TheDude,

Hey! This is something I am paying close attention at the moment. I plan on making a post that I'll periodically update sharing these details with everyone. For now there this post that I'll be updating before tomorrow with the latest graphs!

TheDude,

Came here to say this. I just unplug the computer and throw it out!

TheDude,

Hey all!

I will be posting an official announcement in the next couple of days regarding the addition of some admins to help out with the growth of user and also touch on NSFW communities. In short, while this instance does allow NSFW content we will need to (at least for the next bit) restrict pornography materials. This is due to a number of reasons which are mainly related to the legal implications. I will go more into detail regarding these reasons in the upcoming announcement.

TheDude,

What communities are allowed to be homed here What communities are allowed to be federated over/subscribed to What accounts homed here are allowed to link to in communities or post as text What the integrated image hoster is allowed to host

These are all great points that I will make sure is included. Thank you!

TheDude,

I agree. In today's world it doesn't feel right not to have a 2FA

TheDude,

I'll be submitting my instance to be considered to the recommended list. I've thrown a nice amount of resources at my lemmy instance and i'm pretty excited to see how it will handle the extra load that is expected!

TheDude,

Will have this done before the end of the day! I will be adding support for the French language as well to accommodate french speaking individuals as well!

TheDude,

Got this completed! Looks like the merge request was accepted and merged into the main already. Thanks for giving the heads up.

TheDude,

Whats the best way for someone like myself to get on an account on a platform to experiment on these AI generated images?

TheDude,

A little update for all of you interested. I allocated the additional resources to the VM and will post some updated graphs once they update with the new configurations. https://sh.itjust.works/pictrs/image/f96f8207-e85e-4553-acca-52622dce9740.png

For those who are like me and like looking at graphs here are some prior to the upgrade.

CPU - 48 hours

TheDude,

The only part I don't have graphed yet is the disk IOs. I'm going to need to invest a little more time to get that metric going captured.

Say you through 1000s of active users to this instance.. what would cause the bottle neck first? CPU, memory, network, disk? I'm thinking probably disk due to database optimization that need to be reworked on lemmy afterwards CPU and then memory.

TheDude,

Prometheus /grafana would be great but I'm using an existing librenms setup via snmp probing

TheDude,

That would be great! I checked your link and will work on completing the steps shortly :)

TheDude,

My biggest concern with your setup is the SD card. SD cards aren't typically known for their write durability. There is a way to use a SSD drive instead however its been a while since I checked the pi stats and might limited at speeds of usb 2. You'll be fine for a small amount of users but you're going to hit a bottleneck pretty quickly if you make your instance open to all.

TheDude,

There are many to choose from. Where are you located?

TheDude,

Welcome! In short it is possible however would require some engineering to include a kubernetes deployment type. That is already more than the typical user can handle so its likely not something the lemmy developers would support themselves and would require some SREs or devop engineers to review and deploy, maintain that type of deployment themselves. That's unfortunately more time then I have to give currently.

TheDude,

No its on a vm.

TheDude,

It's on colocated hardware that I have in a local datacenter.

TheDude,

Welcome! Definitely not abandoned but I agree we need to bring a little more life to the instance. We are open to suggestions by the community

TheDude,
TheDude,

Not sure yet but I'm certain we'll find out next week
