I created the community aimusic. However it does not seem to federate to other instances.

Trying to search it from e.g. lemmy.world, mander.xyz or lemmy.dbzer0.com results in nothing. The pages just show errors. Also after a few attempts and using the search function from the respective instances yields nothing.

Did this happen with any other communities recently? Is this temporary and will resolve itself within the next days, or is there some deeper issue?

Huomasin, että artshare-yhteisön viestit olivat vähentyneet valtavasti. Kysäisin asiasta, ja näyttäisi siltä, että sopuli ei saa lemmy.worldista viestejä laisinkaan tai niissä on viivettä.

Tässä esimerkki: https://lemmy.world/post/14776968?scrollToComments=true

vs

https://sopuli.xyz/post/12019913?scrollToComments=true

Mistähän johtuisi?

Basically what the title says: Sopuli is super slow to load when I'm logged in, taking anywhere from 10 seconds up to a whole minute to load the website. I also just noticed that the Subscribed tab takes considerably longer to load that Local. The only add-on I have enabled on Sopuli is uBlock, but I've disabled that, but no significant effect. Is this a server thing, ie is Sopuli getting heavy traffic or is the mistake more likely to be on my end?

Edit: seems to have been fixed as of 29/30 April. Thanks, Mod!

Jos yrittää postata uuden topicin ainakin meta-osastoon, niin kieltä ei voi valita. Selaimen network-tabilta tulee oheinen virhe:

{"error":"language_not_allowed"}

tälle requestille:

https://sopuli.xyz/api/v3/post
payload: {"name":"Kielivalinta ei toimi","community_id":4,"body":"asdasdsadsads","language_id":44}

vaikuttaisi tapahtuvan sekä suomelle että englannille. Jos kieltä ei valitse, postaus onnistuu.

Mahtaisiko täältä löytyä vinkkejä siihen miten saisin oman taideportfolioni linkit toimimaan niin, että kuvien esikatselu toimisi aina?

Tästä linkistä muodostui preview: https://sopuli.xyz/post/9123511

Tästä ei: https://sopuli.xyz/post/10080062

Molemmissa käytetään og:image -metatagia.

Jälkimmäisessä oli alunperin jpegin tiedoissa orientaationa top-right, jonka myöhemmin korjasin top-left. Pohdin olisiko tuosta kiinni ja korjautuisiko preview jos jokin lemmyn cache nollautuisi tuolle linkille.

Hello I just noticed that the custom theme options in the user settings seem to not apply correctly when I select them, when selecting any one of the custom themes available here the page becomes very buggy

Not sure if this is related to the 0.19 upgrade or not but I wanted to make this post so hopefully it can be fixed.

Tagging admins so they see it:
@QuentinCallaghan@sopuli.xyz
@Moxvallix@sopuli.xyz

Edit: The themes which are broken are:

• darkspace
• lora-compact
• lora-distractionless
• lora -mintybubble
• winternord

Hei

Tiedän,että täällä Sääntö 5 kieltää mainostamisen, mutta mites yleishyödyllisen sisällön mainostaminen? Tässä tapauksessa eräs Youtubettaja yrittää estää The Crew-pelin kuoleman,mutta tarvitsee muiden pelin omistajien apua ja ajattelin,että Sopulit halutessaan voisivat auttaa, jos teille modeille sopii tämmösestä aiheesta postaus. Ainoa asia jota tässä kuluu on siihen käytetty aika ja vaiva.

Hei, anteeksi jo valmiiksi huonosti pohjustetusta postauksesta. Haluaisin kysyä muilta sopulin käyttäjiltä, miten he ovat kokeneet Hexbear- instanssin? Tällä hetkellä sopuli on "defederoitu", jonka tajusin etsiessäni kuntoilukanavaa, joista suurin taitaa olla juurikin Hexbearin puolella. Tarkoitan, että osa hyvästä sisällöstä on vaarassa jäädä sinne loukkuun.

