Right now lemmy backend only supports a single ‘subscribed’ list, that would be like a music player only having a single playlist. I know people are using multiple logins just to have more flexibility in managing their lists.

This basically shuts my idea down

it’s not very difficult to modify the code for something like this… and closing off registration wont’ let anyone else login and create new content form your istance.

Personally the load on the major servers by having one more instance that subscribes to everything is why I think people should back off from creating more than the 1500 instances Lemmy network already has. Delivery of every single vote, comment, post 24 hours a day just so one person can read content for an hour or two a day.

That makes sense for email systems where all that content doesn’t have to be sent, but for Lemmy it’s a huge amount of overhead.

Recently I’ve noticed my feed has become almost entirely the main meme instance. The algorithm gives me 4 meme posts then a technology post then load more memes

Yes, same issue, and I’m using lemmy-ui…

Lemmy’s backend Top/Active/Hot are pretty primitive. I’m experimenting with some ways to weigh smaller less-popular communities… because +20 vote on meme topics is noise, but +20 on some focused community can be a big deal. hot_rank doesn’t take that into account and just looks at published date and score. It’s pretty tricky to get new things into the backend, so it may be a while.

Keep in mind that you’re going to be retrieving and storing a huge amount of data running these scripts

And you are adding to the overload of lemmy.world, beehaw, lemmy.ml, etc who have all the popular content communities. Federation has a lot of overhead, as does having to distribute a community one vote at a time to 500 subscribed servers.

pend my time on Lemmy scrolling “All”, which I think is a pretty common thing.

There was a lot of advice handed out back in June that the answer to scaling Lemmy was to go create instances. The reason it works is because “All” is empty on a virgin system ;) With no data in the database, the logic Lemmy hands to PostgreSQL works real fast ;)

Sunday, lemmy.ml is performing better than I have seen it in 60 days. I did get errors on Saturday and significant lag. Not sure if activity is just today or what, but it’s really been fast in routine browsing.

Who are you? I am published author Stephen Alfred Gutknecht, an expert in messaging systems and operating systms. Do you have evidene and facts? (I do have brain damage)

Can you identify who you are?

Can you answer details about GitHub issue 2910 on Lemmy project and the date?

I am sorry to all the never-joined, never-stayed users of Lemmy in May, June, July 2023 “Tweet is X”, “Reddit is $API” ------ because I could not draw enough attention and developers to Github Issue #2910 avoidance. I failed entirely in my social effort I tried to do for 60+ days. I really failed, brain damaged fuck-up I am. The worst failure in my life, and it’s the end of the line.

I’m not sure if there’s a minimum Postgres version specified anywhere in the docs, I took a quick look but couldn’t find it.

I do not find it in the “From Scratch Install” documentation. I will work to revise those documents this weekend to warn people that 0.18.3 and later is incompatible. Thank you again for sharing.

docker compose down &&

Looks like the & parsing in code blocks is another bug in 0.18.3 like the post title one. I’ll add your comment to the GitHub issue.

Thank you for sharing.

Heads-up that a new issue on GitHub reporting this problem upgrading from 0.18.2 to 0.18.3:

thread 'main' panicked at 'Couldn't run DB Migrations: Failed to run 2023-07-08-101154_fix_soft_delete_aggregates with: syntax error at or near "trigger"', crates/db_schema/src/utils.rs:221:25 note: run with 'RUST_BACKTRACE=1' environment variable to display a backtrace

https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/issues/3756

If you use “Lemmy from scratch” install,

you may be on an older PostgreSQL that Ubuntu distro provides, not the same as the Docker install method.

Heads-up for anyone who compiles the Rust code from source and is testing/integrating their own manual changes/patches to the code… the main git branch is not what Lemmy 0.18.3 is based on. https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/issues/3602

I understood beehaw to sit on the kbin side of the fence, where Voyager is a Lemmy app.

Beehaw runs Lemmy, not kbin.

Great, thank you. The network is much more stable and working solid!

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

I have been pleading that Lemmy server operators install pg_stat_statements extension and share metrics from PostgreSQL. https://lemmy.ml/post/1361757 - a restart of PostgreSQL server is required for the extension to be installed. I suggest this be part of 0.18 upgrade. Thank you.
