We’ve updated Lemmy.world to Lemmy 0.18.1.
For the release notes, see https://lemmy.world/post/1139237
“This release includes major improvements to performance, specifically optimizations of database queries. Special thanks to @phiresky, @ruud, @sunaurus and many others for investigating these.”
Hehe, lemmy.world doing some stress testing for the entire lemmy project.
Ooh I need to check the size of the custom emoji 😄
The Rodent is removedin’ fast now. Thank you, operators!
Lemmy World! Party Time! Excellent!
Whoops replied to the wrong place
I find it hilarious how the most random shit always changes with updates. Like I just noticed how the badges for mod and OP changed on posts, and so I knew there’s an update. Who keeps constantly fidgeting with these things?
Ed: to be clear, I’m not dissing anyone. Keep it up folks
Yeah I wonder what the reasoning behind that was. Personally I preferred the old way, where it was completedly filled in. Made it easier to notice the tag by color. It also aligned more with the rest of the Lemmy UI and it’s filled-in green buttons.
Haha, this is how fast-moving open source projects work, things change constantly as they believe it’s better to just get (perceived) improvements out of the door when they’re cooked up, instead of waiting in any capacity.
It seems that they need a UI expert.
Awesome, now block threads.net from this instance. Lemmy.ml already did it.
I’m just gonna leave Lemmy.world while I’m ahead. The quietness says all we need to know.
Hi Ruud, was wondering if you could check if lemmy.world/.well-known/security.txt actually exists on the server. It was added in 0.18.1 but either isn’t being created or isn’t public.
Hi! I noticed an issue with the headers sent by Lemmy.world.
Headers sent from and to this website’s official UI look like this:
HTTP/1.1 200 OK server: nginx/1.18.0 (Ubuntu) date: Fri, 07 Jul 2023 23:35:17 GMT content-type: application/json vary: accept-encoding, Origin, Access-Control-Request-Method, Access-Control-Request-Headers content-encoding: gzip access-control-allow-origin: * access-control-allow-methods: GET, POST, PUT, OPTIONS access-control-allow-headers: DNT,User-Agent,X-Requested-With,If-Modified-Since,Cache-Control,Content-Type,Range access-control-expose-headers: content-encoding, content-type, vary, Content-Length,Content-Range X-Firefox-Spdy: h2Which is fine. However, headers received by custom clients look like this:
HTTP/2 200 OK server: nginx/1.18.0 (Ubuntu) date: Fri, 07 Jul 2023 23:33:50 GMT content-type: application/json vary: accept-encoding, Origin, Access-Control-Request-Method, Access-Control-Request-Headers content-encoding: gzip access-control-allow-origin: https://natoboram.github.io access-control-expose-headers: content-encoding, access-control-allow-origin, content-type, vary access-control-allow-origin: * access-control-allow-methods: GET, POST, PUT, OPTIONS access-control-allow-headers: DNT,User-Agent,X-Requested-With,If-Modified-Since,Cache-Control,Content-Type,Range access-control-expose-headers: Content-Length,Content-Range X-Firefox-Spdy: h2There’s two
access-control-allow-origin! This still breaks web clients.At first I thought it was a Lemmy problem, but lemmy.ml doesn’t have this problem. @ruud@lemmy.world It’s a lemmy.world problem indeed.
I’ll check that. It’s to do with the CORS settings that changed in recent Lemmy update
Mobile browser is ultra fast and stable, and Jerboa is running like a charm! Appreciate all you and your team’s hard work.
My favourite thing except the emoji is the new theme
Hahah hadn’t seen that one, looks nice! Reminds me of the good old days…
Haha exactly! I just need to find my dot matrix printer paper with the holes and I’m all set to relive my youth
Ohh in my youth we had a MSX…
Awesome! We had BBC Micro in schools here, I think at home we had a Commodore or it might have been an Amiga! it is a bit hard to remember so far back :) I remember writing a letter to my dad on it, quoting Monty Python and calling him a bastard lol, not knowing exactly what I was saying at the time. Ah, fond memories!
That is the ugliest thing I have ever seen. What the fuck.
Congrats!
I just donated to celebrate this!
Can you please give us a straight answer regarding blocking threads.net? If you don’t intend to do so, there are those of us who want to know so that we can leave.
I’m not familiar with this blocking threads controversy. Can you EIL5?
Threads big and scary. Smol bois in the Fediverse have been discussing preemptively defederating from Threads due to how big and scary it is in an attempt to protect themselves and the Fediverse as a whole.
Threads is the new Facebook-owned twitter come. It uses the activity pub protocol and is therefore part of the fediverse.
People are concerned that Facebook with embrace the fediverse, enhance it with me features (as they will be the largest developers on the platform) and then either deliberately or because no-one can keep up with their development extinguish it.
Definitely notice the improved speed and fewer errors lately. Thanks so much for hosting a great instance, and for keeping up with its needs.
It’s working great, but we would appreciate an update in regards to letting meta in our instance or not
Thanks for the update! But I noticed an issue: it seems you haven’t commented on defederating from Threads? Please let us know if you are so we can respond accordingly.
The same admins run a Mastodon instance. They are taking a “wait and see” approach on Mastodon. Their lack of statement on their Lemmy instance leads me to believe they will be taking the same approach.
This doesn’t work for me - I joined Lemmy to be as far from big tech as possible. Time to exercise the power of the fediverse and move to an instance that admins in a way I prefer!
Yup, hence why I’m on lemm.ee. Originally made an instance to cover when .world was being slow but I think this will be my main now. They haven’t finalized the vote but it seems to be going the defed route.
Still hugely supportive of the .world admins though. They’ve done a ton of work to keep .world running and a ton of digging that will help lemmy overall. I just don’t agree with federating with big social media.
I hear ya - no hard feelings towards the admins. Even if I disagree, it’s their instance, they can do whatever they want.
@owatnext @ruud I think he already has: https://mastodon.world/@mwadmin/110654590632768079
Thanks for sharing. Odd that Rudd hasn’t posted here, not all of us are on Mastodon.
Nice work @ruud. Things are feeling MUCH better now.