Kaksi asiaa, miksi kehtaan asiaa tuoda esille: A) Muissa isohkoissa yhteisöissä on käyty keskustelua puoleen ja toiseen asiasta. B) Viestihistorian mukaan defederaatio tehtiin aikanaan varotoimena.

Siksi lähinnä herättelen keskustelua muiden jäsenten kanssa.

Tämä postaus ei puolla tai vastusta päätöstä.

I posted this thread on jlai.lu. I got no replies as far as I could see from sopuli -- no notifications, and when I enter that thread there are still zero replies. But when I visit the thread on the hosting instance, I see a reply. This behavior is the same as if I were blocking that community -- but I am not.

When I search in sopuli for the direct link to the comment, the search finds it. And then I was able to forcibly interact with the comment.

I have to wonder how often someone replies to me and I have no idea because the response is hidden from me. This is a serious bug. Wholly unacceptable for a platform designed specifically for communication.

update 1 (another occurrence)

Here’s another thread with the same issue. Zero replies when I visit that thread mirror within sopuli, but 3 replies when visiting direct. I was disappointed that high-effort post got no replies. Now 2 months later I see there actually were replies. I will search those comment URLs perhaps in a couple days to interact. But I’ll hold off in case someone wants to investigate (because I think the act of searching those URLs results in copying the comments which could interfere with the investigation).

update 2 (subscription relevancy)

I was asked if I am subscribed to the community. Good question! The answer is no, so there’s a clue. Perhaps mentions do not trigger notifications if no one on the instance of the mentioned account is subscribed to the community. This could be the root cause of the bug.

Hello I'm looking for an instance to create a bot account to moderate community from another instance. I was already denied 2 times so I decided to ask first

Tried uploading an image I took with my phone camera into a Lemmy post, and failed.

I gotta admit that the image was indeed large (4MB). Refusing it would be reasonable. After resizing the image, it was successful.

What I found to be unreasonable was the error message. It returned a bunch of JSON garbage on the pop-up.

I ended up having to move from my phone to my computer and went on the network inspect tool just to see what's going on (a "file too large" error).

I would suggest a clearer error message. I don't know how this could be implemented, but it will be a deterent to a lot of people.

Hello! The upgrade to Lemmy's newest version went fine but images from Sopuli are not currently showing. The upgrade also included pict-rs that takes care of hosting images. The newest pict-rs version requires a database migration to be done in the background, and that's why images are not showing. This is only temporary and should take several hours. Don't panic!

EDIT 15.01.2024: The pict-rs database migration is STILL ongoing, as there is a huge amount of saved images to be handled. This post will be pinned as long as it is ongoing.

EDIT 17.01.2024: The migration is done and images are showing up again.

Hei! Päivitys Lemmyn uusimpaan versioon meni hyvin mutta Sopulin kuvat eivät nyt näy. Päivitys sisälsi myös pict-rs:n, joka hoitaa kuvien tallennuksen. Uusin pict-rs:n versio vaatii taustalla ajettavan tietokannan migraation, ja sen takia kuvat eivät näy. Tämä on vain väliaikaista ja kestää useita tunteja. Älkää panikoiko!

PÄIVITYS 15.01.2024: Pict-rs:n tietokannan migraatio on EDELLEEN käynnissä, koska siinä on iso määrä tallennettuja kuvia käsiteltävänä. Tämä viesti on kiinnitettynä niin pitkään kuin se on käynnissä.

PÄIVITYS 17.01.2024: Migraatio on valmis ja kuvat näkyvät taas.

Hello! Lemmy’s new version 0.19.2 got released few days back and I am planning to upgrade Sopuli today at 16:00 (Finnish time). The instance may be then offline for some time so be prepared!

Update 18:20 : The upgrade is done

Hei! Lemmyn uusi versio 0.19.2 julkaistiin muutama päivä sitten ja suunnittelen päivittäväni Sopulin tänään klo 16:00. Instanssi on tällöin alhaalla jonkin aikaa joten varautukaa!

