Federation delay from lemmy.ml to lemmy.world:

https://grafana.lem.rocks/d/cdfzs0dwal3pca/federation-health-time-behind?orgId=1&var-instance=lemmy.ml&var-remote_software=lemmy&from=now-30d&to=now&var-remote_instance=lemmy.world&timezone=browser

(It’s been a pattern of spiking up to almost 2 days before recovering).

It’s a LW problem (that they are aware of), and it’s unrelated to whether a comment has images or not.

FWIW: that post is not for 2 communities - it’s for one community (/c/test at sh.itjust.works) and one user (/u/test at lemmy.ml) - I’m guessing that it’s autocompleted to a thing that was different from your intentions.

(edit: the webfinger response from lemmy.ml for ‘test’ returns both a Person and a Group, which Lemmy can deal with, but Mastodon probably can’t, so it just grabbed the first one it saw)

The post is at https://lemmy.world/post/1285556 - it’s a link to GIF that’s been deleted at the source (it’s a 404).

There’s a lot of drama in that Issue, and then, at the very end:

Thanks for sharing your concerns here. We have been progressing use of our SDK in more use cases for our clients. However, our goal is to make sure that the SDK is used in a way that maintains GPL compatibility.

the SDK and the client are two separate programs
code for each program is in separate repositories
the fact that the two programs communicate using standard protocols does not mean they are one program for purposes of GPLv3

Being able to build the app as you are trying to do here is an issue we plan to resolve and is merely a bug.

To my mind, the ideal would be that if you, as the person who wants to share some ‘open-source’ news, chose one community that you think is ‘best’ (based on what instance it’s on, if the mods are real people and are active, participation levels, whatever you think really). And we, as subscribers, would do the same. This way, the ‘good’ communities would thrive, and the ‘bad’ ones would wither away. What happens at the minute, is that there’s 8 communities for open source, and there’ll always will be, because they aren’t in competition with one another.

(this is mostly just a general point about cross-posting behaviour, it’s not meant as a dig at you personally).

OP had an account at .ml and it was banned from the entire instance. Their LW account has been banned multiple times from .ml’s asklemmy community (this probably what this post is about, rather than .world’s asklemmy community but I didn’t want to get involved).

I know all the cool kids hate on AI, but as someone out of the loop, that ‘podcast’ is really impressive. I guess it speaks to how a influential certain style of podcasting is (from the likes of NPR) that a machine can copy it the same as other humans do.

As for the embedded link, this works for me (and others on the same site as me), but it might not for others:

Just curious: how would you classify Chrome OS? As Community/Linux or Community/Linux/Chrome (to recognise how much heavy lifting the browser is doing). And would you want to call Google’s additions ‘Community’ or something else?

Oh. I subscribed to this post because I hoped someone would be able to give an answer too.

It’s been a day, so before I forget and on the basis that some answer is better than none at all, I’ll have a crack:

400 Bad Request isn’t much to worry about, it doesn’t mean anything is malfunctioning and it can happen for a gazillion reasons. One is you’ve joined a new community and someone Likes a comment you don’t have (particularly if it’s nested in other comments you also don’t have). Another is if someone Likes a post or comment by a user on an instance that you’ve defederated from (your instance is defed’d from lemmygrad and hexbear whereas lemmy.ml isn’t)

As for 499, that seems to be a client issue, and that client mostly seems to be beehaw, who are stuck on an old Lemmy version and being increasingly wonky (in the other direction, they often reply in HTML rather than JSON and randomly decide that their communities’ inboxes don’t exist, so I wouldn’t worry about stuff from them either)

Seems like ‘posts’ works okay, but it’s ‘comments’ that don’t (and overview is a mix of both).

API call to see posts:
curl --request GET --url 'https://lemmy.world/api/v3/user?username=beebarfbadger&sort=TopDay&page=1&limit=1' --header 'accept: application/json' | jq .posts[].post.published = 2024-09-26T15:35:33.998368Z (today’s top post is today)

API call to see comments:
curl --request GET --url 'https://lemmy.world/api/v3/user?username=beebarfbadger&sort=TopHour&page=1&limit=1' --header 'accept: application/json' | jq .comments[].comment.published = 2024-03-03T05:09:45.255807Z (this hour’s top comment was in March)

They probably know about it, but if not it’s probably a good idea to report the bug here: https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/issues

Oh this is one of those new-fangled ‘immutable’ OSs. I just watched a PeerTube Video from The Linux Experiment about it - it looks complicated but it’s something I’d like to try out at some point in the future.

I bought the Last of Us 2 upgrade, so I can’t really criticise anyone buying this, but I’ve played this game to it’s absolute death - had every conversation, completed every mission, even played through on the hardest difficulty to get all the trophies - so I can’t imagine ever playing it again. It’s Guerrilla Games’ own fault - if they hadn’t made it so good, they could have had an extra tenner from me.

I use beets for exactly this.

I don’t think that would be possible. The API is only sending “post_id” and “score” for votes, so the backend has no info on what feed a user used to send it. An instance could modify their official frontend to hide the ability to downvote from Local and All but they couldn’t do anything about people using different frontends (e.g. all the various phone apps)

I think lemmynsfw stopped people who weren’t subscribed to a community from voting in it (because their communities for gay people were getting a lot of downvotes from All). If that’s what you mean. I think it was a hack rather than a setting though (my info might be out of date)

Just a temporary thing with Lemmy I think - PeerTube (like Lemmy and Mastodon) are already part of the fediverse. You used to be able to successfully subscribe to PeerTube channels from Lemmy (when it was on 0.18), and likely will be able to in future (it’s just a Lemmy bug that needs a fix).

It’s federated like Lemmy, so each platform has ‘local videos’ and an ‘all videos’ section. E.g. https://fedi.video/videos/local and https://fedi.video/videos/overview

Of course, since it’s federated, it means other platforms like PieFed, MBIN and Mastodon can access the same stuff, so you don’t need to register anywhere if you’re on one of them.

Ranked by complexity:

1. Demystify the universe
2. Demystify the human brain
3. Demystify our sed scripts

Think we should maybe walk before we run here.

No API exists yet for PieFed, unfortunately (it’ll need to have one at some point, though)

I’ll admit to assuming he must be kind of a cool nerd for naming some of his SpaceX things after Culture ships (from Iain M. Banks’ novels), but now I feel sullied by association from having enjoyed the same books.
