Just wonking about on the internet... oh look, a bee.

Yep. Though activitypub calls it something else as well. It's renames all the way down

/kbin server update - or how the server didn't blow up

Currently, on the main instance, people have created 40191 accounts (+214 marked as deleted). I don't know how many are active because I don't monitor it, but once again, I greet all of you here :) In recent days, the traffic on the website has been overwhelming. It's definitely too much for the basic docker-compose setup,...

If the post is anything to go by it's using the included "mostly for dev work only, mostly" docker-compose files. It would absolutely be able to be scaled out since at it's core it's just a webapp with workers. The app is already configured to use Redis for session storage so should be able to go super wide.

Only limitation is how performant you could make your postgres cluster.

It does, AFAIK affect the post ranking i.e. order of posts. So it's got that going for it - which is nice.

Just keeping things spinning at this point is taking up most of Ernest's time.

So what happens with 300 people downvote a post and 500 upvote it? For that to work you'd need an 'account' per post/vote/user combination. Now your instance has 1000's of bot accounts that are now indistinguishable from bad vote manipulation.

ActivityPub broadcasts all these activity types. It's how it works. You can't federate these things without, well, federating them.

This is bug. It's fixed in dev. Shortly before the great migration started a change was made to bring kbin in line with lemmy but the bit that calculated the "karma" was missed and so it still uses boosts.

Not that I agree with the concept of karma.

"Antiwoke" magazin on kbin.social posting bullshit like "how to end Wokeness" and "Time to reject the extrem trans lobby harming our society" How to report ? he is the moderator of that magazin. (calckey.social)

@ernest how do I report a Magazin on kbin.social ? There is a usere called "ps" who is posting to his own "antiwoke" Magazin on kbin.social. Please remove this and dont give them a chance to etablish them self on kbin.social. When I report his stuff it will go to him because he is the moderator of the magazin? Seems like a...

Thank you for doing the investigation so I don't have to. He'll be going on many peoples block lists at this point.

Oh, no no. It was that I blocked one person and there were only 6 other comments left (all fine) :D

Blocking a person seems to remove any comment tree they're a branch in (i.e. their posts and all responses to those posts)

VerifiablyMrWonka,

Ha, I blocked the worst offender in the comments here, refreshed the page and now there are like... 6.

VerifiablyMrWonka,

They aren't used in Mastodon. Maybe they are in other platforms (misskey?)

I don't think so. Beehaw have locked the post so won't be accepting any replies locally or from federated instances. Since they don't accept the federated responses they don't forward them on anywhere else - so no other instances will be seeing these.

VerifiablyMrWonka,

You're unlikely to see this as you've "locked it" on beehaw but this is the fediverse. So what you've actually done is defederate this post from the rest of us.

As I'm typing this it occurs the only people who will see it are on kbin.social waves

... attitudes of Beehaw.org than Lemmy.

I mean, beehaw.org is an instance of Lemmy? Lemmy is just software.

This comment brought to you via KBin - from the instance kbin.social.

It's been a long time since I even thought about Futurama so I wasnt sure if ALL GLORY TO THE HYPNOTOAD

Both these give you a simple way to search for things you want. They use IMDB and the like to give you a big list of results. You add what you want to your collection and in the background they scurry off to torrent sites or usenet and downloads it. Then they name everything nicely and stuff then in your Plex library.

You can set them up to use specific torrent sites. Download specific qualities, or more likely an order of qualities by preference and all sorts of other tweaks.

I'm actually working on the problem now. It's a tricky one to solve. There's no context about who that user is, like at all. So we either don't link any users. Or do a best effort.

VerifiablyMrWonka,
VerifiablyMrWonka avatar

Not actually a bad shout. When a local user submits we can fully qualify the handle if it's short. Remote posts without a fully qualified won't be able to be linked.

🤔

Yep, just like the last app. I'm hoping it'll come under the current subscription they do like the old one did.
