I always wondered why there are weapons and health packs lying around in unexplored caves.

Sorry I was busy doing it as you were posting. Seems to have worked.

Upgraded to 0.19.12 (lemmy.myserv.one)
 

Site was upgraded after working with the lemmy devs to find a fix.

If there are any issues let me know. Seems to be working from what I can tell.

Update will be reattempted (lemmy.myserv.one)
 

I have been given a potential fix by the lemmy devs to be able to update to 0.19.12.

https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy-ui/issues/3206#issuecomment-2994482703

I will attempt this fix sometime soon and if it fails revert a snapshot again, or if it succeeds post that we are up to date after. Will be in the next couple days sometime.

lemmy update reverted (lemmy.myserv.one)
 

Lemmy 0.19.12 was reverted from snapshot as it broke logins for users. I dont have a fix but am investigating. Server was rolled back since troubleshooting the error did not find any resolution.

Lemmy upgraded (lemmy.myserv.one)
 

Lemmy was updated to 0.19.12 today.

Vote manipulation bots? in c/[email protected]
[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 weeks ago

Yeah no worries. We have a matrix chat where these sort of problems are discussed. We note its less of a problem on servers where signup is required to be approved as new accounts cant be created via automation. Some lemmy instances are less restrictive.

Its a known issue which lemmy is working on.

I took a look and its quite complicated to install requiring a very complex kubernates clustwr. Unclear why it is so disparate when something like nextcloud can be single containerised. I feel like this could be simplified for deployment.

Search on this server is really slow in c/[email protected]

Pleasure. Give voyager a try. The programmer is really good (better than the lemmy devs) so its pretty optimised.

There is a lot of caching and memory management to mask performance so things that are refreshed a lot are quicker than less used processes. I try my best but a unique search query will always be the slowest kind of thing you can do.

Problem I have seen is some lemmy servers spend a lot each month - eg 100-300 per month on hosting - and while obviously things are faster, when donations dry up then they get shut down. This is disruptive to users. This server is fully paid easily by me each month so this is not a danger. Is that better? Maybe, depends on your outlook. Stability vs performance. Maybe one day we will be big enough to upgrade. For now this is working.

No not really. The server is a $15 month server. On the plus side it has no danger of being shut down. On the bad side its slower than some servers.

If you use voyager app its faster as it goes via the api. You can try that.

To improve response time for new signups and moderation in case of reports we are looking for people to assist as admins. To join you just need to:

  1. have been part of the server for 6 months
  2. be active daily (ie be able to login and assist)
  3. have a reliable post history showing you are mostly normal and not getting into constant trouble.

If this sounds like something you can help with send me a pm.

Voyager phone app for lemmy (lemmy.myserv.one)
 

To new users, please use voyager app for lemmy. This is what I test upgrades against and will always be made to work for lemmy. If it fails to function after an upgrade we will always roll back so it continues to function for users, so long as the app is not ever abandoned etc. Obviously you may use whatever app you want, but its functionality is not checked etc.

Server move recap (lemmy.myserv.one)
 

Post server migration recap:

Server move is completed as well as now the various scripts that keep the server doing what its supposed to. This includes the onsite and offsite backups so if there is any failure now we have copies locally of everything and as well as off site with the object storage provider in a different bucket.

Total cost is $15 a month for the server and backups so it is easy to pay for (basically cost of a starbucks coffee) and no risk of anything happening. It should be faster now and so on as I optimised the containers and how they were working as well.

Since the new server has more resources I have been able to clean up some of the scripts and there are no more reboots at all (previously server rebooted once per day). The only interruption is a daily stop of the dockers and backup which takes like 15 minutes total daily just to ensure postgres is consistent and easy to restore. This happens at 03:31-03:46 EST early morning.

Considering I just did a VPS server move and we have full consistent backups off site that are continually working both before snd after the move it seems likely that the service should continue to remain in action one way or another no matter what happens. I know hexbear instance died so just triple checked we wont have any similar upsets due to some oversight. Server = safe. Finances = safe. We should be good.

Im just going to leave the server alone and not log into it for a week and then see how it performed after that. I was fiddling around a bit last few days unfortunately just because after a server move a few things need changing to be more appropriate. I also had to log a bug on github for something to do with one of the packages used on the server. The server also got upgraded to latest Debian.

Many thanks P

Server move completed (lemmy.myserv.one)
 

I have completed the server move from old VPS to new VPS. As a result we now had extra CPU,RAM and Disk space.

I have also enabled stats for the server here now: http://lemmy.myserv.one:2095/monitorix username/pass: lemmy/lemmy

Let me know if anything is not working. I think its all working.

Many thanks, P

Server change and downtime (lemmy.myserv.one)
 

I have decided the best way to resolve the issues of disk space on the server is to change VPS providers. The server setup has to continue to be extremely cheap and incur no cost to the community, and the current provider does nto have plans that include the required disk space at a fair price point.

As a result I will need to change providers. The current VPS is : 8GB, 4CPU, 180GB disk.

I wish to change providers to this setup: 16GB, 6VPU, 400GB disk.

The cost is similar but as you can see I get more resources from changing the provider. This does mean I have to take everything offline, copy everything to a new VPS over the internet and then reconfigure everything on a new VPS. As a result I am selecting 14,15 and 16 February to do this. The server will either be down or only semi accessible on these days.
