Looks like S3 (our backing store for the image data) is down. We'll give them an hour or two to fix it, and if they're not back up soon we'll move the image proxy out of the loop and let the images serve directly from their origin until S3 comes back.

Centralization problem on the decentralized social network 😅

Yep. I actually thought this could end up being an issue. They simply integrated the system with steemimg I believe which is still centralized. So if you used IMGUR for example and their service was unreachable for some reason this same thing would happen.
EDIT: It does look like quite a few sites are having problems that use AWS right now. It is pretty widespread. I rebooted my machine a few minutes ago wondering why various sites seemed slow or were not showing images, and then I had a coworker share the aws status link.
EDIT 2: This is actually pretty huge and is impacting a lot of sites, and other image hosting sites as well.

Massive! 😱 But imagine if this was a censorship drive or something similar? But I believe that steemit.com doesn't fully rely on AWS and it wouldn't be impossible to migrate, as sneak said. Still, this is not a drill!

steemit.com runs 100% inside of AWS.

Yes, I presume it's by design. No badness meant by the gibe. Obviously the steemit.com servers do a lot to make blockchain access actually consumer level fast, especially in the caching department. It does bring up the topic though, I see several are talking about it.

Oh, half of the internet depends on S3. Slack, the AWS console, Reddit, tons of sites 100-1000x bigger than us. I imagine it will be fixed very soon.

Not trying to bug you, just saw that people who hadn't set their profile picture are the only ones to show. Though it was a significant observation, no critique of you, you just had it! 😅 Peace
