PSA for Misskey/fork admins: Misskey relies on Redis for long-term data storage. It is not just a caching solution, and wiping redis will result in permanent data loss.

This is contrary to most guides and documentation regarding redis, because Misskey is actually using it wrong. But unfortunately, lots of data is only stored in Redis with no way to re-create it from Postgres:

• All notifications
• Most timelines, if Fanout Timelines is enabled
• Charts and graphs
• Federation jobs, including delayed / scheduled jobs
• Antennas (they "reset" and lose all posts)
• User lists (they "reset" and lose all posts)
• Trending hashtags / notes
• Reversi games
• WebAuthn
• User profiles (specifically the list of posts)

If you ever lose or rollback your Redis cluster, then all of the above will be impacted. So please take regular backups!

Every municipality should run their own Fedi server. For less than $10 a month any muni can stand up a #Sharkey server and branded to the city/ county/ town/ etc's branding, and granting accounts to each department/ elected official.

🏕️ my adventures in self-hosting: day 220 (roller coaster edition) 🎢

A new blog post where I discuss how sanity prevailed and I will NOT install my own Lemmy instance. But! Now I'm tempted to set up something else. Thankfully reality for now is disrupting my fanciful plans.

Just deleted my Bluesky account.

The Fedi is home for me.

#Mastodon#Sharkey#Fediverse

Got a #Sharkey question:

Does its api have a /verify_credentials endpoint? It looks like someone is trying to log in to Pelago from a Sharkey instance, but the application is getting back a 403 Forbidden when trying to call it and verify the access token.

I'll dig in and see if I can find public api docs for it, but wanted to ask in case someone more generally had an idea.

I have now found 1070 verified accounts from media organizations in the #Fediverse, but only on #Mastodon, #Flipboard, #Threads, #Bluesky, #Ghost and #Peertube.

Just one is on #Sharkey (👋🏻 @heiseBotti) and none on #Pixelfed, #Lemmy, #Piefed, #Misskey & Co. Are there really none there, or did I miss some?

Killer Feature on #Sharkey

Every File you attach gets stored in a "Drive" where you can sort them into folders. Aaand - it saves the Alt-Text with it.

Sooo: Perfect for Response Collection Peeps!

I'm curious about people's thoughts around Misskey and its forked projects.

1. Why is Misskey so popular in Asia, but not used much in the west? Why do you think the preferences are so different between the regions?
   
2. What is wrong with Misskey that some people are willing to invest their time and money on separate forks (IceShrimp, Sharkey). What's the difference between the forks and the originals?
   
3. Does anyone have experience running any of these? Do they have any downsides like, for example, a database that grows unreasonably fast or that requires too many resources?