Päivitys 18:20 : Päivitys on valmis

Hopefully this is the right place for a support request, because this is where the sidebar in Main directed me.

I've been noticing intermittent issues with posting in Sopuli.xyz communities over the past couple of weeks. Occasionally posts will sit with zero votes, comments, etc. for hours, which is unusual, especially for the popular Memes community (even a joke that flops would usually have some downvotes). It seems like these posts may eventually show up for people after many hours, because they'll suddenly start receiving votes and comments, but I can tell that something is off. Is there a known issue?

Example from today (1 person interacted with the post in 5+ hours):

Now that I think about it, I hope this post is visible.

Since 0.19, the federation does not work correctly anymore, and requires regular restart of the Lemmy process (as far as I understand). Just in case you also noticed that it became a bit more empty in here.

On that note, maybe we can postpone future lemmy updates until the most major issues are ironed out? Then we would not suffer so much from these issues in the future :)

Otherwise, thank you a lot for running sopuli, it is a pleasure to be here!

Discussion pro/con encouraged in this thread

Hello! Lemmy's new version 0.19.0 just got released and I am planning to upgrade Sopuli tomorrow at 15:00 (Finnish time). The instance may be then offline for some time during the upgrade so be prepared.

I decided to tell about this beforehand because the update is HUGE and I wouldn't be surprised if there were some problems involved in installation.

EDIT: The upgrade is complete and Sopuli is up!

Hei! Lemmyn uusi versio 0.19.0 julkaistiin juuri ja suunnittelen päivittäväni Sopulin huomenna klo 15:00. Instanssi saattaa olla poissa linjoilta jonkin aikaa päivityksen aikaan, joten varautukaa.

Päätin kertoa tästä etukäteen, koska päivitys on ISO, enkä yllättyisi jos sen asentamisessa olisi jotain ongelmia.

EDIT: Päivitys on valmis ja Sopuli on ylhäällä!

Hi, I have a community on lemmy.ml where I have a bot that reposts stuff from Reddit. It got banned though because it turns out reddit reposts aren't allowed on there. Does sopuli have a similar rule or could I migrate my Reddit repost community to here?

Thanks!

Onko mahdollista? Tuntuu, että lemmy.world instanssin lankoihin kirjoitetut kommentit ei aiheuta mitään aktiivisuutta. Ei kommentteja, ylä- tai alaääniä. Lisäksi lähes kaikki vastaukset tulee muiden instanssien käyttäjiltä.

EDIT: Ei mitään sittenkään. Se olikin ihan tavallinen banni. Kuvittelin, että niistä tulisi ilmoitus.

I've seen some users have animated avatars. I have tried setting a gif and apng as avatar, but it doesn't seem to animate.

How do they do it?

Just transferred all of my subscriptions and blocks from my older, former main account on another instance and I have to say I couldn't be happier that Sopuli is not federated with lemmynsfw and such, my block list for communities was in the four figures over there and here it's hundreds and hundreds less. I'm so happy for being able to scroll All without having to play whack-a-mole with a billion porn communities most of which have and ever will only have the one active person. Every, goddamn, time. I literally had a mental checklist of searchwords I'd go through once a week or two and it'd be dozens and dozens every week and even that didn't cover it.

Just wanted to post if there is ever a question of whether to federate with instances like this. Especially as long as there is no way to block instances. It really makes a maaaasssive difference.

Right now I can't use sopuli via Connect for Lemmy app but the website seems to work fine. Any ideas whether this is a problem with the server or the client? The app just says that sopuli.xyz is not responding.

Saako täällä mitenkään ladattua koko viestihistoriaa teksitiedostona mieluiten siten, että siinä olisi pelkästään viestit ilman mitään timestamppeja etc.

Sorry if this is the wrong place to post this. Hope people are interested!
