@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

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

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

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

@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 Yeah, it ran into a glitch. Fixed now

That's weird I don't get any images when viewing through lemmy.world

Sam_uk, 10 months ago to RedditMigration in What do people here think about Nostr?

@Metaright I liked the concept behind the software. Unfortunately the people I found on there were alt-right shitcoiners

Sam_uk, 10 months ago to kbinMeta in Today I think kbin.social became the busiest server in the threadiverse

@bedrooms Arguably Lemmy.world is the 'main instance these days https://fedidb.org/current-events/threadiverse But I agree kbin is the better choice.

Sam_uk, 10 months ago to kbinMeta in We are launching KBIN fully managed service

@Frog@kbin.social It does run, but not great.

The dual core 4Gb seems good so far, but I've not stress tested it. There's an instance here you could have a look at: https://fledd.it/

@jbenguira after fixing the image thing, my main feedback is that it doesn't run that well on the single core 2Gb ram option. It does run, but pretty slowly.

The dual core 4Gb ram version seems to run reasonably well, but I haven't put it under proper load yet.

Sam_uk, 10 months ago to climate in July 3rd 2023, the first time on record that the Earth's temperature exceeded 17C Remember this date. Decades in the future we will look back on 17C with fondness

It's an analysis and average of global temp, Antarctic, Sahara the lot https://climatereanalyzer.org/reanalysis/monthly_tseries/
