<2022-09-05T18:57:58.000Z> clairebere: I wanted to ask about getting verified, but only if you aren't busy and have had enough sleep :D
<2022-09-05T18:59:42.000Z> clairebere: I don't have a big YT following or anything, I average 30-50 viewers on Twitch. But it would be nice to know nobody could impersonate me here. 
<2022-09-05T19:54:28.000Z> clairebere: Just saw your latest post about not messaging you or mods for verification, my apologies. Please disregard the above messages :)
<2022-09-05T21:30:21.000Z> graf: no its fine there's just so much going on right now
<2022-09-05T21:30:22.000Z> graf: we will get to it
<2022-09-05T22:09:59.000Z> clairebere: Okay 👍 absolutely no hurry
<2022-09-06T20:16:34.000Z> graf: you dont really meet our criteria but i did it anyway
<2022-09-06T20:17:03.000Z> clairebere: Haha okay well thank you for that
<2022-09-06T20:17:53.000Z> clairebere: I hope things have settled down for you some after the huge influx of members
<2022-09-15T22:28:13.000Z> clairebere: I bought a domain and hosting through BuyVM 
<2022-09-15T22:28:35.000Z> clairebere: Should I follow the installation guide on soapbox or use fediverse.express
<2022-09-15T22:35:21.000Z> graf: the guide on the soapbox website is fine if you don't mind getting your hands dirty but it's not as easy to upgrade 
<2022-09-15T22:56:49.000Z> clairebere: okay and I choose Pleroma for the setup?
<2022-09-15T22:57:27.000Z> clairebere: how different is Pleroma from Soapbox
<2022-09-15T23:04:47.000Z> graf: log into pl.poa.st 
<2022-09-15T23:04:54.000Z> graf: thats pleroma
<2022-09-15T23:05:06.000Z> graf: if you need assistance with fediverse.express, @pasture is the one in charge
<2022-09-15T23:07:26.000Z> clairebere: ok thank you
<2022-09-16T00:18:17.000Z> clairebere: i decided to do the soapbox install, is it common to run into errors installing elixir?
<2022-09-16T00:29:46.000Z> graf: what is the error?
<2022-09-16T00:31:32.000Z> clairebere attached file https://i.poastcdn.org/ccea3d69008320a6823be395c42bfafb75d58fd1be227dcb70bba7ca5106fd7f.png
<2022-09-16T00:32:11.000Z> clairebere: everything works fine until i do asdf install
<2022-09-16T00:35:07.000Z> graf: sudo apt install curl
<2022-09-16T00:35:08.000Z> graf: then try it again
<2022-09-16T00:35:25.000Z> graf: if you look in that log it says "curl command not found"curl is used to download the installation package, without it nothing gets downloaded
<2022-09-16T00:36:31.000Z> graf: this is normally installed on most linux installations
<2022-09-16T00:36:39.000Z> graf: I will have the installation guide amended since maybe its not included
<2022-09-16T00:37:48.000Z> clairebere: okay one sec
<2022-09-16T00:42:55.000Z> clairebere: okay yes it seems to be working now
<2022-09-16T00:43:01.000Z> clairebere: thank you graf <3
<2022-09-16T00:44:56.000Z> clairebere attached file https://i.poastcdn.org/d9916b5da4f573fedd31a0c55b7b76fe5c0beabad8b91fbba1e58902aa426f1d.png
<2022-09-16T00:45:07.000Z> clairebere: it stopped here and seems to be thinking, hope this is normal
<2022-09-16T00:45:16.000Z> graf: yeah this will take probably 10-15 mins
<2022-09-16T00:45:18.000Z> graf: its expected
<2022-09-16T00:45:35.000Z> clairebere: okay just wanted to check
<2022-09-16T00:47:07.000Z> clairebere: idk how many if any kiwi people will migrate over but I hope this will help ease things for you
<2022-09-16T00:47:22.000Z> clairebere: i know a lot of the older members find the drama stuff annoying on their TL
<2022-09-16T00:47:40.000Z> graf: that makes them plus you and me
<2022-09-16T00:48:39.000Z> clairebere: i know teaclips wanted to move somewhere else so maybe if a few of the larger drama people come over then it will help
<2022-09-16T01:08:34.000Z> clairebere attached file https://i.poastcdn.org/68d2302b7352b6d5044ce8a333243b05078e267596596799eb1cfaf23fb5b916.png
<2022-09-16T01:08:42.000Z> clairebere: do i need to do something to change my server locale?
