    Nice, I’ll look into this stuff. Pretty cool.

    The weird part is I downloaded a photo that had been uploaded here, and re-uploaded it as the icon/banner (it doesn’t let you use a URL for the icon/banner). So that picture exists multiple times in our storage. It also crashed pict-rs, which in turn doesn’t let Lemmy boot. Initially my browser downloaded a .webp, but I changed the URL in order to download it in .jpg. I don’t have a good program that can edit .webp. So, maybe the problem was that I saved it as a .jpg, when it fact it was a .webp? The banner worked just fine, so I’m not sure. I only cropped the banner image, whereas I resized the icon.

    • Sorry, I just peeked at the config options and have never run any of this so no idea about the interaction with Lemmy or how to troubleshoot that. What I’d do though is spin up a toy instance on another subdomain/locally in a container and try to reproduce it there. Maybe with a copy of the data from production if that’s easy enough to pull off.

      But ya only in retrospect - I wouldn’t have expected changing the banner or icon to be a risky operation.
