Original title: Was the site offline / having problems for anyone else?

Hello, I just came back and noticed that the site wasn't working properly. Was this just me or did anyone else experience problems?

I'm browsing through logs to try find the reason, but it could have been just an issue on my side.

Thank you!

EDIT: I think I might have found the cause. I'll keep investigating. Apologies for the downtime U_U.

EDIT2: I have located a database error which seems to be related to a sudden disconnection / shutdown. After that the database wasn't able to work correctly until I rebooted the server. This can only come from a series of docker commands I ran this afternoon. It is weird that these commands don't shut down the database container gracefully, but I'll take extra precautions next time.

I was having problems earlier today, like 1:30pm EST. My frontpage wouldn't load any posts unless I hit refresh a few times and my account wouldn't show anything. I couldn't post either. I tried resetting cache and cookies. When I tried to log back in it just cleared out the fields and did nothing.
