DNS issue may be fixed on my end. Appreciate the work.

Just came to report I had the same issue message as Firefox and Chromium on Cromite for the last few days. It works now though

Audio-only playback either needs some love or I fucked up something while uploading (though the file plays fine if I right click and chose download), it only seems to play the first segment/first 2 seconds:

Post in thread 'Space King'

Sep 2, 2026

Decided to redo the song I posted earlier, plus another one (can't get the inline audio thing to work, though).

eta: editing works, seems like only one file made it through.

Clicking a video to pause doesn't work if the pause button is hidden due to size (e. g. on vertical videos).

For example on the video here you can click anywhere to start playback but clicking again to pause doesn't work (have to enter fullscreen to pause): https://kiwifarmsaaf4t2h7gc3dfc5ojh...hreads/gunther-fehlinger.171668/post-25395574

Same issue here.

Can unpause, but can't pause. Most detrimental while phonefagging, in my experience.

The thumbnail conversion into AVIF for animated images with alpha channel is weird. Transparency gets removed. WebP specifically also stacks frames on top of each other.

WebP thumbnail & full:

Animated WebP conversions also take far longer to process than GIFs. In some instances I've had the server fail to process them due to timing out.
On this note, I've also had a 4 MB WebP time out when uploading as an avatar which seems confounding since (AFAIK) the site only reprocesses them as WebP. A 3 MB GIF of the same thing went through fine after a bit.

Spoiler

For reference,
GIF (3.79 MB)


WebP (1.81 MB)


By my count, the GIF here took 15.5 seconds from when I dropped it into my post to finish processing and insert itself, and the WebP 55.6 seconds..

There've been a few times where I make a reply, and then see someone else's post a page after the post I replied to that I'd like to quote in my original reply so that I'm not double posting. However, I can't just copy the quote or it only copies the text inside the quote, and not the quote itself. And I can't edit a post to add a quote, either.
Edit: It appears if I type a letter before quoting something and just copy through the quote and the letter, it'll copy the damn quote then.

@Null you should make a feature where messages tagging you get sent directly to your brain.

Getting a "403 Forbidden" error when I try and download the video from the following post: https://kiwifarms.st/threads/post-videos-of-people-dying.86179/post-25426329

This is the first video I've attempted to download today and the first one I've encountered this with.

Video URL itself is: https://uploads.kiwifarms.st/data/video/9507/9507580-f6a0ed2b62cbb0acb47e0dc274ab2a83.mp4

ed: fixed, thanks!

There was a glitch that was mentioned here earlier involving thread views where they would be locked to being only one higher than the number of replies in the thread. It seems to have resolved itself for some threads like the DrWitnesser thread and several other PG threads that were affected by it. However, I noticed that it has returned on some of the most recent PG threads and might be affecting all newly posted threads again:

I can't change the frame of my profile banners. Is it because the image is too small?

 

[Gregis]

unless I'm missing something, the tartarus verification has made the front page login box unusable because it hasn't been added there, so you type in your username and password, hit enter, and then fail because you didn't verify

If the Capatcha needs to download a bunch of files, won’t that make the site even more fragile during a DDoS attack?

You should be coming in via TOR during a DDoS attack, that won't be an issue then as the captcha data will be via TOR as well.

 

[Oh!]

I like the CAPTCHA verification because it makes me feel like I'm checking the charge on a Duracell battery.

Those were a scam, they never read right

You're not downloading a bunch of files. You're doing a step-by-step encryption of data. This wastes bandwidth intentionally because our primary attacker is a gay pedophile on either Tor or rVPNs that bill by the gigabit.
