Feddit UK slow or broken at updating "hot" or "active" in c/[email protected]

This started happening with another community. After looking there is an open issue on GitHub. Looks like it is impacting smaller servers more than larger ones?

Sadly, it's not fixed it. Although I've noticed it's community specific...

I think I got rate limited when I used a python script to migrate my subscriptions (some 503 errors) but most of them came through. My new account still gets this post from a year ago (https://feddit.uk/post/321952) as my 4th hot post. Along with a number of 1 year+ old posts below. However, after looking into it looks like they are all from Programmer [email protected]. Going back to my original account, which has my full subscriptions, again they seem to be from some specific communities:

ADHD [email protected]
Programmer [email protected] 
[email protected] 
[email protected]
[email protected] 
Cathode Ray [email protected]

I'm going to unsubcribe from these for the time being, and see how I get on.

Stranger and stranger... these are my "hots". They start off okay, and then quickly they are a year+ old. Happens on all clients. I'm probably going to create a new username/account and see if it's the same. Maybe something has got stale with this one. Besides, I don't like my username anymore! :)

@[email protected] Hey Tom. This issue is persisting for me. I get the odd post that I would consider hot, but in general the posts are days, weeks or in a couple of cases YEARS old! I have accounts on two other instances with similar subscriptions to those I have here:

lemmy.world doesn't have this issue (although it has many other issues and is generally unusable, I think due to load). They are on UI: 0.18.1-rc.7

programming.dev is also on BE: 0.18.0 and seems fine. No issues with hot posts. They have about twice the number of users/posts as feddit.uk.

developer taking suggestions? in c/[email protected]

Only read posts. I don't want to necessarily hide read posts. If it's interesting I want to keep coming back to it. Also if it's a junk, offensive, triggering, spammy repost I don't want to have to "read" it to make it go away.

anyone here fancy themself some GameCube? in c/[email protected]

Indeed. And that's not even taking account those discs are much harder to get a hold of and/or more expensive than the Gameboy Player itself!

Oh absolutely! That's the killer app for the Gameboy Player IMHO. Properly felt like a return to the SNES days of 2D platforming, but with improved tech and quality of life. Love it.

Big shout out to the Gameboy Player add-on for the GameCube, and the equally brilliant Game Boy Interface which vastly improves the video quality.

How will we keep Meta out of the fediverse? in c/[email protected]
[–] [email protected] 42 points 2 years ago

The Mastodon instance I'm on has blocked all known Meta IPs as a preventative measure. So I imagine some admins will federate and some won't, and users will be free to join the instance that they wish to.

Yeah, I'd say either repro (because it's not an official Nintendo manufactured cart/ or a homebrew cart.

Feddit UK slow or broken at updating "hot" or "active" (feddit.uk)
 

I have an account on feddit.uk and lemmy.world with almost identical subscriptions.

When I visit the feddit.uk homepage and look at posts from my subscriptions sorted by "hot", the two posts immediately after the two pinned Feddit UK posts at the top are 6 days old. The behaviour with "active" is similar. Posts shown are quite old, and neither hot nor active.

When I visit the lemmy.world homepage and look at the "hot" posts from my subscriptions, the first 10 are all with the last couple of hours. Active shows posts in the last 24 hours with a healthly number of comments.

Both servers are running 0.17.4

Basically, right now feddit.uk is almost unusable for me due to both hot and active being populated by stale posts. I need to search by "new" to get anything approaching useful - but when I do that there is just too much to sift through.

Can't find and join some kbin magazines (feddit.uk)

I've been trying to join [email protected] for a few days. Going to https://feddit.uk/c/[email protected] gives me a 404. Using the same URL on a couple other Lemmy instances (eg lemmy.world) seems to work. Is there an issue preventing new communities/magazines from federating properly to feddit.uk?

It's fine. They might smell a bit musty, so I'd wash them. Especially if your are going to donate.

Mid-morning Long Black (feddit.uk)
 

My espresso based mid-morning beverage of choice is a long black. Which I make with 80g of water topped off with a 36g shot of espresso. I think most people tend to use a bit more water, but I find this ratio a nice balance. My mind and body can only cope with two coffees a day, so I like to second and last one to be something I can savour!
