Issue with images expected during a 12 hour period today

The server's images are stored and served using object storage.

The object storage provider has sent a message stating that they will perform a 12-hour migration tomorrow, March 10th, from 8:00 AM – 8:00 PM CET, so downtime of the object storage service is expected. Site images will likely not be displayed during this time.

In these past days users have reported issues with image uploads. I suspect that the issue is related to this same migration. If so, images should be back and the upload issue resolved by tomorrow night. If uploads are still causing problems I will investigate further.

I can't post images atm, I assume this is the reason?

Yes, it is pretty frustrating.

I keep sending them messages every day. Today's reply:

This is connected to the migration and there is no ETA currently.

Not very happy with them. I am looking into how to move the images somewhere else.

Was wondering why !science_memes@mander.xyz images weren't loading, seems like they're stiffing you a bit.

@Sal@mander.xyz image uploads appears to still be broken.

Things are getting really chunky now. Is that maybe a good thing? (maybe they are finally doing the migration)
