Yeah that's why I included the other "main posts"... Their technical details really didn't say anything technical
Ah. I see you too enjoy the debian approach
This should be fixed as we rolled out 0.19.5 today
Oh I was wrong, after further reading this looks to be a lot better than what I was thinking.
I must have been thinking about another methodology of attempted privacy over a dataset.
Before I start reading, if this has anything to do with differential privacy, I'm going to be disappointed.
Is it okay to post images to Reddthat directly, or is better to use an image hoster like catbox.moe?
Yes, you can upload images to Reddthat when posting, commenting, etc.
We have a CDN In front and aggressively cache all of the images.
3rd party images are fetched to generate a thumbnail, and to cache the image. The problem with this is, catbox can be slow at times and if that happens when you post it can't generate them.
Some clients also only open the direct links instead of showing the cached image, resulting in images not loading, or taking forever to load.
I say if you are posting on Reddthat, I'm happy for people to use the features provided by Reddthat. So upload here, if you so wish.
Just remember that the images you upload are linked to your account.
Ooooh I love the temp change idea! I'll have to find a new supplier for that, and think of a cool idea for it! ๐
2nd best reporting in.
A faster db. Just the regular performance benefits, https://www.postgresql.org/about/news/postgresql-16-released-2715/
Also, Lemmy is built against v16 (now) so at some point it will eventually no longer JustWork
The script will be useless to you, besides for referencing what to do.
Export, remove pg15, install pg16, import. I think you can streamline with both installed at once as they correctly version. You could also use the in place upgrade. Aptly named: pg_upgradeclusters
But updating to 0.19.4, you do not need to go to pg16... but... you should, because of the benefits!
Recently we have been smashing my internal goals for Reddthat.
- โ Fix the beta issues plaguing the site
- โ Fix the database issues for upgrading (oops)
- โ Fix LemmyWorld federation
- โ Finalise a new release for lemmy-ansible
- โ Solid uptime & page speed loads (baring the unfortunate beta issue, which unless we had found would have made it into production for everyone)
With all these stability changes now done, I am looking at ways in which we can improve Reddthat further and we are open to any ideas so please feel free to post away!
I'm toying with ideas to use the local only community feature to provide a point of difference in the landscape of Lemmy servers. Weekly events? New communities?
Either way I'm enjoying some coffee, drafting our monthly post to go into more details on the LW federation, and hopefully finding some time to enjoy some autumn sunshine!
Cheers, Tiff
