Microsoft aren’t exactly big on implementing “the latest” stuff. Not at a keyboard currently but I’d be willing to bet GH doesn’t support TLS1.3 either.

Lemmy is compatible with bots which can cause some serious headaches, however there are tools that can combat these.

Every instance of Lemmy has a reputation that is associated with it. If it becomes clear that a particular instance is being used as a bot hub and the moderators are unresponsive then other instances will quickly start to black list it for being too spammy. More so if word starts to get out about it. Point is that the admins of an instance will make a good job of ensuring their users aren’t bots (or at least being misused as a bot) or face their whole instance being blocked across the board.

Even if the bots have their own instance then other instances will resort to enforcing whitelists for connections. Over time we may also see the development of additional mod tools too.

Considering I am looking at this – while having disabled NSFW for myself and my instance – this is a problem?

This sounds oddly familiar 🤔

Depends on how you’re currently set up. My intention was to use something like k3s + https://cloudnative-pg.io to handle most of the details for me.

I prefer to version my configs so this approach serves my MO better, even if it is a little more work initially.

This is not a bad idea. This is how the Fediverse is supposed to work.

I responded in your DB optimization thread as well but can you share the improvements you made?

Could you share what you did? pgbouncer and a much larger pool of available connections comes to mind.

Set up my instance to come here to report that I am not lurking o7

The significant differences between the two aside, I don’t like what the world looks like if Chromium becomes the only viable browser engine…

Was reading about this earlier, in theory they are fully compatible but Kbin’s implementation is better.

I was unable to successfully subscribe to the same magazine as you tried.

@snowe I think Lemmy is going to have a hard time handling any meaningful traffic if lemmy.ml is struggling with ~2k active users.

Some work probably needs to be done, however the more early adopters there are – particularly in these types of communities – the more likely the work will actually get done.

@nutomic@lemmy.ml what kind of hosting do you guys use for lemmy.ml? At the time of writing it looks like you have around 33k users and around 2k active. What does that look like for resources consumed?
