Hmmm. I was having issues with images on my lemmy host taking forever to propagate so I used postimages for this one. The gremlin is following me.
I’ll attempt to fix.
Very fitting!
Took me until I saw OP’s answer to realize it wasn’t a joke
Seems to work for me, now.
I’m on ttrpg.network, using the Jerboa client on Android.

So this is why everyone’s getting e. coli.
