Comment:

 The fixes I've tried work for a minute (maybe a day) then I started having
 the same issue again.

 "Of note is that the images were always uploaded, they just showed as
 broken in the media library and in the posts, when tried." --- This is
 exactly what's happening to me.

 I went back and checked all the code I had edited and it was still in
 place. I reverted it, tried each one, one by one, again and I'm back at
 square one.

 > I don't think the issue is fully understood judging by the threads I've
 seen.  This weekend, I moved two sites to different providers, and when
 they looked ok, went ahead an upgraded WP from 4.4.3 to 4.52, along with
 all plugins.  Both sites had the image issue.
 >
 > I tried all of the various workarounds (SetEnv MAGICK_THREAD_LIMIT 1 in
 .htaccess, adding the lines to functions.php in child theme, applying the
 fixes from the patch, verifying permissions, verified PHP settings were
 above the problematic ones listed) without success.  There was a youtube
 video about changing PHP's reporting errors, which silenced the http
 errors but didn't fix the underlying problem.  Rather than update imagick
 from 6.7.2-7, i elected to downgrade WP.
 >
 > I put in place the pre-upgrade public_html directory (from prior to the
 migration) and changed db_version in wp_options from 36686 to 35700.  This
 was effective.  Hopefully all the db changes are backwards compatible
 (couldn't find documentation on the db changes).
