Database size


Hello !Friendica Support,

about a week ago my database grew massively, from about 11GB to over 20GB. I assume that it is related to this pull-request (10484). Is this normal or is there something that did not work properly when updating the database?

#Friendica #database


Hello !Friendica Support
Turns out my memory problem with #Friendica might not be configuration related after all.

Browsing through my #Friendica website and looking at htop really is frustrating right now. Selecting an existing photo as my profile photo lets memory use peak at 35GB on my single user (some news accounts) server.

Usual memory usage is 5 GB and and load 0.5, but load peaks at 8... Also some other actions trigger real high memory usage.


PeerTube-Videos nahtlos einbinden?


!Friendica Support

Ich suche nach einer Möglichkeit, Videos von #Peertube in #Friendica direkt einzubetten - also nicht als Link auf die Seite. Ich möchte, dass es sich nahtlos in die Timeline einbettet wie das YT-Zeugs auch.

Mein Beispiel:
https://tube.tchncs.de/videos/watch/3f648960-d8d2-406d-8bf7-1a1844eac38a

Unter 'Teilen' gibt es bei PeerTube auch die Option, ein IFrame-Schnippsel zu bekommen. Aber das scheint nicht weiter zu helfen.

Wer hat 'nen Tipp?

Posts with Pictures


Hello !Friendica Support,

I think there is a federation problem with posts that contain more than one image. On Friendica and Diaspora all images are visible, on Mastodon (and in apps like Tusky) only one image is visible.

For example in this post: https://friendica.xyz/redir/110?url=display/adf174d5-7160-eec3-e951-318533324649

Friendica 'Siberian Iris' 2021.09-dev - 1429

#friendica #bug #federation


I guess the setup is the problem, I don't have time to change this now, but I will probably add a dedicated DB server for Friendica, so split it to web and DB Server at some point.

The server OOM happens always between 3:15 and 3:45 in the morning. No process runs at that time, so it might be some higher external load. I think next I will try to block all crawlers. Now the memory footprint it very low, fortunately #Friendica still works well like that. But I am not sure why MariaDB, still uses that much RAM, I thought I set it to use 9 GB max, but the DB is probably 30 GB now and if some setting permits it will use lots of RAM of course. So I need to check that.


I host my own decentralized social media #Friendica node and I use a custom domain for email but I would never run my own mail server.

With regards to your initial question, mastodon.social is more a convenience than anything else. All their users are united by the common fact they didn’t have to look for another Mastodon instance to register an account on the #Fediverse. I don’t mean this negatively, convenience is a valuable quality.


Hello !Friendica Support
anyone knows where we keep the art, the logo of #Friendica and such?

Wenn Du zu den "Friendicas" gehörst ... Hast Du das Logo mit Schriftzug als SVG? Ich habe nur das "F" gefunden und den Schriftzug (mit der falschen Schrift) hinzugefügt... a@kuketzblog@social.tchncs.de



promotion and crowdsourcing campaign


@Friendica Support

offtopic,
but no idea where else to post this.

Hi there!
I'm think about kinda a campaign to promote the categories mentioned in this post and a possibility to do some crowdsourcing/crowdfunding.

On the monetary part I'm not interested at all to take part in it.
Not in the administration nor the decisions about the distribution.
In other words I wont take part in those aspects.
(most likely I will try to take part in the discussion)

What is needed to go on thinking about it would be a (I guess bitcoin) multisig wallet created with #electrum.
For that purpose it's necessary to define/find the people who hold the keys, how many keys and the kind of multisig wallet.
(2/3, 2/4, 3/5, 3/6 for example)

If you are not familiar with the terms just ask as many "stupid" learning questions as you want.

Problems installing friendica 20.21 04 on shared host


@Friendica Support

Hi there!
Installing a new friendica site.
Last time I installed 2019.12 and didn't have mayor problems in the initial step browsing to the domain for the first time.
https://forum.friendi.ca/display/39bbe52a-385e-6dad-3cdc-6c6128916067

This time I ran into two required problems.
After adding the "Command line PHP" path i get this:

PHP cli binary Requirement not satisfied Required

PHP executable is not a php cli binary; it could possibly be a cgi-fgci version.
Found PHP version:

The other problem:

Program execution functions Requirement not satisfied Required

Error: Program execution functions required but not enabled.

What to do?
(couldn't find help in the wiki and websearch)
--------------------
On the cronjob for worker.php
Should the path point just to the domain name or additionally to:
/htdocs/bin/worker.php
??

Hello !Friendica Support,
I got a some "Newsaccounts", there is @hubsiundhorsti2.0, @Andre Meister (Inoffiziell) and @NilsMelzer, I follow all of them from @utzer, but @hubsiundhorsti2.0 and @Andre Meister (Inoffiziell) do not show any contacts in their contacts, as if there is no followers at all. But @NilsMelzer has plenty of followers.

All accounts are "Newspages" or in Germany "Nachrichtenseiten".

What is the reason for the newer @hubsiundhorsti2.0 and @Andre Meister (Inoffiziell) not having any contacts?

#Friendica is pulling random feeds again from #Nitter, I wonder where the bug is, neither of the projects seem to think it is on their side. It is this kind of problem where you as a user have to proof who is to blame.

Anyone a tipp how to check, maybe pull the feed a thousand times an check if Nitter delivers the wrong one at some point? I am following the feed in my feed reader, but there I did not have this problem yet, while Friendica had this before already.

