GOOD: Someone recommended to me the other day an automated posting aid, which would be an enormous help in my being able to “drip” daily content to my sublemmy via a bot, leaving me space and time to work on longer-form posts.
BAD: A week or two ago I realised that Imgur had been dropping my content over a surprisingly short delay period (~six months), breaking likely the majority of older posts. I think I’ll slowly be able to restore at least the lead images, but with something like 400 posts to get to, it’s going to be a PITA, and going to take time, daggit.
GOOD: Lemm.ee’s issues with not accepting image uploads (I and others still have no idea why, given that our host admin has pretty much retired from interacting with the users) have been thankfully easing off lately, allowing me to work on stuff like recovering from step 2 and restoring some whole posts here and there.
BAD: Restoring multiple images posts is… ugh, going to be a real slog that will probably never get done properly. First, because somehow I seem to have misplaced a certain amount of the original image content, second, because it takes a lot more time than simply restorying a post’s lead image, and third, because lemme.ee only accepts up to 500k images (and bless 'em simply for that!), which unfortunately isn’t always up to displaying full pages properly.
GOOD: There have been a few user posts recently, which is always nice to see, and gives me hope that maybe just maybe the sublemmy can be self-sustaining one day. 🙂
