An other question about speed. I have this installed on a Uberspace server - and it is very slow. When I click on the menu entry (lets say "Group" "Friendica Support") it takes about 10 or more seconds until I see the page in the browser (Firefox). How to speed up this?

noidea,

@tin there are others. I heard of netcup and I am here: php-friends.de/

noidea,

@bionk @tin the smallest VServer .. (S) .. my other 2 websites are on uberspace. But I wanted more hdd for the friendica ..

@helpers
Hi there.

As the new friendica stable version has come out recently and apparently there aren't mayor problems with the updates I wanted to ask you to consider some suggestions about the helpers/coders/admins etc pp setup we have on forum.friendi.ca

In general terms speaking when ever someone comes up with some bug report or feature request some comment show up saying "go to github and ..".

There are several reasons I consider this is not to helpful and that we should find at least some work around. First of all we all know and are aware by whom github is owned and that there are more than one of us out here who don't like to go to that site for that very reason. At the same time it is where the coding community is, where cross over communication between the fedeVerse platforms can happen and where in any case recruitment and help request for none friendica specific issues can be found or can be published. So even as we have git.friendi.ca as a a very important back up plan and backup tool it most likely will not become part of our production scheme in the near future.

Than there is the friendica community itself, a whole lot of people that are using friendica and have access to the forum.friendi.ca server with the few forum pages that do exist as of now. These are people that might not be skilled in coding itself but could do bug research, publish bug reports, have feature requests or ideas, could help out with standard helpers Q&A or even translation hints or pointing out missing translations.

I do guess that we might have more than one community member out there that is not available to sign up to another site like github or transifex (I guess that's still our translation site?) but would help out if we'd had some more forumpages like @bugresearch, @tutorial, @featureRequests. I could envision even people who love to dedicate some time to administer a forumpage like @tutorial that once some text has been created by the community in such a forum could republish such a text from that very forum page sorting that text into a given category of that forumpage.
Like to say, there is lot's of information that get's discussed or explained and than just "goes down the drain" and get's lost in the stream instead of being pushed into some category of the helpers page where it could be found easily by others.

A bugResearch forumpage for example could have a pinned post containing a bug research template like the following so people could post there findings in the first place and every once in a while someone who does have a github account and signs "responsible" to port those reports to github simple copy-pastes those reports to github with a link to the respective forum post.

Example bug research template for a @bugResearch froumPage on forum.friendi.ca:

noidea,

@utopiarte I believe Github is owned by microsoft. Why can you not use it? Maybe it would be easier than running an issue forum. I did not like it, too, when it was bought by Microsoft. But even my distro (void) uses it.. so hey. I don't love it but for now .. it's okay.

noidea,

@utopiarte I found the friendica devs very friendly

Bug | Friendica: Das hat irgendwie den Rahmen zerschossen

Eben habe ich in meinen Stream/Timeline folgendes gesehen:

Rufe ich den Beitrag einzeln auf, sieht es genauso aus. Der Link zum Originalbeitrag ist hier. Ich habe aber keine Ahnung warum das bei mir so dargestellt wird.

Tags: -01-16

noidea,

@sascha eins der Bilder ist ein animiertes gif (?) vielleicht hat's damit zu tun

noidea,

@sascha I currently writing an issue for that on github

noidea,

noidea, to admins

Hello ..

In SSH sessions on my VServer, I often see PHP errors appearing just in the terminal, when I am inside a directory or even when I am working with the nvim editor.

I think it must be some "stdout" or "stderr" or something, some "Linux thing" where the errors are outputted to.

Maybe somebody knows this phenomenon, that errors appear everywhere , no matter what, and can help.

I am using Alpine Linux and PHP 8.2.14

noidea,

I have...

display_errors = Off
display_startup_errors = Off
log_errors = On
ignore_repeated_errors = Off
ignore_repeated_source = Off
report_memleaks = On
error_log = "/var/log/php82/error.log"
noidea,

I just saw that /var/log/php82 had no permissions for the "friendica" user... only root:root
I have just changed this and now I saw the first "fatal error" I ever saw in that logfile:

[15-Jan-2024 10:26:03] NOTICE: fpm is running, pid 9177

noidea,

thanks. I found that my webserver user had no write permissions to /var/log/php82. I am observing if it is better now..

z428, to helpers

Quote-sharing posts in Friendica and crossposting them over to Tumblr somehow feels a bit unpredictable: In some cases, on Tumblr, images embedded in the original post will show up, in some, they won't. They don't really look all too different on Friendicas side. How to figure out what's happening in here...?

noidea,

@z428 maybe with the browser development tools. (rightclick -- inspect)
maybe you can see something

Frage | Friendica: Fehlende Bezüge

Ich hatte eben unten stehenden Austausch und frage mich da natürlich ob mir irgendwelche Informationen fehlen bzw. ob es bei Mastodon Bezüge gibt die ich so nicht sehe.

