Seems the log jam has been freed, though I didn't stay up all night. In any event, I'll go back to minding my own business now.

Jerry, I have a question why does fedia defederates Threads, but infosec.exchange doesn't? In the past fedia was federating with Threads, but recently they were suspended

It was my main place to follow Threads accounts, so it is kinda disappointing, but the inconsistent defederation just seems strange to me

You obviously don't own anyone anything, but I just would love to hear the reason/the explanation, was there something I missed?
@Jerry @jerry

Hello, @jerry.

It seems there is some trouble with #Fedia? Yesterday, I wasn't able to use most pages of your #Kbin website with 500 errors all around the place after registration. Today, it's just the contact form and microblogs. Moreover, deleting account fails with the same error. (❗) I'm just scared of what will falter next... :php:

@jerry Are you aware that #Fedia has gone back to showing 500 errors more frequently (actually All is working now but Subs aren't, so maybe it's no worse than yesterday just more noticeable to me), a lot of the thumbnails appear to have broken over the last day or so too - most aren't showing at all now. I did see somebody mention that kbin.social was having thumbnail issues and @ernest was working on it - so maybe this isn't a Fedia problem per se.

Seems like on fedia.io opening other instance post it gets 500 error.

Decided yesterday to spin up test kbin instance my self. Today I seem to get similar error as this codeberg.org/Kbin/kbin-core/is I know what I'm doing tomorrow 😂

@jerry

Codeberg.org[BUG] 500 error: getInstancePrivateKey (Prod mode only)Trying to search on the subscribed `@RedditMigration@kbin.social` magazine.. Gave a 500 error... ![image](/attachments/f0edcfe4-47e6-4071-a9a2-2d566dcc6a79) https://kbin.melroy.org/search?q=%40RedditMigration%40kbin.social. This is in **production** mode... When switching to `dev` mode, using `composer dump-env dev`, then the problem is gone. Getting `getInstancePrivateKey` errors, `prod.log`: ``` [2023-06-20T20:35:16.133505+00:00] php.CRITICAL: Uncaught Error: App\Service\ActivityPub\ApHttpClient::getInstancePrivateKey(): Return value must be of type string, null returned {"exception":"[object] (TypeError(code: 0): App\\Service\\ActivityPub\\ApHttpClient::getInstancePrivateKey(): Return value must be of type string, null returned at /var/www/kbin.melroy.org/html/src/Service/ActivityPub/ApHttpClient.php:250)"} [] [2023-06-20T20:35:16.133994+00:00] request.CRITICAL: Uncaught PHP Exception TypeError: "App\Service\ActivityPub\ApHttpClient::getInstancePrivateKey(): Return value must be of type string, null returned" at /var/www/kbin.melroy.org/html/src/Service/ActivityPub/ApHttpClient.php line 250 {"exception":"[object] (TypeError(code: 0): App\\Service\\ActivityPub\\ApHttpClient::getInstancePrivateKey(): Return value must be of type string, null returned at /var/www/kbin.melroy.org/html/src/Service/ActivityPub/ApHttpClient.php:250)"} [] ``` **Possible root-cause:** Cache issue... **Workaround:** `redis-cli FLUSHALL` (NOT ideal) What I already tried before a Redis flush was, without luck: - `APP_ENV=prod APP_DEBUG=0 php bin/console cache:clear` - `composer clear-cache`

For everyone creating communities (#Lemmy instances) or "magazines" on #Kbin instances be mindful of the very real deficiencies that exist related to moderation, as @thisismissem writes about here (hachyderm.io/@thisismissem/110). We're all both excited about the promise the #Fediverse brings and equally pissed at what is going on over on Reddit but there is real *danger* in growing communities using software that might not be ready for it. Read Emelia's post to gain more understanding of the potential pitfalls (and guidance around moderation). One thing I'll add is that botching this migration due to immature software could turn people off from the idea of Reddit-esque fediverse communities indefinitely.

@jerry I'm certainly no expert on community creation/management much less moderating mid-large size communities but there are certainly others within the .infosec sphere (👀 @tweedge) who could weigh in. Maybe it would be helpful to post a guide of some kind (not saying *you* need to create it but you could help market it) which fairly warns #fedia and #infosecpub channel admins that moderation tools are lackluster and to tread carefully as they scale out. Happy to volunteer my own time/perspectives on adding something to a larger wiki for your various Fediversal properties as needed!

Hachyderm.ioEmelia 👸🏻 (@thisismissem@hachyderm.io)Okay, so, I've just done a review of the #moderation features in both #Lemmy and #kbin. I've written up a fuller report on the IFTAS matrix, but the tl;dr is: if you care about user safety, do not deploy either of these. They do not feature comprehensive or well built moderation tools, and you will not be able to effectively moderate instances running this software. You are better off waiting to deploy these once they mature more. Edit: removed user mentions to stop spamming them.

#kbin #Fedia Status

This latest from @jerry :

- #Kbin and #fedia.io needing pretty beefy servers to keep up after #redditMigration
- "The server is pegged. 32 threads of 90% CPU usage.
- I bought 4 more servers and I am going to be giving docker swarm a try to spread the load out across 5 systems.
- Wish me luck.
- (each system is a Hetzner EX101 Intel i9 13k with 64GB of DDR5 ECC memory and a raid 1 nvme v4 SSD - so pretty fast)"

Ok so I joined fedia.io because I like trying out fedi projects and I occasionally used #Reddit. Seems like in a couple of days it’s gotten some things fixed up and more content I actually care about. But there is no #TOMT (tip of my tongue) magazine yet, so hoping someone will create that because I’m not really cut out to be a magazine admin but I love sleuthing for obscure cartoons, video games, toys etc. that someone remembers from 20 years ago and just wants to see again to recapture a little piece of their childhood in this wild world we live in. #fedia

Alright! I'm on Fedia (fedia.io) now (@shellsharks@fedia.io). A few initial thoughts/questions...

- First, I created a @fedia.io user but curious if I can use my infosec.exchange identity over there.
- Tried uploaded a profile pic several times but no luck for some reason...
- Anyone know how to get Mastodon verification to work with kbin/Fedia?
- I see people posting to Fedia via what appears to be Mastodon accounts which I'd like to figure out how to do...
- Does kbin have the concept of "sub-reddits" or is it just one large general-interest feed of threads?