Tips from the !Friendica Support ?

R to @VoltNederland: Nilüfer’s Kamervraag over het verbod op conversietherapie is helaas niet aan bod gekomen tijdens het vragenuurtje van gisteren. Daarom heeft zij , samen met collega-Kamerleden Sylvana Simons (Bij1) en Barbara Kathmann (PvdA) haar vragen schriftelijk voortgezet. 5/5


This morning /tmp was full, clearly #Friendica or #PHP, but didn't have time to check, so just rebooted the server.
Is there a command to wipe the #Linux temp folder? Not rm -rf or so.

Hello !Friendica Support
I saw there is alot of fuss about #Friendica now supporting Mastodon clients with the new API that @Michael Vogel implemented, so I thought lets try some client for GNU/Linux and took the first one Searx returned, it is called Tootle and available via standard Ubuntu repository.
Installed it, entered the domain of my instance, it opened some oauth page where I clicked on yes... and nothing happens, but Tootle expects some "Code" to be entered.

  • Maybe someone is brave enough to install this Electron (I think it is) based client and can confirm my problem.
  • Can suggest some other client for now?


Why not try #Friendica? You can interact with both #Diaspora and #Mastodon (and Pleroma, Misskey, PeerTube, FunkWhale, GNU Social, Twitter if you have an account…)


This 2014 talk by @Pinboard about the future of web technology still is relevant today, and I like to think that my work on #Friendica is contributing to Web Future Vision 1 of connecting knowledge, people and cats. Well, mostly people and cats.

Per API erstellte Kommentare


Hallo !Friendica Support,

mir ist gerade aufgefallen, dass Kommentare die ich auf via API auf Tusky erstelle, nicht an Diaspora ausgeliefert werden.

Anyone running the current #Friendica RC with PHP 8? Does it work well?

Would like to remove the PHP downgrade again from my servers.

Hello !Friendica Support,
any of the developers know why the view of tag search is different from the other message views (like /network)?
I would like to be able to like or reshare posts there directly, also would like to see the last few comments... just like the other views.

So generally I wonder why this tag search results are shown in a different layout, couldn't the same layout be used there as for /network?

Hello !Friendica Support,
anyone any idea what this messages in journalctl mean? I got lots of these before my server crashed and have no Idea what this is.

I guess something was wrong with either MariaDB or the VM itself that cause long operation times on the database which led to lots of long running locks. But what do I do with this?

Why do photos not come through on some #Mastodon servers? Is there size restrictions for received photos on some Mastodon servers?

Ok, der Bundestag hat also Uploadfilter beschlossen.

War es das nun mit dem #Fediverse? Ich wüsste nicht, wie ich das kontrollieren soll oder gibt es da Ausnahmen?
Die "Bagatellgrenze" mit 15 Sekunden Video, 160 Zeichen Text oder 125 kB kleinen Bildchen ist ja nen Witz...

Im Grunde muss ich als #Friendica & #Mastodon Betreiber ja jegliche Uploads nun unterbinden...

Muss mal eine Frage zum Erstellen von Beiträgen loswerden: Wenn ich einen Beitrag erstelle und über das Heftklammern-Symbol eine externe Seite per URL referenziere, dann wird diese lediglich als Teaser ohne Bild in meinem Beitrag eingebunden - siehe Screenshot.

Wie kann ich es erreichen, dass zusätzlich auch des Teaserbild der Seite in meinen Beitrag eingebettet wird? Dass das geht, sehe ich anderswo bei #Friendica.

Mal eine Frage an alle die #FreshRSS nutzen: Wie bringe dieses dazu, Artikel hier in #Friendica zu teilen?
Ich hatte das schon mal hinbekommen, weiß es aber jetzt nicht mehr. :-/

I only had 3 #friendica spambots today. What's up guys, net problems?
(Would be neat to have some captchas, ain't it?)


Working 20 years on this and you never figured out called a loosely defined group of people "encryptionists" wouldn't be the best way to have a conversation about it?

Screw your FUD about encryption being vaguely "dangerous", I say encrypt all the things, it has nothing to do with things being open or not. And screw your useless popularity contest between #ActivityPub and #Diaspora, I'm reading your useless drivel over ActivityPub because you yourself chose Mastodon to share it, and I would have read it the same if you chose Diaspora because the Diaspora protocol is open and #Friendica supports both ActivityPub and Diaspora protocols.

Fundamental thinking my ass, you just scraped the surface and thought you found gold.


Update von Friendica auf Shared-Hosting :-(



Hello !Friendica Support
I run this bot here: @NASAPersevere
It works fine on #Friendica, it reposts from Twitter via a Nitter RSS feed (see the profile for details), but when it arrives on #Mastodon it lost all the photos.

Any idea where these are lost?

Here is how it looks on Mastodon:


#Friendica still is in this boat. 😅 It's our only email address verification method at the moment.


I feel torn between implicit vs. explicit mentions and detailed vs. condensed notifications. I switch both options every few weeks because I can't decide which I like better. 🤔

Help! 😁 #Friendica


#Friendica which I'm replying from has a built-in RSS/Atom reading feature, I "follow" feeds the same way I follow Fediverse/Diaspora accounts.


I was wondering how I can follow hashtags on #Friendica and I did some searching. Apparently
the #ActivityPub protocol doesn't allow hashtag following in the sense that all posts with that tag get into your timeline.
Didn't find much about that on the internet Can somebody confirm this? This would explain why Friendica doesn't do it either.
