Redis Labs made an ugly move but I still think that contributors who don't like this should ask themselves why they contributed to a BSD-licensed (not GPL) project, one that makes profit for SaaS companies
I wonder what people who use C# professionally and describe .NET as production-ready do for living, because this is by far my worst backend development experience: queries that don't translate to SQL, inefficient SQL, frequent "one-million dollar bug" situations due to frontend/C#/SQL behavior inconsistency (things like nullability), GC freezes and OOMs in production, colored function (even in dependencies) ...
I'm thinking about opening a #tootik merch store, because I desperately need winter shirts but also because I'd like to set up a "staging" instance for QA purposes ($5/mo) and collect some funds for work on PostgreSQL+Redis support and horizontal scaling ($$$/mo). Any recommendations other than https://www.spri.ng/?
I'm very glad to have helped. I'll hit you up natively via my tootik account tomorrow. My cert is on Lagrange on my laptop and I'm on my phone at the moment.
@silverpill If an instance loses its entire followers table (without sending Undo activities, so other instances don't know this), is there any FEP for a mass re-follow mechanism?
@dimkr Previously my server (not Mastodon) was failing at processing outbox collection because there was a mix of https and gemini URIs somewhere (I don't remember where exactly).
But now I can read posts from outbox.
Perhaps Mastodon makes GET request to outbox only once, when it fetches actor for the first time?