<2022-09-16T01:10:40.000Z> graf: sudo dpkg-reconfiguremake sure only en_US-UTF8 is selected
<2022-09-16T01:11:05.000Z> graf: then type rebootthen follow from the cd /opt/pleromasudo -Hu pleroma bash
<2022-09-16T01:11:18.000Z> graf: sorry sudo dpkg-reconfigure locale
<2022-09-16T01:11:29.000Z> graf: wait hold on
<2022-09-16T01:11:41.000Z> graf: sudo dpkg-reconfigure locales
<2022-09-16T01:13:53.000Z> graf: sorry ive got a lot going on and my brain is not good rn
<2022-09-16T01:13:46.000Z> graf: you can use the arrow keys to go up and down, select somerthing or deselect it with space
<2022-09-16T01:19:12.000Z> clairebere: no problem got the locale changed
<2022-09-16T01:19:30.000Z> clairebere: i appreciate you helping me with this, my linux is very rusty
<2022-09-16T01:38:18.000Z> clairebere: does the email account for sending notifications need to be a local email account
<2022-09-16T01:38:28.000Z> clairebere: like on the same domain
<2022-09-16T01:38:54.000Z> graf: no you can use a Gmail account even. just look up the smtp settings of Gmail I'd that's what you use 
<2022-09-16T01:39:05.000Z> clairebere: i made a protonmail
<2022-09-16T01:40:08.000Z> clairebere: do you recommend search index on or off
<2022-09-16T01:45:48.000Z> graf: off unless you want your site to show in Google 
<2022-09-16T02:09:46.000Z> clairebere: hmm, install should be done but i'm still getting a nginx message on the live url
<2022-09-16T02:10:05.000Z> clairebere: chudbuds.lol/
<2022-09-16T02:10:41.000Z> clairebere: nevermind, it was adding a www
<2022-09-16T02:11:34.000Z> graf: congratulations you figured it out. it was easy and anyone with some patience can do it, you should help others 
<2022-09-16T02:12:38.000Z> clairebere: yeah i did it between cooking dinner and juggling babies too
<2022-09-16T02:12:58.000Z> clairebere: need to set up a redirect for the www still, looking up how to do that in nginx
<2022-09-16T03:41:29.000Z> clairebere: how do i get the instance to start federating
<2022-09-16T04:27:39.000Z> clairebere: last time I'll bug you tonight, I promise
<2022-09-16T04:28:04.000Z> clairebere: on the dashboard for the instance, if I try to change a setting, for example, number of poll options, or the instance icon
<2022-09-16T04:28:11.000Z> clairebere: i get Request failed with status code 400 - copy
<2022-09-16T04:36:12.000Z> graf: thats a bad request, sounds like something isnt configured right
<2022-09-16T04:36:56.000Z> clairebere: i googled it and found where alex started a thread on pleroma support a year ago about it lol
<2022-09-16T04:37:00.000Z> clairebere: but nobody answered
<2022-09-16T04:37:30.000Z> graf: can you link me? i can probably resolve it if i know the trace which alex probably posted
<2022-09-16T04:37:45.000Z> clairebere: git.pleroma.social/pleroma/admin-fe/-/issues/175
<2022-09-16T04:38:59.000Z> graf: what page are you trying to save on, just instance?
<2022-09-16T04:39:07.000Z> clairebere: yeah 
<2022-09-16T04:39:13.000Z> clairebere: i haven't tried saving on a different page
<2022-09-16T04:39:15.000Z> graf: do any other pages save properly?
<2022-09-16T04:39:20.000Z> graf: can you try?
