Anything from https://lemmon.website is me too.
It’s a shame that there isn’t anything in a Community’s info (for the Lemmyverse crawler to pick up on) that indicates that it’s a ‘meta’ one for the instance (like home@lemmy.zip
is) so it’d be easy to filter out.
It’d be every reply I think.
It’s partially fixable, by interacting with Mastodon the same way PeerTube does and have the community Announce only the posts. For everything else after that, it depends on whether the user is local or not. Anything a local user does could be sent directly, and if a remote user replied to a local user’s post, the local user could send a ‘post update’, for Mastodon to then retrieve the replies collection, circumventing the problem of us not having the remote user’s private keys. But if a remote user replied to a remote user’s post on a local community, they’d be nothing we could do about it (don’t have the keys for the ‘post update’, can’t Announce it without it being spammy either)
There’s not much in the way of communities on PieFed yet. The list is here: https://piefed.social/communities/local?sort_by=last_active%20desc
Following communities from Mastodon works about as well as following Lemmy ones - this is something I’d like to improve, but it’s only very recently that we got a community that wasn’t a meta / testing one. Following users is less spammy, 'cos you’ll get their posts, but not all their comments to other people’s posts, so maybe you could try following someone like Rimu.
Either way, Mastodon doesn’t process outboxes and backfill old stuff, so you’ll have to wait for something new to be posted.
I’ve only ever used Element for Android. The source is here: https://github.com/element-hq
In my experience it looks like a case of matrix clients not doing a good job of communicating that things happening in the background haven’t finished yet, and throwing generic error messages (a bit like lemmy-ui does sometimes).
I’ve been able to join invite-only rooms on other instances - it said ‘failed’ at first, but when I went back later it turned out that I had actually joined.
Yeah, it’s the strange thing about engaging post titles - people seem to be so busy answering them, they ‘forget’ to also upvote them. In contrast, a meme that’s funny but about which there’s not much to say, is more likely to get an upvote as some kind of compensation for the lack of discussion.
Hi - yeah. Looks like some data corruption crept in (I’ve had some trouble getting the bot back online, and it went from not running at all to running too often. Should be okay now though). I ran it again for today and updated the post with new stats, which look to be accurate, from what I’ve checked.)
It should get fully back to normal in a few days - the results are averaged over 7 days so there’s still some data missing (lemmyverse was fixed 2 days ago).
I made a post here: https://lemmy.world/post/16949903
Hi. I raised an Issue on the crawler’s repo a couple of weeks ago. Still waiting for a response though …
Yeah, maybe. I’ll leave it with you …
Fixed now - a community called "wave" music
caused a JSON deserialization error (because JSON uses "
for its own purposes).
It’s been 2 weeks since I raised the Issue for 0.19.4 / 5 instances on lemmyverse - given that there’s been no response, we might have to give up with these lists anyway.
The last time I raised an Issue, the dev did respond, but it was a full week later. Maybe just considered low priority vs. other stuff in his life, rather than unmaintained. Hopefully, anyway. We’ll see …
For lemmyverse, the issue for it is here: https://github.com/tgxn/lemmy-explorer/issues/184
We’ll have to wait until that dev responds, or maybe until Lemmy devs change their mind about not providing a nodeinfo 2.0 response for 0.19.4 instances.
EDIT: ah, me and Blaze were commenting at the same time, it seems.
More and more stuff won’t feature as instances continue to upgrade to 0.19.4, as lemmyverse.net doesn’t yet support it (there was something like 582 instances listed yesterday on there, it’s 572 now).
Hello. This data is sourced from lemmyverse.net, which uses its own crawler, distinct from the lemmy-stats one. The underlying issue is likely the same, so I’ve filed a bug here (past experience suggests that the dev won’t be that quick responding to it though)
The instance I’m on is defederated from links.hackliberty.org. I’m not certain why, but I looked at it to find it’s a place for conspiracy theories, including ‘9/11 Truth’ stuff, so it’s probably that.
There looks to be a bit of indecision about the right instance for a new ‘privacy’ community, so I’m just mentioning this in regard to that.
Nothing yet for today (Sunday), because the crawler at lemmyverse has failed. More info is here: https://github.com/tgxn/lemmy-explorer/actions/runs/9434433542/job/25986550190 - it’s bailed because there are 6011 communities missing from that run compared to the previous one. I’ve seen that number before, which suggests it’s a single instance with that many communities which is failing to give a response.
EDIT: the midday run worked though.
It seems to be quite a lot for the server it’s hosted on though (which is not the snappiest). There are, of course, still areas in the world where - for one reason or another - people still are effectively on dial-up speed-wise.
Or it’s ‘lemmyworld’ or ‘announcements’ or the foreign-language equivalent of ‘main / meta / home’. I’m not saying it’s impossible, I’m just moaning that it’s not easier. While I’m complaining: a flag to indicate that it’s a ‘testing’ community would be nice too.
