It was removed deliberately during the reddit exodus in order to direct new Lemmy users elsewhere. Rather than to overload lemmy.ml further.

Hey I do exactly the same, high 5!

The kiwi’s have spun something up over here

Good bot.

Definitely, I understand some people would not want this.

The largest table holds data that is only needed by Lemmy briefly. There is a scheduled job to clear it… Every 6 months. There are active discussions on how best to handle this.

On my instance I’ve set a cronjob to delete everything but the most recent 100k rows of that table every hour.

By the way, upgradding to lemmy version 0.18.1 is well worth it. Some massive under the hood performance improvements 🙂

Mate, that sounds like an awesome night. I’d call that a win!

Your mum was a programmer in the 60s? She must be incredibly in so many ways!

Ok yeah, I guess for external links direct to images it makes sense for the image to be retrieved by each instance. Still, its not intuitive behaviour and it doesn’t seem to be widely understood at all.

Thanks for reporting back.

It may be a bug, I’m not sure.

On 0.18.1-rc.10 the defederated instances are at the very bottom, not on the right hand side.

Yeah, I’ve gone over 24 hours now without it occurring… but not calling it “fixed” until at least a week.

I’ve been seeing similar since upgrading to 0.18. Upgraded to 0.18.1-rc.9 yesterday… haven’t seen it reoccur again… yet.

Here is an example I happened to be at my PC for:

I wish I knew… I’ve seen the behavior you’ve described, but others tell me it doesn’t happen.

Not sure why you’re being downvoted, I had no idea about 88->HH etc. Your seemed like a genuine question. Was the BTTF 88MPH a nazi reference?? Changes the entire series if it is.

I wanted an instance specifically for Australians… so I made one 😀

Your instance must be very new, very few users, very inactive… or all of the above. I stood up aussie.zone just under a month ago, Postgres DB is currently 9.6GB.

Yep, that is nearly but not always the case.

Nope… thats what I’m talking about… image posts to remote communities, with the images being sourced from my instance. Like I said, next time I spot it I’ll dig into it further.

What software is your instance running?
