502 Post-Mortem

Days late because I was in the middle of an Olympic gold level depression crash out when the 502 happened. Had to pause to fix the site and then get back to it for a few more days (or more)

502 was because the droplet ran out of space so I had to upgrade the droplet size. I had to have a whole fucking phone call to get escalated into getting access into my digital ocean account. Have that, so we should be fine now as far as size. we are at double capacity. Next steps for me are to:

Clean out old backups so we have more space beyond that

See if I can automate regular backup deletion

See if I can optimize image storage in some way

These are things I did not future proof for because I expected this place to get 3 posts, not checks notes 18.7k.

That’s all, sorry for the down time and lack of communication, I don’t have any PS3 or PSP games to give out unfortunately
