Test post

I got som weird behaviour, like nothing worked very well, with 0.19.0 so I updated to 0.19.1 and after quite a while (small instance, beefy PC) it starts to work again, it seems.

Except I am now a moderator everywhere. Maybe it doesn’t work, I won’t try, except asked, so can someone make a post that I can sticky or delete just to see what’s happening?

Cheers!

Some vitamines can be had too much too, so “overdosing” is a real possibility. A and D for example.

Thanks again, I’m at a new job, it’s summertime, but soon I think I’ll dig into the whole compiling Lemmy thing checking out how it all works :-)

I’m a huge complexity & somehow network nerd so at least I’m going to see some interesting stuff and Rust seems to be quite abordable for an old-timer.

Hello RoundSparrow, and again thank you for your help when I was in trouble setting up my little instance!

It runs well now :-)

Just as a backdrop I’m curious about how Lemmy works (I’m building a sharing protocol & implementation, decentralised, takedown safe, rugged, … It feels like how Lemmy is built on top of its protocol) and I love Lemmy and how it “federates” 💗 so I want to know more about it all.

When you say packages get forwarded to whatever instance wanted (if I understand correctly) you don’t “unpack” (e.g check if it’s a valid request) which seems logic, the end instances does do the security check right? I mean if the end instance doesn’t check, you checking won’t help them out.

But then again, if I understand you correctly, the trust is split in two; the poster from A posting on B, then B sending all its posts to C, D, E, …

Which would mean it’s enough to trust B to trust A. If you trust B enough :-)

Guess I’m off to learn Rust and try to compile all this :-)

Thanks again, and sorry for the ramblings. It’s late here and I have not very much time.

Ha ha yeah it’s not easy peasy when you start with these kind of things for sure, thanks for the link! It seems it shows the day to say stuff (and the pubkey embedded in the json) thanks again.

So if I want to validate a user outside of the Lemmy service (the one that runs in a docker on my lemmy-box), I “just” have to get the public key from the Lemmy database and validate the digest/signature?

Cheers!

Thanks, “subbed” !

Okay thank you very much!

Okay so it’s the lemmt server running my instance that checks it is the right user. Do you know how it is done ?

I reread your post, so it’s a signature in the http call?

Thanks, seems like a reasonable idea!

I’m using the docker install, do I have to rebuild it, can’t seem to find that parameter anywhere?

3 dayis later:

 1357 ./out/data did not match any variant of untagged enum AnnouncableActivities
  772 ./out/expected value at line 1 column 1
 1086 ./out/Record not found
16426 ./out/data did not match any variant of untagged enum PageOrNote
45962 ./out/Timeout occurred while waiting for a slot to become available

I’m a keeping an eye on this.

Sounds like enshittyfication for series.

I made some analysis on a 150MB log output (see below, each line is a warning of the type listed)

So some seems (or are at least rare) to be quite harmless, but there’s two who concerns me (BTW; they are all brought to attention by this line: WARN lemmy_server::root_span_builder: HereTheErrorMessageBelow) :

• 32754 times: Timeout occurred while waiting for a slot to become available
• 16670 times: data did not match any variant of untagged enum PageOrNote

Also maybe this might hint on a software bug:

• 380 WARN lemmy_server::root_span_builder: expected value at line 1 column 1

Just FYI it’s running on a fresh Linux Mint install on a 8-gen hexa core on a 1Gb/s/0.7Gb/s internet line so I do not think I’m limited in any way.

Is there any way of digging up why this is happening? I downloaded the sources but I’m a C/C++ programmer, not a Rust(?) one :-) but who knows if I can get a couple of pointers …

Cheers

Yes I did, now I removed them as they block all other instances and not as I thought just “added” them to my all or something … Thanks !

Oh man, thank you all !

I (obviously?) thought that with the “Federation enabled” checkbox ticked it would federate as before but Plus the added ones.

I’m removing all the the Allowed Instances…

Hello all, just to tell that the move to 0.18.3 seems to have fixed the problem :-)

At least in the shell output 🙃

Hello,

Yes but only adding, I have no blocked ones.

I Did mess up my initial config though and had image links pointing on 0.0.0.0 instead of Lemmy.mindoki.com, guess I’ll have to curate my database manually …

Hello!

I’m not saying I have the answer but maybe more knowledgeable people might come by if there is a discussion going on…

What about you subscribe to the community, and then post there?

It’s not ideal of course.
