Beginning probably tomorrow (12/2/2025) we will be migrating our image hosting to object storage (ttrpg.network)

Just an FYI, as part of our migration off of our current host, it's become apparent that we're going to need to migrate our image hosting to object storage.

The change should be rather seamless from the front-end perspective outside of the migration window, but during the migration window, our image hosting capabilities will be offline. I'm not sure how long it will take (the current image hosting data is fairly large) so it could be a bit of a prolonged outage.

Text posts, and commenting should all work, image hosting and thumbnails will be broken. You can still link to external image hosting such as imgur.com, but it won't generate a thumbnail.

I'll update here when it is complete, but as of right now, i would plan for a potential multi-day outage.

Just an update: after a few hiccups and a late start, its been chugging along; It's around 1/3rd of the way done, currently. Didn't get started until late yesterday, and the process died a few times, but its been running just fine most of today. If i had to guesstimate, it's probably gotten a good ~12-14 hours of run time to get to this point
