so far like a few months bubble bursted on tsla stock, and thats not the first time.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 month ago

mmh i look at the github org tho, but there are indeed some external contributions it looks like at least

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

at least the recent (non-release) docker image should have plaid support for that. It appears to require a few environment variables. Have not yet "plaid" with that but might do so soon.

Oh and for stocks, it is bound to their Synth thing, 1K request are free per month (not all of my etfs are listed atm tho). The synth api key also goes into the env. (which confuses me right now as it also is an input field in the app, dunno but works)

One thats under active development but getting more and more insteresting would be https://maybefinance.com/ – a Rails app. It supports investments and stuff which seems rare. For import they appear to double down on Plaid, which appears to also do a Europe thing which was recently added, however CSV is also supported

Heard good things about it, but if nothing changed, it still is pretty much a one-person project afaik. Thats what makes me cautious.

why tho… why would they do an article on a guess by the ceo guy… thats so weird in this context

i keep telling myself what a timesaver ansible is, while at the same time my simple scripts got abstracted and puzzled into more files, much harder to quickly read and understand them and after hours of frustration, ansible actually works. there may be multiple minutes of delay between my tasks wasting time like hell but it works (as in not randomly fails to connect). except when it doesn’t. there still is a playbook where the host cannot be reached and i keep on failing to understand why as everything appears to be the same and looks correct. there will be more hours wasted.

ive got a somewhat defective ankle joint for 2-3 years now… however i managed it to reach 10k again with some painbreaks not a smart move tho considering how the days after a run feel, and also trying to figure things out with doctors but i am seriously missing running. perhaps it could also help not to run in barefoot shoes in this condition, i am not sure.. that by itself does not really feel wrong.

regarding the op image here, i have long hair and when it rains, i do not use a jacket - instead i enjoy getting wet and open up my hair on purpose :P

Hm at some point Anytype apps will be configurable for custom servers tho (i assumed they were already but i might have been wrong).

Obsidian also has some interesting sync plugins that dont require syncthing

[–] [email protected] 2 points 5 months ago

interesting... but i understand the appeal of quickly jumping into a voice room. other than that, of course not as fancy of a ux experience, mumble would be quite suitable here... .

[–] [email protected] 1 points 5 months ago

i can agree with regards to a proper threads/forum feature which is not that amazing in element right now… but it appears we are moving fast towards element call integration everywhere. this means p2p video rooms if i am not mistaken. is there something else except user friendliness in ux that could be better?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 5 months ago* (last edited 5 months ago)

i cant confirm that. especially in the light of the new sliding sync implemented in elementx. it’s a nightmare for admins but for users it should be fine

What is Lemmy?

Lemmy is a self-hosted social link aggregation and discussion platform. It is completely free and open, and not controlled by any company. This means that there is no advertising, tracking, or secret algorithms. Content is organized into communities, so it is easy to subscribe to topics that you are interested in, and ignore others. Voting is used to bring the most interesting items to the top.

Major Changes

This version fixes the problem of comment context not loading properly. It also fixes a couple other bugs.

Support development

@dessalines and @nutomic are working full-time on Lemmy to integrate community contributions, fix bugs, optimize performance and much more. This work is funded exclusively through donations.

If you like using Lemmy, and want to make sure that we will always be available to work full time building it, consider donating to support its development. No one likes recurring donations, but they’ve proven to be the only way that open-source software like Lemmy can stay independent and alive.

Upgrade instructions

Follow the upgrade instructions for ansible or docker. There are no config or API changes with this release.

If you need help with the upgrade, you can ask in our support forum or on the Matrix Chat.

 

As of deep last light (cest), the error was identified and tchncs started to inform other servers about the events they were missing out on. It wasn't processing one of the outgoing queues correctly due to a well hidden typo in a configfile – causing one of the federation senders not identifying itself correctly.

You may run into a few recent messages that can't be decrypted, but otherwise everything federation related should be back to normal.

Sorry about this mess and thanks to everybody who has helped in identifying the issue.

 

Well hello again, I have just learned that the host that recently had both nvme drives fail upon drive replacement, now has new problems: the filesystem report permanent data errors affecting the database of both, Matrix server and Telegram bridge.

I have just rented a new machine and am about to restore the database snapshot of the 26. of july, just in case. All the troubleshooting the recent days was very exhausting, however, i will try to do or at least prepare this within the upcoming hours.

Update

After a rescan the errors have gone away, however the drives logged errors too. It's now the question as to whether the data integrety should be trusted.

Status august 1st

Well ... good question... optimizations have been made last night, the restore was successful and ... we are back to debugging outgoing federation :(


The new hardware also will be a bit more powerful... and yes, i have not forgotten that i wanted to update that database. It's just that i was busy debugging federation problems.

Just in case we have people here who could not see the infobox on the statuspage due to adblockers :)

Major Changes

This version brings major optimizations to the database queries, which significantly reduces CPU usage. There is also a change to the way federation activities are stored, which reduces database size by around 80%. Special thanks to @phiresky for their work on DB optimizations.

The federation code now includes a check for dead instances which is used when sending activities. This helps to reduce the amount of outgoing POST requests, and also reduce server load.

In terms of security, Lemmy now performs HTML sanitization on all messages which are submitted through the API or received via federation. Together with the tightened content-security-policy from 0.18.2, cross-site scripting attacks are now much more difficult.