Wäre schon interessant zu erfahren ob man da mit Mastdon mehr sieht.

noidea,

@sascha guck doch mal bei mastodon ob das ne Antwort auf etwas war oder doch nen eigenständiger post

Hello !

I would like to understand why I don't see certain reshares from @lizzischmidt (everything she reshares from @giacomo_bencista ). Here is an example post:

pod.mttv.it/posts/cc60a0608fb9…

The same post on another Diaspora pod:

diaspora.schoenf.de/posts/cc60…

I can not find these posts via my friendica's search (no results), but I can find the user @giacomo_bencista .

Thanks if somebody has got an idea .

softmetz, to helpers

@helpers Since version 2023.12 loading of my personal posts (the house icon) is very slow compared to all other feeds. Do others encounter that kind of behaviour?

noidea,

@softmetz I had it, too, until I have changed some mysql conf value to some 6GB if I remember correctly. I can't remember the name of that value but I can look it up when I am back at the PC.

noidea,

@softmetz just in case: it was innodb_buffer_pool_size

Hello and merry christmas,

I can't add a certain diaspora contact ( diaspora.schoenf.de/u/jochen ). Some info messages pop up. I did not have problems adding diaspora contacts until now.

Der Netzwerktyp wurde nicht erkannt. Der Kontakt kann nicht hinzugefügt werden.

Die angegebene Profiladresse liefert unzureichende Informationen.<br />Es wurden keine kompatiblen Kommunikationsprotokolle oder Feeds gefunden.<br />

does somebody understand what is happening there? I don't understand. and I have informed the admin of diaspora.schoenf.de (who is the that contact).

noidea,

@tux oh oh.. i don't know. . Maybe he Wonders why so many new Friends... 😅

noidea,

@utzer i Just added Somebody on diasp.org who was already following me. That worked.

Summing up tests "activating" and "deactivating" @[Mentioned people only] on #mastodon. Apparently there have been some changes.
(from v3 to v4?)

You can't add more people into already existing posts. They won't be able to display it nore get notifications.
(if that ever existed)

You can deactivate/delete mentions, the profile won't get notifications of updates but still can see or search those toots.
note:
still awaiting confirmation of behaviour on #friendica

@bitpickup Hello, I don't understand what you want to do. Is there something I can do to help? I'm on friendica.

noidea,

@bitpickup ok

noidea, to developers

Just in case you haven't seen, this looks like spam accounts (in the Friendica Forgejo) :

https://git.friendi.ca/dogpawsvg
https://git.friendi.ca/martymcflycostume

but I'm not sure..

noidea, to developers

with the constant errors in the log of my friendica instance:

Fatal Error (E_ERROR): gd-webp cannot allocate temporary buffer

maybe it is this: stackoverflow.com/a/73328382/2…

Thus it appears that older PHP versions have an issue where imagewebp() outputs some 'questionable' data which does not prevent browsers such as FF or Brave from properly displaying the image, but does prevent PHP 8.1's imagecreatefromwebp() from being able to decode the file.

because .. I'm using php 8.1.x .. who knows.. it must be something

¿Hi there @developers, can you please take the theme VIER immediately out of the branches stable and RC!

It doesn't even display the [abstract] bbCode properly and right now literally I have no clue how many hours of my life I spend the last month documenting bugs that might be just because that theme doesn't work.

My mind is raging and I just jumped out of the window, lucky me that I live on ground level so every thing is fine as of now, but please, this is disheartening!
thx

tupambae.org/display/0ac89072-…

noidea,

@utopiarte .. you could open an issue on github..

tio, to helpers en-us

Our of curiosity is there a way in Friendica to ONLY allow the friends to comment on your posts? I know that basically anyone can regardless, but to never be visible to you almost like anyone who is not your friend, is IGNORED. I think that could be a great way to deal with the trolls and for big accounts to better manage their mental health.

noidea,

@tio ... That would be nice, to prevent certain people from commenting on my (public) post. Sometimes persons can really destroy a post when they are too penetrant. I had also asked this question and was told that ActivityPub does not allow this, currently. My hope is, that AP could possibly be improved one day. So I can control who comments or even "close the discussion" if it gets too much.
