[–] jerry@fedia.io 2 points 11 months ago

Ahh - thank you!

[–] jerry@fedia.io 6 points 11 months ago (1 children)

and there was much rejoicing!

[–] jerry@fedia.io 3 points 11 months ago (33 children)

It is possible. I will investigate and work on a fix

I am not aware of a way - but that seems like a good feature request

[–] jerry@fedia.io 2 points 11 months ago

Fedia is still having some stability issues. I set up some automation to detect the problem and then restart the services. If you were to look at that page while the services were restarting, you will see that error

That sounds like a recently introduced bug. I’ll report it.

ok - I took a bit different approach. Since I know what error in rabbitmq's log file is associated with things coming to a stop on fedia.io, I installed swatchdog and set it up to look for that word (which is, btw, "timeout"). I created a script that stops all the messengers, then stops php-fpm, keydb, and rabbitmq. Then it start rabbit, keydb, and php-fpm in order. Finally, it restarts the messengers.

I will be surprised if it works first time, so it may still crash again but I'll be watching

all posts/actions made by any server don't go to every other server. There has to be a relationship between a server and an account on another server in order for that server to "subscribe". Once someone on a server follows your account, your public posts are visible to others on the server. If no one on the server follows you, they would have to specifically search for your username and follow you, and at that point, they would see new posts you make after they followed you.

There are activitypub relays that mitigate this issue a bit, but neither lemmy nor mbin support those.

Is anyone on mstdn.social following your fedia.io account? If not, that is the problem.

I fixed it a few hours ago, but it takes a while to catch up.

There’s a reason for that. About a year ago, Reddit started to implode. I set up Infosec.pub and Fedia to give people an alternative. There was a huge influx of people here creating all sorts of magazines, the same that you would see on Reddit. Fedia ran kbin at the time and it had all manner of problems, and over time people sort of wandered away. Either because they were tired of the problems or because they went back to Reddit.

In any event, what we see in the local magazines is the remnants of that initial migration. I really need to go and clean them up.

Now that Fedia is on mbin, things are much better. We still have issues now and then, but generally things work well.
