Is there a reason why?

Damn, I didn't know it got cancelled. Was pretty exciting to see a new player in the life sim genre.

Hope this isn't the same fate that's in store for Paralives

Yeah this assumes you chose bay, and that max DIDNT learn her lesson about time travel.

Presumably these are the reasons DONTNOD didn't make a sequel, Deck Nine taking over the franchise never sat right with me

I'm sure storage environment matters though?

I'll never understand why Square Enix gave Deck Nine LIS in the first place. Dontnod = GOAT

Perhaps, but on the other side of that coin: Because valve doesn't have legal obligations to make money snd increase shareholder value, they put a lot of money elsewhere. The products they create are awesome (literally the best launcher on PC, Tim Sweeney is probably upset because his is ass) and invest heavily in things better for gamers:

  • digital returns were huge when they first rolled out
  • (IMO) spearheading game streaming with steam in home streaming & the steam link
  • creating awesome games and not milking them for perpetual profit (other than maybe in game items but i don't want to have this discussion)
  • investing heavily in alternative ways to play (steam machines, aforementioned steam link, VR/index, steam controller, steam deck)
  • legitimately spending money to make it possible to game on Linux, reducing gamers reliance on Microsoft/Windows

All images in pictrs returning a 404 (lemmy.browntown.dev)

As the title states, I have an issue where all images stored in pictrs are returning a 404 when trying to view them. You can see an example of this here https://lemmy.browntown.dev/post/27130.

If i check the pictrs docker volume, I can find the image manually and if I curl pictrs_ip:8080/image/original/[image.ext] i can view it in the browser. So I know for a fact that Lemmy is communicating with pictrs to upload the image, but there's something funky going on with viewing.

Hopefully someone here has an idea of where to go with this, I'm at my wits end lol. I've tried:

  • Creating a different pictrs container and using that
  • Pointing to an external ip for pictrs (i.e. 192.168.x.xxx instead of pictrs:8080)

Not sure what to do outside of this?

EDIT: Turns out the solution was to disable "cache assets" in nginx proxy manager! Not sure why that helped, but once I did that everything started working as expected.

Fediverse equivalent of r/OpenSignups? (lemmy.browntown.dev)

Instance not retrieving comments? (lemmy.browntown.dev)
 

I stood up my own instance, and it's federating (kind of?) but none of the posts are showing up with their comments. If I look on the main instance I can see the comments but not on mine.

This also applies to sticky posts not being stickied when i view from my own instance. Is this a bug, a misconfiguration on my end, or a result of servers being overloaded?
