The 4 weeks of wait for posting pics shouldn't be valid for profile pics BTW.

[–] JakenVeina@lemm.ee 1 points 1 week ago

Agreed, but my account is about 1.5 years old, so shouldn't be an issue, regardless.

Could you upload an example image which does not work somewhere else and share it with me so I can try to reproduce the issue?

Can you share the exact error you are getting as well?

It seems to go through for me:

[–] JakenVeina@lemm.ee 2 points 3 weeks ago

Well, I would, if the issue hadn't self-corrected again today.

It's pretty much just what /u/irelephant posted here. There's very little actual info present, just an HTTP status of 500 with a boilerplate nginx response page.

When it inevitably starts happening again, I'll be sure and take some captures of the full request/response details.

Interestingly, I was able to upload these two screenshot snippets to lemm.ee, but not the game screenshots I was trying to post. I suppose that means there's SOMETHING weird about the game screenshots, but generate them the exact same way every time, including the one above that you were able to re-upload successfully.

So this is an instance issue? I use Lemmy primarily through Boost on my phone and have never been able to upload an image directly. Same error as the OP, only I also get a 403 error.

[–] JakenVeina@lemm.ee 2 points 3 weeks ago

Pretty sure it's specific to lemm.ee, yeah, since my fallback when it's not working here is to just hop to lemmy.world.

[–] Irelephant@lemm.ee 2 points 3 weeks ago

Yeah, its giving a 500 sometimes: Funnily enough, I was able to upload this, so @sunaurus@lemm.ee it seems to just affect posts. If I refresh right after a failed upload, my profile picture shows a broken image.
