thanks for pointing to that issue. i dont know how piefed devs reacted to this. so i will give them the benefit of the doubt: it could very well be a quick and dirty solution, never meant to last long.
as the lemmy devs showed, it does not have to be like this at all. but i haven’t seen that much oppinionsted and defensive actions from the piefed devs.

to everyone so worked up about bricks on the 25th floor:
if you search for ‘1412 broadway’ (which OP mentioned multiple times) you quickly find ‘Elsie Rooftop’ bar. which, in fact, is on the 25th floor of 1412 broadway. on opentable, you find this picture of the bar:
which shows, that there are bricks on the 25th floor of 1412 broadway. and that there is a structure in the background, which looks quite similar to what OP posted.
is it proof, that everything about OPs picture and small description is genuine? no! is it enough things that matches, so that I believe them? yes! especially considering that this would be a weirdly well constructed forgery for some internet points…
Some say Alduin is Akatosh. Some say M’aiq is a Liar. Don’t you believe either of those things.

does not contain the exact picture, but definitely part of that campaign.
which one of you took a picture of my jellyfin server?
lots of people already pointed out tools to (kind of) dry run locally. they are great to figure out cryptic error messages.
however, if you have issues with the complexity of the whole pipeline, it is usually easier to just execute the whole pipeline. for that we have the branch prefix
cicd/and treat these exactly as main/master and develop (except the very last deployment step). that way we can see where a whole pipeline will go. and when it is finally doing what it should, we can squash it before merge -> have a nice history.
