Did avatars get broken with the last update?

i noticed my previous avatar now replaced with the text " avatar".

Attempting to (re)set the avatar in "profile", the file select doesn't take and remains "no file selected" (no error messages issued).

It also looks like avatars of magazines/communities from kbin.social as well as post thumbnails no longer appear on lemmy instances with subscribers, e. g. the following path (to a post thumbnail) no longer exists

or rather it has been changed (addtional media/ in the path) to

Same for community/magazine avatars:

appears to have been changed (addtional media/ in the path) to:

This does not look like a temporary issue, but a persistent issue that effects all communities and posts that have been fedearated before the change.

Maybe it fixes itself, if old posts get edited/changed and/or someone edits the description or avatar of an affected magazine so that an update gets pushed.

Yeah. I think it's just a temp things as various servers catch up.
