If it does the same thing (unlikely), I would turn it off. If it's just discovering and not fetching new posts, I would keep it running.

I wish Lemmy had this feature natively. Because to be honest, Lemmy Federate is a bit of a mud solution.

I would prefer a structure where community data is pulled through relays before a user follows a community and then continues as it is currently after someone follows. That could've make things easier in terms of database size, network and load, but I'm not sure if this can be done with the current ActivityPub spec.

Now that they're out, lemmy.zero?

I think you might be interested in this @Elevator7009sAlt@ani.social as we discussed before :)

[–] iso@lemy.lol 2 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Absolutely. Sometimes I can be hard to understand (since English is not my native language), thanks for the clarity :)

[–] iso@lemy.lol 3 points 3 months ago

Interesting. I didn't realize my instance wasn't federated with Piefed. I'll contact the Piefed admins about this.

However, this issue is probably not related to Lemmy Federate because Piefed.social doesn't even use it.

IIRC Lemmy and Mastodon PMs are different and incompatible. If you can receive PMs from Lemmy users then you should be able to receive auth codes. Currently @rikudou@lemmings.world is adding both Lemmy and Mastodon PMs here: https://github.com/ismailkarsli/lemmy-federate/pull/33

Also software other than Lemmy and Mbin needs to add ‘roleName: Administrator’ to their user webfinger requests. This is because ActivityPub doesn’t have a standard way to expose user roles.

I’m thinking of adding another ways of verifying like DNS based verification but still not sure. Any recommendations are welcome :)

[–] iso@lemy.lol 3 points 3 months ago (3 children)

Of course using the tool :)

[–] iso@lemy.lol 3 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago) (10 children)

Yes, it is just disabled. Lemmy Federate supports every threadiverse software and Piefed is one of them.

Currently Piefed communities can be followed by Lemmy instances but not the other way around.

In general, every fediverse software that support FEP-1b12 and can receive Lemmy-like PM’s can register to Lemmy Federate.

My instance has 82GB of DB size. It is almost two years old. I think you're overestimating.

[–] iso@lemy.lol 2 points 3 months ago

If you update your settings, all entries will be reset. Just click Save button in the management page.

[–] iso@lemy.lol 3 points 3 months ago (2 children)

I didn’t want to manipulate counts. If we had 500 instances registered, that would be problem.

Currently it doesn’t re-subscribe because it’s kind of edge case. It would also be fixed by increasing count to 2. I’m resetting the database every 1-2 months too.

[–] iso@lemy.lol 2 points 3 months ago (4 children)

This seems more like a Lemmy issue. However, to fix this issue, we can unsubscribe after 2 users follows instead of 1 🤔

I'm using EndeavourOS with ext4 file system for daily usage and a dual bootable Windows for gaming. What I want to have right now is getting rid of Windows completely.

When I tried it before, I had to try multiple tweaks for a game and find which one worked on Linux. Therefore, I want to take a snapshot with BTRFS and try it until I find the right configuration.

While I have quite a bit of experience with Linux, I've never used BTRFS. Do you think it's worth it?

I thought about keeping the games on the ext4 system, but I hate splitting the disk. I'm thinking of keeping the games in a non-snapshot volume.

UPDATE: I just re-installed EndeavourOS with BTRFS + snapper + BTRFS Assistant :)

 

I'm tired of removing spam posts from these two communities for the last 2 months. With the decision we made with Quazar; We're removing these two communities until Kbin's moderation improves.

There is almost no real human post, so I don't think we'll lose much. You can see the situation in home instance: https://kbin.social/m/opensource https://kbin.social/m/fediverse

Donationware: you must donate to use it. Not like regular optional donates.

We're having some issues sending emails (thanks to Amazon). Therefore, I manually accepted the existing email verifications and moved to manual verification for the registrations for now.

Also, I am proud to celebrate that we have exceeded the 500th number of users 🥳

I would like to introduce you to the tool I have developed in last 2 days.

As you know, when you create a new community on Lemmy, it is initially only available to your instance until users in other instances follows too. To fix this, this tool automatically follows the community from remote instances.

I have previously published a similar but simpler version at boost.lemy.lol and now I remade it because I didn't like some of its features. This time, instance admins will be able to strictly choose which instances they will allow or not. I'm open to your suggestions about different settings.

Please ask your instance admin to add their instance to this tool. To add it as an admin, all you have to do is log in and activate it from the settings.

https://lemmy-federate.com

Here's some tasks I'll implement in the future: https://github.com/ismailkarsli/lemmy-federate/issues

I’ve been using Mlem as my main app for months and I’m liking it so far. The only lacking feature to me is admin buttons, which are delete/purge a user/post.

I think it is a pretty basic feature. A button and an API request. I can provide a test instance if you need one.

 

As you know, we were affected by the federation delay problem at 0.19. Lemmy developers made fixes for this, but they haven't released the new version yet.

I selected the commits with these fixes and ran that version on Lemy 2 days ago and the problem seems to have fixed according to Federation state tool.

Glad we finally got rid of a mud solution like restarting the server periodically :) Please contact me if you encounter any problems about this.

It is obvious that the single-administrator platforms does not survive. I asked @QuazarOmega@lemy.lol for help for this, and thankfully he accepted.

For those who don't know; He is the person who uses lemy.lol the most (most posts, comments). That's why it seems like there aren't many people to trust more than him :)

 

For an instance that has 366 users at the moment, I think 3 meta communities are too many :) Therefore, I merged the posts to the !meta@lemy.lol community and now everyone can post to that community 👍

I noticed this instance in the All tab. It has 5 users in total but also has around 35k posts. It has posts specifically about Jesus, Christianity and a little bit of Covid.

In general, I defederate harmful instances (full-bot, CSAM, spam-infected etc.) immediately while keeping the ones people may not like but not that harmful like lemmygrad, hexbear to their own choice.

What I want to ask here is, should we defederate from this instance as whole or leave it to the users? Like are we have any benefit from this instance?

If Lemmy had a feature like default blocklist, I'm sure I would add this one there. The community that bothers me the most is: !selfie_testimonies@lemmy.staphup.nl
