I’m getting a 100% failure rate attempting to upload images today. Specifically, the POST https://lemm.ee/pictrs/image endpoint is returning a boilerplate 500 error.

It’s actually been flaky for the past couple weeks, but up until today, just repeating the upload a few times gets it to work.

This also was an issue about 3 months ago, but resolved itself within a week or so.

Images are in the 100KB to 200KB range, well below the documented 500KB limit, and my account is about 1.5 years old, so as far as I’m aware, it’s nothing on my end.

    I’d like to add my experience to this! Profile picture can’t be uploaded with a 500 error.

    I get the notification: JSON.parse: unexpected character at line 1 column 1 of the JSON data

      Yup, exactly what I’m getting. That’s nginx returning a boilerplate 500 error page, which is decided not parseable JSON.
