Missing images (feddit.uk)

Good day all,

You may notice that some images posted after the 23 August are missing. Sorry about that.

What happened is that I updated some packages through apt, which triggered docker to restart. This caused the pictrs database to become corrupted, but only partly because of the way its db (sled) does things.

I did manage to recover about half of the images through abusing image proxies and browser cache, so there's that at least. The whole of the data is also theoretically recoverable.

Needless to say, I'm going to move pictrs to postgres soon-ish.

Ah, I thought that was just magical internet issues

Thanks for the insight, but more importantly - thanks for looking after this instance
