I don’t have an intention to block threads here

I will see if this is a know issue with lemmy

I am still here. Just don’t post much. I unblocked feddit.nl. It was quite problematic in the past but willing to try again.

You can see the details on user counts here: https://fedidb.org/network/instance/infosec.pub.

There are about 450 active accounts.

It’s hard to pin down the memory and CPU usage, as it’s running on a very large pair of AMD servers that host many sites. I posted the details of those servers are in the thread below. Prior to moving to this server, I was running the instance on a single 16 core AMD system with 64GB of ram.

Disk wise, it uses about 500GB. Overall, it is pretty efficient, particularly compared to kbin/mbin, however I think those are tough to compare against, since they have streaming updates and a heavier user interface.

My server bill is about $3000 per month, but that includes Infosec.exchange, which is a very large instance with about 17000 active users.

I don’t play around any more :)

ok - infosec.pub is now running on my main infrastructure - a 48 core/96 thread AMD epyc zen4 genoa with 256GB of DDR5 ECC ram and 2x4TB nvme SSDs, backed by a dedicated database server with the exact same specs, on a 10gbps network.

Hello - I will take a look. There isn’t an obvious problem

Done

What site is the “loud extremists”?

I block instances that are the source of issues - shitjustworks caused a river of complaints - I don’t think I’ve seen any from the others.

I block them as they come up as problematic. There isn’t a handy list of instances to block like in mastodon. I will block those others.

I appreciate the offer and will likely make a call for more help soon.

It’s 100x worse than Mastodon but 100x better than kbin (so far)

it looks like something has been wrong with federation since I applied the patch to fix the vulnerability. I am investigating…

I am working on it…

ok - we are back in business with the fix applied. I am guessing that there will be many more issues like this. Hold on to your butts…

I’ve turned off federation and the ability to create new communities until a fix is released.

I do what I can…

You bet! I am glad to be able to do it

I think v0.18 may have a few bugs. But it’s still far better than the prior version

My best guess is that it’s because infosec.pub is running lemmy 0.18.0 and startrek.website is still using 0.17.8. Jerboa may need an update - the new version of lemmy just came out yesterday.
