Very strange (to me). I think it shows I still have a lot to learn about Linux and permissions.

So, a while ago my instance crashed. I rebooted. All was working again, except the external media storage. Mastodon couldn't write to that drive any longer.

After a lot of trying, I seem to have fixed it by *unmounting* the volume (as root). And now I suddenly can upload images again (i.e. mastodon can write to the media storage drive). 🤔
