tl;dr: 'tis done. i ran a live migration in proxmox again after hetzner support replaced the cable, and it finished after fourteen hours – so ultimately it was a cable problem (and a source of various hard-to-explain-otherwise hiccups).
also, proxmox is quite polished, and does the work.
mastodon is now running entirely off the nvme storage, which should give it a nice boost (it might not feel faster, but it should feel more smooth), with no noticeable io delays (you wouldn't want to see the io_wait numbers previously).
the next steps include migrating the database to newer postgresql, upgrading the mastodon code itself & ct., and generally filing off as many of the remaining sharp edges as possible.
@kasica perhaps even your image uploading woes went away; but if not, we're in a better position to fix them properly now.
