Federation bug in lemmy 0.19 which seems to be affecting lemmy.one

So there seems to a bug in version 0.19 where outgoing federation fails and so new content is not federated out to other instances. Incoming federation works fine and the bug itself is not affecting all instances on 0.19 but it seems lemmy.one is affected. There is a fix already published with 0.19.1

@jonah@lemmy.one could you please look into it.

Link to post telling about the bug and the 0.19.1 update to fix it - https://lemmy.ml/post/9559890

  • In the mean time I guess that you could copy the 1st 60 characters of your password to login.

    Edit - you can go to the lemmy github if you to air your grievance over the restriction of password length.

    On a personal note, how much extra protection does a 80+ length give over a 60 character one¿?

  • Is Ubuntu deserving the hate?
  • Course Fedora does literally the same thing and doesn't get any hate for it so idk. It's just a meme.

    When have fedora gone their own way ¿? What have they shipped that is not standard on Linux¿? Closest thing I can think is using selinux and firewalld instead of Apparmour and ufw.

  • After system updates, steam games won't switch from integrated to dedicated GPU when playing games
  • https://lemmy.one/post/151466 - This post may help you with issues you face with launching steam.

    I too have have an amd+amd laptop(MSI bravo 15 with 5600h+5500m) and I don't have any issues with switching from integrated graphics to dedicated graphics. The kernel decides itself(with help from the program running I am guessing) whether the iGPU or dGPU needs to be used. I face absolutely no freezing issues or issues in general related to graphics switching.

    What might be possibly causing your random freezes and stutters is the AMD fTPM. It's random number generator function is known to cause stuttering and freezing on both windows and Linux. AMD made several futile attempts at solving the issue before Linus ranted about it and then AMD disabled the RNG functionality. But almost all these patches are part of kernel 6.x series so maybe they have not made it downstream to the lts kernel you are running on(not surprising considering how much of a burden it seems supporting old kernels is). If possible, you could disable fTPM from the bios and see if that fixes your general freezing issues. Though I have to warn you that TPM is needed for secure boot(I think) and is used by some password managers for secure password storage so you might lose functionality by turning off the fTPM. Moving to a more modern distro which uses a newer kernel(6.4.7 and above iirc) may also help.

    Also out of curiosity, why is your GPU being shown as 5600 or 5600xt. I am assuming that you have a 5600m

  • lemmy.one has been defederated by lemmy.world
  • I dont think there is cause for concern. He was posting on mastadon a few days ago and was uploading videos on his youtube channel 2 weeks ago. I just think he is busy and cant make any time for lemmy. Hopefully he takes a little time to make some other people admins to keep lemmy.one functioning

  • lemmy.one has been defederated by lemmy.world
  • From what i gather, hesitations section in fediseer is just for the admins to list instances of concern rather than a list of instances they have defederated from(because if you see the list of instances they have actually defederated from at https://lemmy.world/instances, the numbers dont match). I would still expect them to make a post about defeding from a moderately big instance. They did it when they defederated from feddit.nl (which has less users than us)

  • Packman repository usage best practices on Opensuse Tumbleweed?
  • How did you switch mesa version without using the --allow-vendor-change flag. Did you manually uninstall the mesa packages shipped by opensuse and then switch them with mesa packages from packman? Vendor change is the only method recommended everywhere and no other methods are discussed so I am curious as to how you manage without it. Also how do track that the repos are synced. I have to manually check the packman website to see if the packages have been updated to version that opensuse is shipping. Do you do the same?

    Also sorry for the late reply

  • After system updates, steam games won't switch from integrated to dedicated GPU when playing games
  • Actually i dont think ubuntu or their derivatives are to blame here. The issues started after the big new ui update to steam. Somebody did raise the issue with valve and there is a thread on the bug but it seems they arent particularly interested in fixing the issue(maybe because it does not affect that many users?). Also once the command has been added, the experience should be just as smooth as normal. Why do you characterise it as just tolerable?