Other than that, there are numerous bug fixes and minor enhancements.

This instance was updated a little while ago.

You might have heard of the recent security incident on some instances – that specific xss fix had been added to this instance in advance. However, there are no custom emojis yet, which was the source of that incident. But .... I'll likely add some soon. :)

Major Changes

This release includes major improvements to performance, specifically optimizations of database queries. Special thanks to @phiresky, @ruud, @sunaurus and many others for investigating these. Additionally this version includes a fix for another cross-site scripting vulnerability. For these reasons instance admins should upgrade as soon as possible.

As promised, captchas are supported again. And as usual there are countless bug fixes and minor improvements, many of them contributed by community members.

Support development

We (@dessalines and @nutomic) have been working full-time on Lemmy for almost three years. This is largely thanks to support from NLnet foundation.

Hey there, many of you worried after recent registration bot waves on other instances and now after the temp captcha removal for this Lemmy release.
It was fine until now, but it looks like the bored kids with their bots have now found this server. Approval of new signups is now required again. Especially sad as this does not scale well.

Major Changes

HTTP API instead of Websocket

Until now Lemmy-UI used websocket for all API requests. This has many disadvantages, like making the code harder to maintain, and causing live updates to the site which many users dislike. Most importantly, it requires keeping a connection open between server and client at all times, which causes increased load and makes scaling difficult. That's why we decided to rip out websocket entirely, and switch to HTTP instead. This change was made much more urgent by the sudden influx of new users. @CannotSleep420 and @dessalines have been working hard for the past weeks to implement this change in lemmy-ui.

HTTP on its own is already more lightweight than websocket. Additionally it also allows for caching of server responses which can decrease load on the database. Here is an experimental nginx config which enables response caching. Note that Lemmy doesn't send any cache-control headers yet, so there is a chance that private data gets cached and served to other users. Test carefully and use at your own risk.

Two-Factor Authentication

New support for two-factor authentication. Use an app like andOTP or Authenticator Pro to store a secret for your account. This secret needs to be entered every time you login. It ensures that an attacker can't access your account with the password alone.

Custom Emojis

Instance admins can add different images as emojis which can be referenced by users when posting.

Other changes

Progressive Web App

Lemmy's web client can now be installed on browsers that support PWAs, both on desktop and mobile. It will use an instance's icon and name for the app if they are set, making it look like a given instance is an app.

Note for desktop Firefox users: the desktop version of Firefox does not have built in support for PWAs. If you would like to use a Lemmy instance as a PWA, use use this extension.

Error Pages

Lemmy's web client now has error pages that include resources to use if the problem persists. This should be much less jarring for users than displaying a white screen with the text "404 error message here".

Route Changes

Pages that took arguments in the route now take query parameters instead. For example, a link to lemmy.ml's home page with a few options used to look like this:

https://lemmy.ml/home/data_type/Post/listing_type/All/sort/Active/page/1

The new route would look like this:

https://lemmy.ml?listingType=All

Note that you now only have to specify parameters you want instead of all of them.

Searchable select redesign

The searchable selects, such as those used on the search page, have a new look and feel. No more inexplicable green selects when using the lightly themes!

Share button

Posts on the web client now have a share button on supported browsers. This can be used to share posts to other applications quickly and easily.

Lemmy-UI Overall look and feel

lemmy-ui is now upgraded to bootstrap 5, and every component is now much cleaner.

Special thanks to sleepless, alectrocute, jsit, and many others for their great work on improving and re-organizing lemmy-ui.

Database optimizations

Special thanks to johanndt, for suggesting improvements to Lemmy's database queries. Some of these suggestions have already been implemented, and more are on the way.

Query speed is Lemmy's main performance bottleneck, so we really appreciate any help database experts can provide.

Captchas

Captchas are not available in this version, as they need to be reimplemented in a different way. They will be back in 0.18.1, so wait with upgrading if you rely on them.

Anytype ist eine E2EE Notion Alternative – die so lange Invite-only war, dass Leute spekuliert haben, ob es nur Vaporware sei.

Ich habe eben zufällig den Downloadlink gefunden: https://download.anytype.io/ – außerdem heißt es auf Reddit, dass das Ding Anfang/Mitte Juli endlich opensource werden soll.

Oh noes, that short community list 😱 – but hey, some have been shown to the instance already! 🎊
An instance needs to learn the network either organically from interactions or by getting pointed to nice places of the fediverse.

Finding a community

You might have seen the instancelist already. You can view their communities and subscribe to them from tchncs. Also check out browse.feddit.de for finding all teh nice communities across instances.

Syntax

The syntax for a community is !community.
The syntax for a remote community is [[email protected]](/c/[email protected])
The searchbox also understands full links like https://lemmy.ml/c/unixporn

Show this server a community:

Note: make sure you are searching the fediverse. Do not filter for local, which might be your default!

  1. Go to the search and look up a remote community that you either found on the network or simply guessed.
  2. The server will now try to subscribe to it in the background
  3. After a while the ui will refresh and show the community as a search result. This might take a few seconds. (otherwise see below).
  4. If you want to make sure, just search again after a few seconds or check the community-list and you should find what you were looking for.

If it's stuck at pending

There currently are many discussions around this. Right not it seems like it still works, even tho it says pending.
