that it’s not possible, but the protocols are quite different, the Lemmy API, the Misskey API (with various dialects for Sharkey, Iceshrimp and Firefish) and the Mastodon API (with Akkoma, Pleroma, etc) are all very different from each other and even making a third party UI that completely understands and implements a single API / dialect is an enormous undertaking.


  • I think it’s because a lot of her fans were like “hang on, she’s just misunderstood, she’s not really transphobic, just doesn’t want those fake transes going into women’s spaces”, and Rowling kept it pretty vague, open for misinterpretation, not really ever able to be pinned down as actually being provably transphobic in the minds of many.

    But something happened recently and it tipped her over the edge, from keeping her donations low key and her transphobia aimed at the theoretical “not really a woman ‘trans-identified-male’ boogeyman-woman” (who doesn’t really exist), to outright making open donations to anti-trans groups and attacking real trans women.

    All the sudden her supporters are like… Wait, this is not who we thought you meant… Where are these scary men? The ones invading women’s spaces that you were talking about?

    So I’ve completed migration of the pict-rs server to our new infrastructure. I’m not sure what the issue was you were having, as I am unable to replicate.

    Based on the father ambiguous error message, I presume it was returning a “Request timed out” or something.

    Anyhow, after the migration, I’d be interested if you still see errors. Let me know.