  • lemmy.one has been defederated by lemmy.world
  • This seems like a very valid concern. Though it does seem a little extreme. Who is this person who hates lemmy.world or lemmy in general so much that he or she is hacking into someone's account just to post disgusting stuff to the platform.

  • lemmy.one has been defederated by lemmy.world
  • I found no post or comment by the lemmy.world admins regarding defederation from us. How can they defederate from a decently big instance like us and not even inform their users about it. Could it be that they accidentally defederated from us

  • lemmy.one has been defederated by lemmy.world
  • But that's exactly my point. Sign-ups to lemmy.one were always closed so you needed approval from the admin(Jonah) to create an account on the instance. Now since Jonah is not actively involved, nobody can join lemmy.one because he is not approving their accounts anymore. So no new person can join the instance.

    As for the users already using a lemmy.one account, they have been using the fediverse peacefully without spamming anybody, even during the past 2 months when jonah was not actively moderating. In fact this seems to be one of the best behaved instances. Now maybe there is a sleeper agent among us lemmy.one users who was waiting for Jonah to become inactive before starting their spamming activities but somehow I seriously doubt that.

    Considering the points I laid out above, I feel that the defederation was an unnecessary action taken by the lemmy.world admins. The risk of spam is very miniscule and this small risk does not call for the use a nuclear option like defederation.

  • lemmy.one has been defederated by lemmy.world
  • I still don't understand the defederation. Yes we are using an older version of lemmy but unless federating to different versions causes some bugs or issues, what is their rationale¿? Signings are closed for lemmy.one(and always were) so it's not like random people will join lemmy.one and start spamming the lemmy.world instance beacuse Jonah is not active.

    Edit : I just checked up and they are still federated with many other instances running on older version of lemmy so I don't think that is the issue.

    [Bug] Certain comments seem to be hidden.

    So I am finding out that certain children comments are not shown at all so we have no idea that the original parent comment even had children comments associated with them. Is this something I did by messing with the settings or is this a bug¿?

    Packman repository usage best practices on Opensuse Tumbleweed?

    When using software and the codecs from the packman repo, what are the best practices associated with the updating and maintaince of these packages and the system in general. Do I have to wait for sometime before updating using dup or can I use the packman modules of mesa with updated versions of the mesa modules provided officially¿? Are their dependcy issues for software sourced from packman.

    Cant see some of my comments

    I had this bug recently on beta 40 where I would reply to a comment on a post and my comment would show up. Then if I refreshed the post to load in new comments, my reply would be collapsed and clicking on it would lead to a 'no comments added' message. The comment would still be visible in the profile section and from other lemmy apps.

    Edit : some photos as proof/example

    !

    !

    !

    Edit : This is not only an issue for my comments only, it is also issue for comments from other people aswell. Usually it seems to be an issue associated with the last comment of a thread where the these comments are collapsed in sync and when I expand them, no comments are added. But these actually exist and can be seen from other apps(voyager in my case). Oddly this does not happen for every comment thread but it happens with enough comments that it is noticable. I have not been able dig up any other commonilities between the disappearring comments other than the fact they appear at the end of comment chains/threads.

    Lower number of comments than expected

    So recently I have been facing this issue that several posts show a higher number of comments than the actual number of comments that i can see. For example in the photo, the number of comments is shown as 14 but the post only shows me 5 comments. Is this some sort of federation issue or is this a bug¿?

    Is there a list of instances that Lemmy.one has defederated with or have not federated with at all? I ask because recently, I see many posts with more comments than actually shown when the post is opened

    [Off-topic sorta] Pop_OS! on a non system76 device

    I am curious if the fact that a lot people use pop os on hardware other than system76 hardware is detrimental or helpful towards the development of the OS and the workload of the devs. Like if the number of users of pop os on different hardware configs increases, is that helpful for the devs considering that it may increase the number of bugs and hence result in an increase in worload

    Weird Steam launch behaviour

    So i installed steam recently on a new pop os install and when I launch steam from the application overview , it launches but disappears within an instant and then keeps trying to launch the steam homepage. There is an app indicator on the top bar so it is running in the background. When I launch from the CLI, it launches normally. Is anybody else facing this issue?
