Hey everyone!

Now that the PHPStorm (te-hee hee see what I did there?) has passed, we have put some work with our Pixelfed instance and while we felt really at home with the [Glitch](https://pixelfed-glitch.github.io/docs/) devs team, we had to move to [upstream](https://github.com/pixelfed) to receive the latest QoL functions and security patches.

We wish the team all the best for the future and to hopefully find more contributors to help them keeping the project alive ❤️

Having said that, our instance is now up again BUT you will have to follow a few steps to fix the change (due to JS files being cached). I'll promise you these steps won't bother you longer than 30 seconds.

## Chrome / Edge (desktop)

| Step | Action                                                                    |
| ---- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| 1    | Open the site, press F12                                                  |
| 2    | Go to the **Application** tab                                             |
| 3    | In the left column, under **Storage**, click **Clear site data**          |
| 4    | Close DevTools, then hard-reload with Ctrl+Shift+R (Cmd+Shift+R on macOS) |

If the Developer Tools panel is not available, the equivalent is: click the padlock icon in the address bar → **Site settings** → **Delete data**.

## Firefox (desktop)

| Step | Action                                                    |
| ---- | --------------------------------------------------------- |
| 1    | Open the site, press F12                                  |
| 2    | Go to the **Storage** tab                                 |
| 3    | Right-click the domain in the left panel → **Delete All** |
| 4    | Hard-reload with Ctrl+Shift+R (Cmd+Shift+R on macOS)      |

Menu alternative: **Settings → Privacy & Security → Cookies and Site Data → Manage Data**, search for `photomode.gamerstavern.online`, select it, **Remove Selected**.

## Safari (macOS)

| Step | Action                                                |
| ---- | ----------------------------------------------------- |
| 1    | **Safari → Settings → Privacy → Manage Website Data** |
| 2    | Search photomode                                      |
| 3    | Select the entry → **Remove**                         |
| 4    | Reload with Cmd+Shift+R                               |

## iPhone / iPad

| Step | Action                                          |
| ---- | ----------------------------------------------- |
| 1    | **Settings → Safari → Advanced → Website Data** |
| 2    | Find photomode.gamerstavern.online              |
| 3    | Swipe left on it → **Delete**                   |

If the entry is not listed, use **Settings → Safari → Clear History and Website Data** (this clears every site, so it is the heavier option).

## Android (Chrome)

| Step | Action                                                     |
| ---- | ---------------------------------------------------------- |
| 1    | Chrome menu (⋮) → **Settings → Site settings → All sites** |
| 2    | Search photomode                                           |
| 3    | Tap the entry → **Delete** (trash icon)                    |

Needless to say, you will need to log in again once. Your photos, followers and settings are  
not affected and nothing has been deleted.
