~~EDIT: This has been resolved! Thanks @[email protected] ๐Ÿ’™~~

~~Looks like we gotten past one rate limit but we've hit another / (โ•ฏยฐโ–กยฐ๏ผ‰โ•ฏ๏ธต โ”ปโ”โ”ป~~

This should be fully resolved on 0.8.1. Please update.

Y'all love the https://wefwef.app so much that it's getting rate limited by https://lemmy.world. That's why you're probably getting errors.

I'm talking to get the limited boosted, but in the meantime:

  1. Self-host!
  2. Use a community deployment, and/or host one! There's only one right now. (Note: Make sure you trust the server admin.)
  3. Temporarily use a lemmy account from another instance (wefwef has multi account support!)

What if you pay them 20 million dollars? ;-)

Just donate some dollars... doesn't have to be 20M... to our Patreon or OpenCollective :-)

Yes it works perfectly fine and fast with feddit.uk (another lemmy instance based in the UK).

I just setup my own self hosted with docker so that is at least one less user hammering the site. :)

Would you mind sharing your docker-compose.yml?

[โ€“] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

I just followed his instructions on his GitHub and did a docker pull and then docker run.

Interesting, I didn't realize the app sent requests server side. I thought it was more locally running.

It's a reverse proxy for CORS limitations that will be resolved in the next version of Lemmy. :)

As to selfhosting, I have created an Unraid CA template and submitted it. I hope it will be in the CA store shortly!

What's the current technical plan to alleviate this? Some kind of multi-node setup behind wefwef.app? Less strict rate limiting by lemmy.world for your endpoint?

[โ€“] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

Long term: Lemmy CORS support! It will allow direct connect to the instance from your device.

Short term: Coordinating with lemmy.world (ruud) on rate limits

Iโ€˜d love to self-host, but I have no idea how. What are the server requirements? Is a Raspberry Pi sufficient?

[โ€“] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

Raspberry pi should be sufficient if you can get docker on it!
