Any does every Youtube embed I've ever seen posted almost always look like one of these?
IE many posts are "Hey guys check this out":

How can I fix it? If it can't, could people be more encouraged to use alternatives? If It's not just me and Youtube is such a shit that this so often happens, why do people bother using it?
 
Mr. Null why does KiwiFarms hate the diacritic ~ ? It can display it no problem alone, but the moment you add it to a letter it seems to not work.

Testing purposes: ã ẽ ĩ õ ũ ỹ ñ

Only half of the letters worked, despite all of them being ones where the tilde should be displayed.
 
the root ns is updating to dnspod. the .rs nic is very slow and requires payment to change the ns records. I am moving everything off AWS and closing my account with them.
 
I'm assuming since it's intermittent, the random borked loading/new posts page errors I've been having is you messing around in the back trying to fix things, correct? It's the reason I'm not really posting them because they seem to be randomly intermittent as if you were maybe working on things and I don't wanna clog up the thread with shit you probably already know.

There any other place to follow for updates or is this a "twiddle your thumbs and be fucking patient for 2 seconds" kind of deal?
 
Way too often when I try to upload a large file, namely a video, the progress bar will freeze midway through and after some time it'll fail and say "Something went wrong".
This seems to only happen in LibreWolf (and presumably other Firefox-based browsers). On Ungoogled Chromium it'll instead resume after some time.

From my outsiders experience,
the upload gets completely fucked if the connection gets interrupted at all. So given the constant DDoS maladies the site experiences it's just a matter of time until enough packets drop and the upload gets aborted.
You'll have to pray for a quiet period that lets the upload get through, or shrink the file. IE better encoding of videos. Remember the 128mb per hour rule for video, anything more means you can and should shrink it.
 
I was able to attach a 128MB video without issue. I think fixing the disk io issue (the reason the site is faster) may also impact uploads positively.
 
Are png files only showing up for anyone else as links to the image instead of the image itself?

No, uploaded a couple just now and it works fine for me, seeing them in this thread as well as an image and not a link.
 
Website looks like this on Brave and Chrome mobile

edit: fixed now, the use thumbnails thing finally worked
 
pages are loading in 3 seconds or less on Brave for me. this is fantastical, thanks Jersh
 
It is always broken. I don't care to fix it.
well, FWIW it's working again
I guess in future when it crangs I'll just take that as my cue to log off and go touch grass for awhile
