Apologies for the lack of posts these days. Japan's lovely and I'm out every day. Additionally my family back home can't into rebooting a downed server so I've been struggling to get Schwartzwelt back up. Though, Mitra's been advancing steadily so if I can have foreign images baked in instead of mediaproxying I'm moving everything here.

GUNDAM IS REAL GENTLEMEN

Happy Sunday!

@Tij Finally, the first post from boymoder.biz that isn't total coal. :falinchew:

Gm, I'm on a metro right now so here is wife

I let the autism get to me today. I regret nothing. :watameloncool3d:

WE ARE NOW ON 4.1.1
HOPEFULLY NOTHING BROKE :watamelonchips:

Connecting to my servers now is slow as heck. Anyone got a decent guide on CDNmaxxing for Pleromer/Mitra without relying on Cuckflare? Main options I'm aware of are Bunny CDN, S3 buckets and having even moar VPS'.

@waifu Well you applied art theory in drawing toes, it checks out :cirnoshrug:

@silverpill I've noticed relays ending in actor (e.g. https://relay.poster.place/actor and https://relay.fedi.agency/actor) don't show up whatsoever. Most Pleroma instances I notice have a relay actor I can find but it's inconsistent and my @relaystalker seems to be stuck at follow requesting for the ones I tried to follow. If I missed something obvious please let me know!

@mischievoustomato This is quite literally why Go was invented

@theorytoe @rlier23 @kilostere I would have disagreed, however by posting I am already proving the existence of a hivemind.

@mischievoustomato It means your posts, and yes I've made a feature request which included MRF-related stuff: https://codeberg.org/silverpill/mitra/issues/73

So far the MRF features have been implemented

@nyanide @rlier23 @sendpaws Just don't run it on a busted Fedora system like @mischievoustomato and you should be fine :^) :eowarmagus:

@nyanide @rlier23 For single user Mitra has been the best experience by far. Still has a couple of features from Pleroma I miss but beyond that everything is orders of magnitude better. Setup and maintenance (two most critical parts on single/limited user instances) are quick and painless, especially on Debian-based systems. Plus the dev is sane, pleasant, very active and actually listens to what users of his software want.

Don't just take my word though, @sendpaws wrote up his experience with Mitra here:

@sendpaws More precisely, marketing people think too small and too slow. They seek to maximize what they have now for the longest period of time, and don't see value in huge innovation within shorter timeframes. This leaves them highly vulnerable to getting the rug pulled from under them by disruptions (see: IBM and Xerox getting beaten to the punch on GUIs and personal computers by Apple because of this sclerosis)

@sendpaws Funny you mention Nokia, because they had all the tech necessary for the modern smartphone by 2001. They just refused to debut it for years because the management thought they could continue to make money on the current paradigm for the next 5-10 years before making a massive product change. Literally the IBM/Xerox management corruption Jobs talked about in that '95 interview.
t. Heard this from my boss worked for Nokia in Germany back in the day

I don't even need a fancy gui, just a way to add relays from the CLI because whenever I try to look up relay actors half the time there's no account. More importantly I need a way for those relays to not cause 500 quintillion terabytes of soyjaks, questionable feet posts and loli pornography media files to be cached on my server unintentionally.

These two pages are the only things keeping my main instance on Pleroma.
