Regenerate thumbnails
We increased the quality of thumbnails from 70px to 95px in Funkwhale 1.0. This action removes visual artifacts that affect lower quality thumbnails. You can run the funkwhale-manage command line interface to generate new thumbnails. If you want to keep thumbnails at their original quality, add THUMBNAIL_JPEG_RESIZE_QUALITY=70 to your .env file.
Note
If you’re using S3 storage, the __sized__ folder is located in your S3 bucket.
To generate new thumbnails:
- SSH into your Funkwhale server. 
- Navigate to your Funkwhale directory. - cd /srv/funkwhale 
- Delete the - __sized__directory inside your- MEDIA_ROOTdirectory. By default this is- /srv/funkwhale/data/media. This directory contains the current thumbnails.- rm -r __sized__/ 
- Run the - funkwhale-managecommand line interface to regenerate the thumbnails.- venv/bin/funkwhale-manage fw media generate-thumbnails
