  • The backlog was bigger than I expected...

  • Depends on the project, and I imagine a lot of the smaller ones are your standard FOSS BDFL leadership.

    In my case I'll likely make a rough milestone list based off our NLNet memorandum and go from there.

  • In my case I had a spam protection measure that limited the amount of upvotes per user in one day. Someone on a Lemmy server uploaded past that threshold and NodeBB started sending back 500s.

  • silverpill@mitra.social simple! Respond to a Lemmy server with a 500, and once you hit 40 in one day the instance puts you on a timeout. Repeat as needed until your backlog is 4M activities 😅

  • Less than 3M activities behind now!

  • flamingos@feddit.uk it's less that and more Lemmy's ridiculously effective synchronization mechanic that Mastodon doesn't utilise!

  • > Ubuntu 8.10 Intrepid Ibex also had its namesake animal on the default wallpaper, but more subtle than the last release.

    That was an Ibex? All this time I thought it was a coffee stain.

  • If you live in the GTA, you should definitely check out The Cotton Factory! Cool art and makerspace.

    Unfortunately in one of the sketchier parts of Hamilton, but that seems to be par for the course for these types of places.

  • To be fair, Human music theory is also weird.

    A lot of what we teach our kids about music theory is rooted in the firm foundation of "it is this way because it just is, so just remember it."

    Like why is the circle of fourths and fifths the way it is? Because it just is. Remember it. When you're learning key signatures why doesn't the key match the signature (D major is F# and C#,. but Bb major has a Bb and an Eb?!)? Because it just is. Remember it.

    It's no wonder music theory gets completely lost on kids. It doesn't make any sense!

  • What would cross-posting between instances look like in ActivityPub?

    Jump

  • Hey rimu@piefed.social thanks for responding (and sorry for the late reply!)

    I am not married to the Announce([Article|Note|Page]) approach, so I am definitely open to Create([Article|Note|Page]) with a back-reference. I think I went the former direction because there is a known fallback mechanism — the Announce is treated as a share/boost/repost as normal. However, sending the Create also is fine I think.

    1. However, do we need a backreference? In my limited research, it seems that Piefed, et al. picks the first Group actor and associates the post with that community. If I sent over a Create(Article) with two Group actors addressed, could Piefed associate the post with the first, and initiate a cross-post with the remaining Group actors?
    2. Secondly, is how to handle sync. 1b12 relies on communities having reciprocal followers in order for two-way synchronization to be established. On my end since I know it is cross-posted I will now send 1b12 activities to cross-posted communities, but can Piefed, et al. send 1b12 activities back as well, in the absence of followers?

    Jump

  • projectmoon@forum.agnos.is basically, yes. It would be a little too involved to upend the entire system to support multiple cids per topic — a lot of our existing code relies on cid being a single value.

    This would be an add-on logic of sorts, where each topic has a canonical category, but can also be cross-posted to other communities/categories.

  • Unicode in handles

  • לאצי the usernames work fine locally (that is, on the site itself). It's when interoperating with other sites not running NodeBB where there are issues, it seems 🙂

  • mro@digitalcourage.social the order of the Hebrew characters is correct, although I believe it should be wrapped in <bdi> tags so the rest of the line isn't affected 🙂

  • לאצי don't worry about it! You shouldn't have to alter your username just to suit our latin-character world 😁

  • scott@loves.tech said in Unicode in handles: &gt; Would their ActivityPub username be לאצי@community.nodebb.org then?

    <br />

    <br />

    I tried to follow that username and it would not let me.

    Indeed, that's probably the characters in their handle.
