spam spam spam


Today I have deleted 80% of my "users" on the server.

Almost all of them logged in first and last the same day as the account was created, posted an advertisementy bio, some even posted one ad, then left and never came back.

It takes multiple clicks and fiddle to delete those, and while they should not have been there anyway it would be nice to be able to remove them easer and faster.
spam (x) spambot (x)
Now, for a change, I have set preapproval for #registrations.
There is about 6 #spambots per day, out of which about 0.5 being a #spammer human.
I only had 3 #friendica spambots today. What's up guys, net problems?
(Would be neat to have some captchas, ain't it?)


Terms of Service


I seem to have carefully crafted the Terms of Service of my Friendica instance back then in the middle of the night I have installed it: ToS

I see your post twice. Are you two person? 😉

I'm seeing your post here on hubzilla as well now.



Societies with Archaic Systems of Governance, at Mercy of Irrationality


So much is a distraction from failures of systems of government that are ill-equipped to respond to crises. States like these respond to crises as security threats, propaganda, by force of violence, lockdowns. Advanced & competent ones respond by rational means, building trust among people.

Italian journalists covering anti-lockdown protests face increasing violence - Nov 2020[/i]




How Julian #Assange was stitched up by the corrupt Swedish state, Britain and the US. Read this interview with the UN Special Rapporteur on Torture, Nils Melzer. It's a lesson for every journalist who challenges power and why #Assange must be freed. https://www.republik.ch/2020/01/31/nils-melzer-about-wikileaks-founder-julian-assange

És még szálakban is lehet fogalmazni minden kérdésre?


Professional


I seem to have became an involuntary tester of what happens when Friendica worker doesn't run for a long period of time.


Porn setting


One of my settings say:
When an account is created on the site, it is given a hard
I am not completely sure I want to know what's this setting for…

What's the point of spambot registrations?


I see that my little server have accumulated about a dozen of registrations, some from the well-beloved protonmail, others various freemail email registrations.
As far as admin UI knows they have never logged in, never have posted anything.

What Is The Point of empty registrations?

!Friendica Support ← maybe this works that way?


Hello wo… I mean, um, here we go again


As for #facebook alternatives the list isn't that long: diaspora is one, friendica is other, and... um...

So it seems I shall rather update the instance and get it for good public use. People are getting booted from FB in raising frequency.
It's much more 2020.09-1, if you don't mind me correcting.


My fight with #Friendica goes on


Apart from plenty of PHP errors in apache log (and zero in log/friendica.log) the system seems to work. More or less.

The current source of fun is worker.php, which is supposed to run every 10 minutes or so. Looks like Friendica doesn't continuously dequeue outbound or poll inbound but it have to be done periodically. Oh my.

Still, worker runs for the last 20 minutes and doesn't show any sign that she would like to finish too soon. God knows what it's doing since there's no output, no log, no none. Does a lot of web connection to unknown places for unknown reasons. Pretty low visibility.

Still direct message (PM) doesn't seem to work too well: there is no recipient.

Oh, and now I see that input field doesn't offer
Click to open/closeformatting after writing
.
The PM problem turned out to be broken theme problem: both Vier and Smoothly is broken regardig thise (and possibly others).

Thanks go to @Hypolite Petovan


Mumbling to particularly nobody


So it seems installing #Friendica was succeeded.

I still have to review the config, since it's PHP you know, shall be untusted as much as possible.

So far it seems to work flawlessly, albeit pretty slow.

Some tests already succeeded to #mastodon and #diaspora (more or less).

I'll see whether I'll see this message elsewhere. 😉
