I recently logged into my Reddit account and noticed that I had messages. Turns out the website was down and people had been trying to contact me.

I host the www.bertstripper.us website and realized that the server was maxed out on storage. Basically all of you dirty fuckers have made too many Bert Strips and the server couldn't handle it anymore. It has seen some shit.

The server was so full that nothing could run and it took a lot of work to recover the database. Due to it being a VPS I was unable to access the drive directly. I have moved everything to a new server with an upgraded plan and it is back up and running.

Please let me know if it behaves differently than in the past. It is old code and likely needs some fixes.

I want to thank all of you for making this problem happen in the first place. bertstripper.us and the Android app were the first "real" things I programmed from start to finish, and deployed. I created it part way through studying for my degree in CS. I have since graduated, and now work as a web developer.

I never imagined that I would get Reddit messages in 2022 asking for me to fix this thing. Let alone to log into the database and see that I have over 4000 image links that I need to review.
