Final update for today. Well, seems that the backup upload was not executed when the primary upload failed, resulting in an orphan link and failed upload. As they say, always verify your backup code in realistic scenarios, and we failed to do so. As a result I had to delete 88 free upload entries from the database, and 8 from the account ones. Lessons learned, always test that your backup works when your primary is in failed state. This only affected uploads approximately between 2025/02/06 08:13 and 2025/02/06 10:30 UTC. I will be fixing and testing the code with failure scenarios to ensure that when we return OK for upload, we at least have it in the backup. Apologies for any inconvenience or problems caused by this event, we will do better next time. 🫡🙇♂️🙇♂️🙇♂️

While all services returned to normal, we have a few 404 pictures that I’ll restore and recover from our backup storage (yes, we upload to two separate object storage providers). This may take me a little bit of time and effort, so please forgive for delay! 🙇♂️🙏🏻 note1fg4…33rs
