- Comment on aussie zone's anniverssary date? 1 week ago:
As Nath posted, the domain was registered June 8th 2023. Lemmy was set up on the domain that same day.
That’s a year that has flown by…

TPAs?
CF is best for static content such as images, by default that’s almost all it caches. We’ve had some popular images cached and save us terabytes of egress traffic. - Comment on Nerd Update 20/4/24 4 weeks ago:
Current kitty is enough for the next ~7 months, thanks to some generous larger donations in the last few days. Ongoing monthly contributions currently cover about 50% of the monthly operating costs. Early on monthly donations exceeded monthly costs… leading to the current surplus.
Total costs are ~$75AUD per month for the server and object storage. I can cover that myself if needed.
tldr; finances are fine 🙂
- Comment on How's the server going? 4 weeks ago:
Cheers, Phil. Appreciate it.
Seems to be the lemmy backend and its associated Postgres DB. - Comment on Nerd Update 20/4/24 4 weeks ago:
Yep, thats what it means. What is the swap monster? Seems to be a mix of the lemmy backend and the associated Postgres DB. Its likely the Postgres config is sub optimal and my fault, but honestly given the other issues the lemmy code has had in the past I’m happy to leave the daily restart in place.

AEST? That would be the daily server snapshot. I’ll see if I can bring it forward, trouble is there are daily Lemmy DB tasks etc running earlier that I don’t want to disrupt .
I’ll see what can be done …
- Comment on Ongoing federation issues 3 months ago:
Ok, there’s more to this than I first thought. It seems there is a back end task set to run at a set time every day, if the instance is restarting at that time the task doesn’t run… this task updates the instances table to show remote instances as “seen” by AZ. With the memory leaks in 0.19.1, the instance has been restarting when this task is running… leading to this situation.
I’ve updated the server restart cronjob to not run around the time this task runs… and I’ve again manually updated the DB to flag all known instances as alive rather than dead.
Will keep an eye on it some more…
For anyone curious, two of the bugs that are related to this:
github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/issues/4288
github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/issues/4039 - Comment on Ongoing federation issues 3 months ago:
Ok, something is busted with the lemmy API endpoint that shows current federation state. It is currently showing nearly all remote instances as dead:
ImageBut “dead” instances are still successfully receiving content from AZ, and sending back to us.

Seems to have sorted it for the most part… not sure what caused it, will do some more digging.
- Comment on Ongoing federation issues 3 months ago:
Ok, for some reason practically all instances were flagged as “dead” in the database. I’ve manually set them all to be requeued… server is now smashed as it attempts to updated the ~4000 instances I’ve told it are no longer dead. See how this goes…

Ok, I’ve run a DB backup, updated docker-compose and pulled new images. I’ll do a restart tonight… and hope for the best.
- Comment on Are we going to upgrade to lemmy 0.19? 5 months ago:
I’ll take a look at it. Short version… last time I checked it was still an RC, which I didn’t want to play with.

Not in the current version of lemmy. It is planned for a future release.
- Comment on Email notifications no longer active? 7 months ago:
Looks like something may have changed with the DNS records for the server. I’m seeing a few bounce messages. Will need to look at this tomorrow.

Basically deleting files from the Wasabi cache directory that haven’t been accessed in whatever time threshold I’ve specified as X:
find -atime +X -exec rm {} - Comment on Financials August 2023 8 months ago:
This is my Ko-fi page where people can donate. It’s linked from the sidebar on the front page also.
- Comment on Nerd update 2/9/23 8 months ago:
Midnight is something internal to Lemmy, I think it’s just a DB cleanup. The other is clearing unused caches items from Wasabi.