<2022-09-16T04:39:22.000Z> clairebere: one sec 
<2022-09-16T04:39:58.000Z> clairebere: other pages work
<2022-09-16T04:41:31.000Z> graf: OK I think this is related to your instance configuration thenif you trust me to know the salt of your database (only valueable if i have access to a backup of it) can you send me your config? there may be a missing comma or quote markyou can do this by sudo curl --upload-file /opt/pleroma/prod.secret.exs transfer.sh/prod.secret.exsif you dont want to, thats okay too -- look through that file to see if there are any irregularities 
<2022-09-16T04:42:04.000Z> clairebere: yes i trust you one sec let me ssh back in
<2022-09-16T04:42:30.000Z> graf: that will give you a link to a url with the file that i can view 
<2022-09-16T04:44:07.000Z> clairebere: curl: Can't open '/opt/pleroma/prod.secret.exs'
<2022-09-16T04:44:18.000Z> graf: oh sorry
<2022-09-16T04:44:32.000Z> graf: udo curl --upload-file /opt/pleroma/config/prod.secret.exs transfer.sh/prod.secret.exs
<2022-09-16T04:44:35.000Z> graf: my brain is mush all night
<2022-09-16T04:44:39.000Z> graf: sudo not udo
<2022-09-16T04:45:29.000Z> clairebere: okay it ran
<2022-09-16T04:47:36.000Z> graf: did it give you a url
<2022-09-16T04:47:47.000Z> graf: it would look like "https://transfer.sh/fsdjf90/prod.secret.exs"
<2022-09-16T04:49:19.000Z> clairebere attached file https://i.poastcdn.org/c2d997316c11445ad6666e5dfbcc3775af7d85a37dcaf9b17b35fb7a80a00ea7.png
<2022-09-16T04:49:45.000Z> graf: sorry put https:// before transfer.sh for some reason the message striedpd it out
<2022-09-16T04:49:48.000Z> graf: stripped*
<2022-09-16T04:51:51.000Z> clairebere: transfer.sh/rKoQbf/prod.secret.exs
<2022-09-16T04:52:03.000Z> graf: one moment
<2022-09-16T04:54:13.000Z> graf: looks OK to me I thinkgo here: chudbuds.lol/pleroma/admin/#/settings/loggerdo this 
<2022-09-16T04:54:27.000Z> graf: and then while logged into console do sudo journalctl -fu pleroma https://i.poastcdn.org/ff33baa2ff07efaec2482e25406c117a8882b507817b5a8daa3f464ab7443f5d.png
<2022-09-16T04:54:53.000Z> graf: when you have that window open and ran that command try to save something on that page and send me a screenshot with the result please
<2022-09-16T04:55:16.000Z> clairebere: should i submit the change on logger page before the console command
<2022-09-16T04:55:34.000Z> graf: no
<2022-09-16T04:55:38.000Z> graf: run the console command first
<2022-09-16T04:55:44.000Z> graf: the idea is to see if there is any error from trying to save
<2022-09-16T04:56:57.000Z> clairebere: command is taking a bit to run
<2022-09-16T04:57:56.000Z> graf: on the same page make sure it's set to syslogger https://i.poastcdn.org/336c5fb7697ca0d856957120fac4eeeea009f85dc3e48e27d29a8c9d308a28f3.png
<2022-09-16T04:58:03.000Z> graf: if not, set it. it may ask you to restart the instance 
<2022-09-16T04:58:46.000Z> clairebere: ok, sudo command still running
<2022-09-16T04:59:32.000Z> graf: thats weird, sudo systemctl restart pleroma && sudo journalctl -fu pleroma
<2022-09-16T04:59:59.000Z> clairebere attached file https://i.poastcdn.org/1e1e5952f04a5890809377c51e631a38319563da02bbabdd882aacb8afb302e4.png
<2022-09-16T05:00:02.000Z> clairebere: this is what it was doing
<2022-09-16T05:01:54.000Z> graf: hmm
<2022-09-16T05:02:12.000Z> graf: give me a few minutes to think about it -- you should be seeing errors. for example this 
<2022-09-16T05:02:22.000Z> graf: this is an example fropm the instance i use to test changes to soapbox/poast https://i.poastcdn.org/00237454afc4ac2a0c5b89e0ebdbaa7ec56ea993a8e224b504ecb30deb9be470.png
<2022-09-16T05:14:14.000Z> clairebere: yeah no it's just running and running
<2022-09-16T05:15:12.000Z> clairebere: it looks like it's fetching posts
<2022-09-16T05:16:01.000Z> clairebere: i'm going to close the console
<2022-09-16T05:16:23.000Z> graf: thats fine, leave this with me tonight i will try to replicate it and ask alex if he made progress with it
<2022-09-16T05:16:25.000Z> graf: sorry !
