Something like this, though we probably don’t need something quite as fancy:
This is coming from trying to upload an image and hitting a lot of errors with pict-rs being unresponsive. It would be nice to have a page to look at and know if I shouldn’t bother trying to upload stuff atm.

I will look into this. Have thought about setting up something for when maintenance is happening.
FWIW Beehaw uses gatus which is easy to setup and customize to your values. Also has some nifty uptime ‘buttons’ to showcase you history. Beehaw live status https://status.beehaw.org
Thanks!
Looks like 19.8 has a health endpoint for pictrs:

Hey, did you ever get a chance to explore this?
I run Uptime Kuma on my personal server, it works as a standalone Docker container if that’s your jam: https://github.com/louislam/uptime-kuma
Of course you probably don’t want to run it on the same server you’re running Lemmy on to avoid it also going down. Personally I run it on a free tier Oracle Cloud instance.
There have been a few outages lately so it would be helpful to have a reference for status and to see communications.
I know being a sysadmin is thankless work, I’m a DevOps engineer by trade :) so thanks for all you do. And if you ever need tips I have my work and personal home lab as a reference.
