On Monday, Reddit’s ad manager encountered a brief outage, during which buyers were unable to look at reporting statistics, even while impressions were still delivering, though the impact was fairly minimal, per four sources. (The Verge reported the moderator blackout crashed the site, although it’s unclear whether the crashes are related).
So the site was down for quite a bit of time but the ad related stuff was just a minor hiccup?
Fixed it, I just commented in here from my instance :D But our previous comments don't show up, I think I saw a post about this issue yesterday.
I was trying it but since it's alpine we don't have curl, but I tried ping and no, it doesn't work.
I'm googling what I can do.
The issue in this post for me was already fixed.
Now I do have another issue, not sure if it's related to what you're mentioning.
I'm getting this error when trying to search for a community in another instance.
HTTP request{http.method=GET http.scheme="https" http.host=lemmy.pe1uca.dev http.target=/api/v3/ws otel.kind="server" request_id=36d10fe3-81a9-45f0-b39a-5299b2760ed6 http.status_code=101 otel.status_code="OK"}: lemmy_server::api_routes_websocket: couldnt_find_object: Request error: error sending request for url (https://lemmy.one/c/privacyguides): operation timed out
Here's the post https://lemmy.one/post/16124
That I'm not sure, I just updated the password and have been using that one, not sure if it can be changed in the UI.
I solved it just copying the nginx.conf file
The commits of @[email protected] have the solution.

You can just update the config of nginx to another port and then use your own reverse proxy, in my case I'm using caddy.
The instance is up, but I can't search communities of other instances yet '^-^
Well, your password is incorrect.
Is this for the admin user?
Did you updated the lemmy.hjson file with the admin user you want to use?
I did this and also created a new user and didn't have any issue logging in.
I used to live in Mexicali where IIRC we reached 53C one summer for a few days, the rest were max 50C for a couple of days (during the time I lived there), there was no rain, no clouds, and little to no wind.
I had an office job, so only my commute had me outside during the day, maybe also going to buy lunch.
For the most part it was only to go out after the sun had set if I wanted to do something. All the stores, houses, and businesses have AC, also the public transit even if it just mildly lowered the temperature.
I heard stories that before AC people just endured it, sitting outside at the shadows of few trees and other kind of covers.
Also the original settlers made an underground city to endure the heat.
IIRC the first mall that had AC (La cachanilla) was so popular that during summer it was common to be incredibly full, the verb "cachanillear" was used to mean to go walk in the mall, mostly just during the summer.
Now in Montreal the heat is very humid and I miss the dry heat of the dessert haha.
In here the houses are built to trap heat for the winter, but it backfires during the summer.
Again, with an office job, and now fully remote thanks to the pandemic, a portable AC does the trick.
Also, I don't remember where I read it, but simple fans stop being useful after certain temperature, but I don't remember what it was.
Other instances not showing up in my instance
I was able to deploy my lemmy instance, seems it's working on its own as I can create users and change its configuration.
Now I'm trying to search for communities in other instances but I can't make them show up in my searches.
The logs show these errors ``` Error encountered while processing the incoming HTTP request: lemmy_server::root_span_builder: couldnt_find_object: Request error: error sending request for url (https://lemmy.ml/.well-known/webfinger?resource=acct:[email protected]): operation timed out
ERROR HTTP request{http.method=GET http.scheme="https" http.target=/api/v3/ws otel.kind="server" request_id=adcd5dda-7e3c-4bd9-9be0-3314a2738ddf http.status_code=101 otel.status_code="OK"}: lemmy_server::api_routes_websocket: couldnt_find_object: Request error: error sending request for url (https://lemmy.ml/c/lemmy_support): operation timed out ``` From the host machine the url works properly, not sure if docker could be prevent it in some way.
Do you have any idea what I'm missing?
Edit: I checked if UFW was blocking some port, but the logs don't show anything. Also Caddy's log is clean.
Here's the documentation https://join-lemmy.org/docs/en/administration/first_steps.html#inclusion-on-join-lemmyorg-instance-list
- Federate with at least one instance from the list
- Have a site description and icon
- Be patient and wait the site to be updated, there's no fixed schedule for that
What's the current bottleneck?
That's what I'm going for with some subs I have in mind.
After I learn how to maintain a lemmy instance I'll check with some language and/or world building subs to have a dedicated instance, starting with conlangs and neography.
Is docker documentation up to date?
I'm trying to deploy my own instance following install with docker but seems it's not up to date. Or am I missing something?
Not sure if it's relevant, the version of the files to download is 0.17 instead of 0.17.3 as the latest release in the github repo. Also, I'm guessing I'd need to download the rest of the files listed in the prod folder, not just the two in the documentation https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/tree/0.17.3/docker/prod
Also, I'm trying to use Caddy, I'm guessing I should replace nginx in the docker-compose.yml, correct? Or can I use the Caddy service of the host machine instead of a new docker container?
I know, I'll deploy some stuff in the VPS I have (including a lemmy instance), that's why I'm looking to buy a domain.
Where do you recommend to buy a domain name?
I was looking into hover, namecheap, and google domains. This is the first time I'm looking into this so ELI5.
Is any one better than the others? Would I find issues with different DNS set in my pi-hole?
I still don't fully understand the federation of instances, do other instances have to do something so I can interact with them? Or will it be only on my side?
Yeah, what I was also thinking is if for some reason the instance decides to close then I'd lose my posts and comments.
I'll give it a try, I have some free time and space on my server xD
How much of a good idea is to have my own instance just to have my account?
I'm thinking about deploying my own instance where I'd be the only user and most probable I won't have any communities. The only thing there will be my account to interact with as many other instances as I want.
What would be de pros and cons of having my account like this? Would it be harder to interact with other instances in some way?
Let's Encrypt privacy concerns for private networks
I vaguely remember reading something about leaking your private network setup if you used Let's Encrypt to generate your certificates. Because of this when I installed my reverse proxy with caddy to handle my selfhosted home network I configured it to generate the certificates locally. But this comes with the issue of the annoying warnings of the browsers plus being unable to connect to those devices/services which can't ignore it.
Am I being too paranoid? Is there any real concern about generating the certificates with Let's Encrypt for addresses which I don't intend to have outside my private network?
It's not possible https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/issues/1985
The other issue linked at the end says the possible solution is to export/import some data, like subscriptions. But it's not implemented yet.
Does it affect if I run lemmy inside a tailscale machine with all inbound ports closed?
