heres a test, can you see it?
its working for me
additionally: Catbox and Quad9 DNS have an ongoing beef with each other, usually things get fixed after a day or so and then start up a month later …
YES!! They wouldn't resolve files.catbox.moe for me! removed them from my forwarders (now just Cloudflare and Wikimedia DOH) and what do you know, all my problems are solved. Fuck Quad9, dodgy DNS.
Good to know thanks, and also that sucks lol but I'm glad they're able to generally sort things out reasonably quickly.
I'll just have to be patient.
I also have varying success with catbox. But that has been going on forever.... Some days it is fine, some it is not...
Huh, well at least it's not just me, or the instance I'm on, I guess. Gotta assume it's an issue on catbox's end then, which is a shame, because I can't really do much about that, and do like it, I just wish it worked consistently..
I cannot see catbox images. If I'm lucky, I'll be able to see a thumbnail and make out what it is. Otherwise there's nothing.
Ah, thanks. I guess it's definitely an issue with their server then, rather than anything on my side. Shame.
I don't even know what catbox is but from the context I'm going to assume it's an image hosters for cat pics
Just image hosting, not cat specific lol
catbox.moe (though currently not loading)
They are just like Imgur, allowing up to 200MB, which can include videos, gifs, etc.
It’s on and off, in my experience. Right now it’s working, but it used to never load for me. Which is a shame, because a lot of people on Lemmy seem to use it.
Yeah, same, it wasn't a noticeable issue before, but suddenly I was getting loads of issues. Since I recently moved instances I thought it might be related, but clearly it's on their end and fedi-wide, and you're right, it is a shame not only because so many people use it, but so many people use it because it's a great alternative to the corporate options we generally have now (imgur and such).
I guess as with most things off the main stream, we just have to be a little more patient.
Catbox has always been a problem for me. Sometimes it'll work for a day or two and then not work for another month. I emailed them and they said they're not doing any blocking on their side.
whatever.
