At least for this time, it appears some child wrote a bad crawling bot, heavily hammering the instance with requests for posts, comments and stuff - and i think they knew as they hide behind a vpn. For now things should be better as i did some short term measures and i am trying to better prevent such actions better.. hoping for the best.

Its people like this who should donate lol.

I kinda lost track on my Anubis deployments, it appears here i only have a useragent blacklist so its time to give it prio for lemmy as well. However i worry whether that is sufficient.

(while things are much healthier again, i acknowledge that at least in the webui, its not as fast as it should be)

i notice thats a fork of a fork, whats going on there?

mmh did some more tuning on the database this morning as the cache hit ratio was a bit low, i hope the calculations for available memory prove to be correct :)

thank you for the info but no, there was no helpful identification, the useragent was pretty generic

Thats about a (potentially) unrelated issue with the web application. I am lucky that i checked as i first discarded the problem due to similar symptoms until somebody told me things are still slow.

This has been taken care of. Sorry for the delay after the initial report. :)

it appears that federation stops after a few hours after each restart of the lemmy server. i could not spot any helpful logs yet, sadly, but i am working on it.

After a while of thinking and reviewing, I have come to the conclusion to defederate as requested. If they correct course, I'll happily re-review them.

The fix pr has been "merged" into our deployment some hours ago and we luckily dont have custom emojis yet :)

Ich bin immer froh kein Meta in meinem Leben zu haben. Diese Situation hier kommt mir allerdings grad noch zu wage für eine fundierte Meinung vor und ich halte es noch für zu früh um auf diesen Aufschreitrain aufzuspringen und eine grellpinke Webseite zu zeichnen...

Und wenn das Ding da genauso gut wie eg. Facebook moderiert wird und die Instanzen immer mehr Müll lernen, is der Block eh nicht weit. Völlig unabhängig von der ethischen oder der Grundsatzfrage.

I am trying to examen the instance, it would have been helpful to have some pointers to speed up the process although it somehow sounds like a familiar domain. It sounds like such content at least was against their rules. but that of course does not have to mean much.

Looking at the comments from their team is no good impression to say the least hmm

Update: found some more potential evidence that they are not welcoming nazis, but i think there are quite a few misinformation and "the usual" shitpost things on there that are not very ... enjoyable (and of course as the op implies, transphobic trash and such as to expect from a shitpost instance).

vikunja, plane, taiga, focalboard, wekan, restyaboard, planka

integrated in: openproject, anytype, cryptpad, nextcloud, php version of owncloud

almost there ⏳

the more or rather less testinstance at trails.tchncs.de was updated :)

I think it fits very well :)

I wonder if/when humans will realize that they all live on one planet together

As for us, i am having a close eye on incoming names – so far pretty much all look authentic (speaking from mastodon experience) .. i hope thats the case, it doesn't scale well to manually approve so many people...

youtube alternative that federates/can be selfhosted like lemmy

developers are aware. i didn't report this yet because i wasn't sure if this wasn an issue on our end, but looks like thats not the case: https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/issues/4288

so kann man sich auch beschäftigen
