User avatars not in S3 but served via discourse_cdn_url

While setting up our S3 cached with CloudFront, and origin assets cached with via another CloudFront subdomain, I saw that the user avatars are still hosted and served via https://cdn-origin.xxxxx.com.

Is this correct, or should they not also uploaded and delivered via cdn-uploads from the S3 bucket?

Avatars, Stylesheets, Javascripts for themes and others are still served from the app, so they are served via DISCOURSE_CDN_URL and not via DISCOURSE_S3_CDN_URL.

Moving some of those to DISCOURSE_S3_CDN_URL is a long term goal, but there are trade-offs in complexity.

Understood, thanks for confirming that all is working as it should then.
