I honestly don’t know, one day it just broke for everyone that wanted to use square images (which go straight to Amazon AFAIK) and rectangular images obviously worked since they go to Discorse’s upload dir after being cropped.  
I’ll just shift back to letting discourse handle it anyway since my free aws plan is also about to expire and I’m a cheap ass lol
