It's probably related to the redirect.

That was my initial thought, but in the end it was related to pictrs. It was throwing sever errors due to not being able to find pictrs images.

Just as a heads up, I noticed that your user avatar doesn't seem to be loading properly, and going to it directly gives a The image https://.... cannot be displayed because it contains errors. message, which also occurs with your instance's site logo as well. Pictrs might still be having some issues for you, or if you made any major configuration changes you may need to re-upload those images.

Thanks for the heads up. You're absolutely correct. To delve a bit deeper, in case you're curious: my oversight in not mounting the mnt directory for Pictrs results in a reset of both the database and manifest each time the system restarts or updates. As a result, even though the entry is stored within my instance's object storage, the corresponding manifest and database entries are missing. I will indeed need to reupload them. Once again, thanks. On a related note, I have openings in n my moderation team. If you're interested, I would genuinely welcome the opportunity to collaborate with you. Honestly, I'd welcome the chance to collaborate with all the kind-hearted individuals in this thread who took the time to test my instance. Thanks, everyone. This is what makes Lemmy special.

I appreciate the deep dive, these sorts of things always have my interest!

And of course, if there's anywhere I can help I'd certainly be happy to!
