yeah exactly. On mbin it works this way and lemmy inserting the link breaks that. But it does it for communities in the community description sometime as well, though I don't know if it is just a user "error" or a lemmy error

Yes they are, but you have my profile on your server and you do not need to leave the server to view my profile... @ user @ lemmy.instance should link to https:// mbin.instance/u/@user@lemmy.instance and not to https:// lemmy.instance/u/user

[-] BentiGorlich@thebrainbin.org 5 points 2 weeks ago

Actually that behaviour is very annoying to other platforms. Mbin for example can only link to the lemmy server this user is on and no longer the local profile of that user. Example: @ user @ lemmy.instance gets converted to [@ user @ lemmy.instance](https:// lemmy.instance/u/user so on mbin this does not open the profile of the user on the local server, but instead links the lemmy instance, so you leave your instance to view the profile.

(spaces included so this won't get converted to mentions, etc)

iodéOS here and I can't find it on my phone either (yes I looked at the system apps)

I am using it too and I love it. I only know source tree as a competitor and in comparision it sucks....

You dont have to pay for it, even when using it comercially (unpess they changed that)

I wouldnt say that. however setting uo your own mail server is a lot of work, as you have to abide a lot of "security" rules (SPF, DKIM, DMARC, rDNS). Additionally some hosters reuire you to apply for port 25 to be unblocked (e.g. hetzner)

On my instance I am the owner and moderator of every remote magazine, so basically all of them. I already created an Issue on Coderberg about this: #243 and ernest has an additional issue open #12

Right now the top bar only shows local magazines, as does the "Random Magazines" section.
Why is that and should federated Magazines be listed too?

For context: I am running a (right now) very small instance that has basically no local magazines. Therefore my topbar is nearly empty

The main problems are the headaches you get while setting it up. Kbin is not in a state where you can just run a script and it works.

I thought that my instance is having problems with sending posts to other instances, especially lemmy instances, so I tried something and these are my observations:

When I post an article to @kbinMeta not all servers that subscribed to the magazine get that article (seemingly). It of course appears at https://kbin.social, but not necessarily on other servers. This is not necessarily by design, it might be, that kbin.social is just struggling to keep up, but I've waited for about an hour and it did not show up on other servers and there are other posts from kbin.social users in kbinMeta at htts://lemmy.ml that got posted after I posted my article, but mine isn't there.
However when I mention a user from another server in a comment this server instantly gets the comment that mentions the user from said instance including the article, which was previously not present on the server.

So here is my Theory:

  • I post something to @kbinMeta -> kbin.social gets the post (-> kbin.social broadcasts it to servers that subscribed to the magazine)
  • I post something to @kbinMeta and mention a specific user from https://feddit.de
    • -> kbin.social gets the post (-> kbin.social broadcasts it to servers that subscribed to the magazine)
    • -> feddit.de gets the post directly

The part thats in paranthesis I am not sure about. Maybe it gets done and maybe not. If it is done then the queue on kbin.social for outgoing messages is just huge and a message is waiting for over an hour to get processed

Maybe some of you know more than me. I just that and this is my observation.

I set up an instance and got the feeling that outgoing federation is not really working. So this is testing that.

I am just happy that I am not there so my popcorn doesn't burn, but pop as it burns away like twitter is🍿

[-] BentiGorlich@thebrainbin.org 5 points 1 year ago

The rest of the post sounds a lot better trust me. I at first rhought he is only insulting kbin amd lemmy 😅

[-] BentiGorlich@thebrainbin.org 3 points 1 year ago

I've spun up a new kbin instance and have no problem pulling magazines from <lemmy.ml> or <kbin.social>

Change remote magazine info (media.thebrainbin.org)

I just disovered that I (local admin) can edit the description, tags, etc. of a remote magazine (propably because I am marked as the owner on my instance)

[-] BentiGorlich@thebrainbin.org 3 points 1 year ago

I mean just look at mastodon and how omnipresent the mascot is. It would be relly great if Kbin had one, too. Sadly I am neigher an artist nor super creative when it comes to this stuff

Debug KBin Messengers (media.thebrainbin.org)

For 1h my instance is hammered at 100% CPU. I just upscaled, but that didn't change anything. I now have a hetzner server with 4 cores and 4 processes for each of the messenger commands. I figured they just have to process a long queue so that makes sense, but only if the queue has an end...
The only thing I found to debug what the messengers are doing is this: php bin/console messenger:stats
which yields the same result each time I run it:

----------- -------
 Transport   Count
----------- -------
 async       100
 async_ap    100
 failed      2152
----------- -------

! [NOTE] Unable to get message count for the following transports: "sync".

Is there a better way to debug kbin messengers?
