I don't mind waiting for things to be fixed what with life interfering with things, but I can't find any activity from Ernest lately. He hasn't been, like... hit by a bus or anything terrible like that, has he?
The issues that started occurring on Sunday turned out to be more serious than anticipated, extending beyond the application code. We are still working on resolving them to ensure the proper functioning of the website, but we need some more time. Apologies for any inconvenience.
I don't quite understand what you mean. The problem is that in such a case, it's challenging to provide a specific estimate. That's why I occasionally provide updates in case the work is prolonged. It seems to me that this is how it works. Issues arose without any interference in the code or infrastructure. I addressed hardware problems, but it turned out that wasn't the only issue. Throughout this entire period, I've been attempting to ensure that the instance operates as smoothly as possible. It should be significantly better now, but I'm still actively working on it. Unfortunately, taking a holiday break here doesn't help either.
Issues like the one that occurred are typically resolved within an hour, hence this post - mainly to quickly inform that work is underway on it. But you're right, I'll strive to improve communication in the future. Your examples gave me something to think about, thanks.
Yeah, It's true. Since Sunday, I've been noting errors that I'm still working on resolving. It doesn't make it easier that it's the post-holiday period, and due to travels and security measures, it's not the easiest task. I'm working to get everything back to normal as soon as possible.
Today, I took care of several overdue formalities related to the project that were weighing on me. Besides the routine refactoring and work on the ActivityPub module, there are a few things I would like to do this weekend:...
Arghhh... Sorry, I replied with a longer message from my phone at that time - at least that's how it seemed to me. Now I've noticed that the response didn't send. In short, there must be an application account on the specific instance due to limits, but catch me on Matrix - we'll discuss it in detail.
Feeling thwarted by the 404, I suddenly remembered there are plenty of curated feeds over in Collections for us to browse. Have updated one of mine to reflect newer communities.
Today, additional preparations, there are likely 2-3 days left before I start working on the new features to be included before the upcoming first release, which is approaching rapidly. During the next update, the API will be unlocked....
Oh man, it's the first time in my life I'm going to a meeting with friends with a laptop in my backpack. Give me a call if you need a server restart or smth ;-)
Alright, it was a long night for me. But I'm going to bed fully satisfied. It seems like I've uncovered most of the issues that were only visible at this scale. I temporarily fixed critical things, and in two days, a update will be released that will preevnt such troubles for some time.
Today, additional performance improvements for components are in progress, which I aim to implement before enabling the API to ensure Piotr has a bit of a more peaceful sleep ;-). In the coming days, there will be quite a few of these adjustments, and I will pause updates to instances for a few days to thoroughly test the...
Today, I added the subscription channel filtering option, allowing users to individually select content from subscribed users, magazines, and domains. This feature will be further improved over time. In addition to the sidebar, this option can also be changed in the user settings, which have also been slightly redesigned....
Codeberg is experiencing stability issues today. I love this place, the entire ecosystem that helped me integrate repository functionality with Matrix chat room, translations, and everything in the spirit of Free and Open Software. Lately, we've been making a lot of noise there. Today, I decided to provide a small support, and I...

Recently voted the most iconic monument in Britain, Big Ben has come to symbolize the sights and sounds of a nation but ever-needy machinery.

It seems that there is a new Polish instance of #Calckey! Hello @admin
Some time ago, @to3k created https://writefreely.pl/, https://szmer.info (Lemmy) is still going strong. Additionally, there are various smaller instances of Pleroma, Friendica, and /kbin.
Machine-learning researchers from under-represented groups say the field desperately needs more people like them to ensure the technologies deliver for all.
In these times, the benefits of writing unit tests are huge. I think that most of the recently started projects contain any unit tests. In enterprise applications with a lot of business logic, unit tests are the most important tests, because they are fast and can us instantly assure that our implementation is correct.

Is Ernest still here?

Issues with the functioning of kbin.social

Last few days are the least functional kbin has been for me since the July exodus. Just me?
Just curious if it's somehow got to do with anything on my end. I'm generally desktop-only, firefox-only.
