Image comments on Lemmy blahaj but not piefed? Works on other piefeds

When i try to paste an image into a piefed comment on blorp, i get a http 400 error (bad request)

I can post the same image into a lemmy comment and it works fine.

Is this a intended behavior, a problem with piefed, or a problem with blorp?

One wrinkle, i can usually copy entire articles, including images, and paste these as comments in piefed. Turns out i was misremembering and this still fails. Actually it did work once with the Wikipedia fediverse article, but failed the lego 404 article.

I will post some test comments below from piefed blahaj, Lemmy blahaj, and retrofed (piefed).

Please let me know if you have any insights or anything else to try.

NEW INFO: testing on Summt vs Blorp reveals: quota exceeded.

Huh.. I can paste images from this account on piefed

sem@piefed.blahaj.zone · 2 pts · 4d

But if i try the same image on my main account -- 400.

I was wrong, copying and pasting an article with an image also fails on blahaj piefed, but works in lemmy

5 Best Custom HTTP Error Pages

By Simon Dwight Keller / April 8, 2020 / in Tips & Tutorials / 1 Comment

HTTP errors are very common, whether it’s due to server or client issues. They come with black-and-white pages that don’t look appealing — turning away potential customers and hurting your bottom line.

However, it doesn’t have to be that way. You can make custom HTTP error pages that will direct users to take particular actions instead of leaving your site. [...]

Edit - It worked for me directly in the default Piefed interface

It consistently fails on this account (sem) but works on my other account (postsfromwikipedia).

Sounds like it is a bug of some kind... :(

Testing on Summit rather than Blorp gives me more data: quota exceeded. I guess that mystery is solved now bit raises a new one (what is the quota -- probably better not to know the answer).

Trying a different piefed blahaj account

The Fediverse (commonly shortened to fedi)^[2][3][4]^ is a collection of social networking services that can communicate with each other (formally known as federation) using a common protocol. Users of different websites can send and receive status updates, multimedia files and other data across the network. The term Fediverse is a portmanteau of federation and universe.^[5]^

5 nodes in pentagon shape with all diagonals, multicoloured similarly to a rainbow.

Proposed symbol for the Fediverse from 2018, the "fedigram"^[1]^

Works fine here.

Pasting text and images from an article also works fine with retrofed piefed
