Dunno about the mods, but the AZ admins are 100% happy to continue to platform racists>

Untrue. Starting with a statement of “fact” like that immediately has me questioning if you are posting in good faith.

When alerted and given information, they’ll maybe remove one or two offending posts but do absolutely nothing about the user despite a repeated history of it.>

The information you’ve previously compiled was either moderated already, or deleted by author when I saw most of if. What remained were ambiguous, possibly offensive comments if interpreted in particular ways . Either way… I didn’t see anything warranting further action than had already occurred. That and your actions at the time, harassing said user in every thread they posted in, had me take your input with a large grain of salt.

As far as I’m concerned the instance is run in very very bad faith.>

I don’t think there is anything I can say to convince you how wrong you are on this one. We do the best with the information available to us, and we’re only human.

As for your edit:

why you refuse to take meaningful action>

I’m not. I’m happy to ban users when it is warranted.

why you refuse to take meaningful action against racism towards Aboriginal peoples>

Can you point me towards any such content on AZ?

allow said racist to continue to operate on your platform?>

I’ve not seen any unaddressed reports for them that warrant action on my part. I’m not online 24x7 though, so often reports are addressed by other mods/admins before I see what was reported.

Looking over comments from this user, I see plenty to dislike. But I won’t ban a user because I dislike them, their opinions or necessarily how they express them.

Re-read my previous comment, I won’t be commenting further.

No. AZ isn’t run by rules lawyers, no interest in posting every single possible action that contravenes “don’t be a dick”.

Yes… no response in the sub 1 hour timeframe since you messaged me.

I consider editorialised headlines to break global rule 0 of AZ, especially when being deliberately antagonistic in attempting to provoke a fight from those with differing opinions to you. ie don’t be a dick. If you want to pick a fight, do it elsewhere.

In this case, I agree with the broad strokes of your opinion on the topic of the article you linked. Repost it with the original published title and it will stay. Add your own commentary to the post, not the headline.

Probably both this and cloudflare caching. Looks like I set CF to cache for 1 year at some point, I can lower it… but that won’t “fix” this, only limit the time its an issue for.

His term has covered 4 months so far… Jan, Feb, Mar, Apr.

Can turn it off and find out. I’ve done this a few times, each time I’ve ended up turning it back on… I figure better brief downtime at a low usage time, than random downtime that may require intervention to resolve.

I’ll give as much notice as possible, whatever ends up happening.

All good questions, that I don’t have any answers to. Plenty of time to figure it out… I’ll probably be looking at the larger players to see where this goes, and what clarifying information the government put out next year.

Bugger

Yeah I like it too… but it was generating an abnormal amount of traffic. I’ll see if I can figure out what is going on… but mlmym is pretty basic, doesn’t seem to have much in the way of configuration options.

I especially like the look on this guy’s face…

Was told there would be puppies. A++ would view again.

Yeah… I understood outgoing federation of activities was linear FIFO. The new feature in 0.19.6 allows N instances of linear FIFO, with related activities federated in sequence.

Our outgoing activities go out very quickly, aussie.zone has a very low activity rate so remote instances don’t tend to get behind at all.

How a LW user replied to a current AZ post and had it show up here in a decent timeframe is a mystery to me, seeing as they’re still running their custom version of 0.19.3

I can only guess the order activities are federated in is random? Which doesn’t make much sense.

It’s configurable… defaults to 1 thread. Given we’re slowly catching up with LW during low activity parts of the day, I think 2 should be enough.

Not sure about the whole picture, but credit to Keating for bringing in compulsory superannuation.

0.19.6 includes many fixes and new features… the biggest for me is “Parallel federation sending”. This allows instance admins to send multiple federated activities in parrallel, rather than singly in series.

Not that its a real issue for other admins with activities from AZ, but I have set this to 2 for our outgoing activities.

Hopefully the lemmy.world admins will upgrade to 0.19.6 soon and do the same, this should allow AZ to catch up with activities from LW, and stay up to date. Over time as activities from LW have decreased we’ve “caught up” to within ~5 days of live. Doubling the rate that LW sends activities to AZ will help massively.

Ok… DB migration was an offline my migration, my bad. Took longer I expected… but we’re back in action 🤓
