@fantasy95 The threadiverse. I made an aggregator to suit my tastes https://fledd.it/

What is the long-term storage plan for Lemmy instances?

Over time, Lemmy instances are going to keep aquiring more, and more data. Even if, in the best case, they are not caching content and they are just storing the data posted to communities local to the server, there will still be a virtually limitless growth in server storage requirements. Eventually, it may get to a point where...

@trynn Just looking again it does now seem to work on Kbin. I'll do a bit more testing and maybe edit the list if it works.

@Cat Hmm that doesn't sound correct. Would you be willing to say where in the world you are and provide a screenshot of what you see please?

@JoeClu I think the protocol gets a lot right. It's just a shame all the users are alt-right.

Reminds me of this essay https://nexus.blacksky.network/zine/00000001/confederal-protocols I think Nostr get's much of that right.

@plisken Technically I like all this stuff.

These are not my people though, it's all shitcoin hype in the feed https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aA-jiiepOrE&t=6s

@crossmr Well that is weird. Would you try subscribing to see if that pulls it in? You could always unsubscribe if you hate it?

It mostly seems to work testing from here: https://tools.pingdom.com/#624fcdcb71c00000

@crossmr Ah, do you have 'show bots' disabled in your settings?

@crossmr Yeah, it ran into a glitch. Fixed now

@rikudou I'd also run into this. I run a bot on Lemmy.world and had to unmark it as a bot before it could interact with my Kbin instance

Have you had any bad experiences with people on Kbin yet? Can we do better than Reddit culture? (lemmy.world)

However, when reddit crapped the bed, by comparison, the threadiverse basically didn’t have an established culture. There was a handful of lemmy instances (we were one of them), but the only one of notable size was lemmy.ml. kbin didn’t even exist in any meaningful way until a couple of months before reddit died....

@FaceDeer Do we? Or do we have lots of small groups in the same space?

It does seemthat Mastodon culture is different to Threadiverse culture. I'm OK with that, Mastodon is a little earnest for my tastes. It would be nice if we could keep the worst of Reddit out of here with robust moderation

I wonder if we could/ should enforce moderation ratios in code? You need 1mod per 1k users for example. Your magazine is locked to new users until you add one.

Sam_uk,

Yeah, I was thinking that too. I don't think I can do it automatically (yet) but if there was another big spike or kbin.social went down for some reason it could be manually switched to another instance.

@dismalnow Sure, I didn't write it, but a couple of my feature requests have been implemented. Code & config

@Blaze Thanks! I like this view: https://fledd.it/ but you can't sign up for that instance, so to emulate it you'd have to follow these magazines

I found I had problems initially until I properly sorted out caching. Then I threw a few hundred visitors at it and it's been fine. $10 would be OK for small communities I think, but you're right in that big communities will need big servers.

What problems are you having with federation? The news here is posted from Lemmy.world into fledd.it, then federated back to kbin.social: https://kbin.social/m/worldnews@fledd.it

Sam_uk,

It looks like you don't have caching on that site.

In the WebUI go: Security > Nginx config

Uncomment this section, editing the 600s section.

proxy_cache_valid any 600s;
add_header X-Cache-Status $upstream_cache_status;
proxy_cache my_cache_fledd.it;
proxy_ignore_headers Cache-Control;
proxy_cache_methods GET HEAD;
proxy_cache_bypass $cookie_nocache $arg_nocache;
proxy_cache_use_stale error timeout updating http_500 http_502 http_503 http_504;

Press the Update & Restart Nginx button. Pages should then load in ~2sec rather than ~4sec

The Fedifinder dev seems interested in adding this as a web service https://github.com/lucahammer/fedifinder/issues/236 is using kbin to authorise a third party app possible yet?

+1 yeah I should have said that