<2022-09-16T05:17:14.000Z> clairebere: no worries
<2022-09-16T05:17:23.000Z> clairebere: i appreciate all the help
<2022-09-16T14:19:29.000Z> clairebere: Hear anything from Alex?
<2022-09-16T14:30:24.000Z> graf: he's in Texas so I'm not sure he's awake yet but I poked him again 
<2022-09-16T14:32:39.000Z> graf: oops looks like he's awake 
<2022-09-16T14:33:31.000Z> clairebere: No hurry I will be on and off dealing with babies
<2022-09-16T14:33:42.000Z> clairebere: We have two under 2 years old 
<2022-09-16T15:02:13.000Z> graf attached file https://i.poastcdn.org/72eae71265e959688d55edb6ffbaac3fb2c41633a3f099d1445f9b701ac5f186.png
<2022-09-16T15:03:20.000Z> clairebere: Hmm, so the icon settings in the backend
<2022-09-16T15:03:36.000Z> clairebere: I'm assuming that sets the favicon
<2022-09-16T15:03:52.000Z> clairebere: And the icon next to posts in the TL
<2022-09-16T15:04:19.000Z> clairebere: Cause I changed that last night to chud face but it still shows the default soapbox icon
<2022-09-16T15:08:59.000Z> graf: you should change the one in the front end and also the favicon. I can't recall which one the timeline uses, but you need favicon.png and favicon.ico in the same folder, I can't recall which at the moment but when I get out of bed I will find it for you 
<2022-09-16T15:17:50.000Z> clairebere: Again no hurry, I don't want to be a pest 
<2022-09-16T15:18:33.000Z> clairebere: Does it take some time for the fediverse tab to become faster
<2022-09-16T15:19:45.000Z> clairebere: It seems some that I can see on poast j can't on chudbuds yet, also the posts from different instances aren't always real time, I'm seeing stuff an hour old from one instance and then stuff only a couple minutes old from another right after that
<2022-09-16T15:19:45.000Z> graf: it will get faster the more servers you find. it's taken a year and a half for poast to find like 9000 servers with our active userbase. following the relay helps
<2022-09-16T15:21:02.000Z> clairebere: What triggers a new federation link? Following or replying to a post on an jnstance?
<2022-09-16T15:38:05.000Z> graf: yes
<2022-09-16T15:38:08.000Z> graf: interacting causes federation
<2022-09-16T15:38:13.000Z> graf: thats why i was trying to force it
<2022-09-16T15:38:24.000Z> graf: poasts federation is so high because there's so many users
<2022-09-16T15:38:48.000Z> clairebere: Is there a benefit to adding more relays?
<2022-09-16T15:40:49.000Z> graf: yes and no, its good to start initial federation but it will cause ghost reposts (showing a repost when there isnt one, multiplied by howevr many relays you are following)
<2022-09-16T15:40:58.000Z> graf: if yuou dont care about that then not really no
<2022-09-16T15:42:39.000Z> clairebere: Okay so if I interact with someone's post on a server, will our fediverse tab begin showing all posts from that servers users or just the person I interact with
<2022-09-16T15:43:05.000Z> graf: it will start with the user and pull in more users as they post. its not instant. this will take time and you have to be patient
<2022-09-16T15:45:46.000Z> clairebere: Okay no problem, just trying to understand the process 
<2022-09-16T15:47:11.000Z> clairebere: I got the 80GB SSD package from buyVM, should that be sufficient to handle say 100 users or less?
<2022-09-16T15:48:50.000Z> graf: yes but you can add storage slabs for cheap and just move media to it
<2022-09-16T15:50:13.000Z> clairebere: Only local users posts use up storage?
<2022-09-16T15:56:54.000Z> graf: no, your server will store federated statuses for an amount of time you set. i think the default is 7 days -- this is to make the experience faster for your users
<2022-09-16T15:56:59.000Z> graf: you can turn that down or turn it off altogether
<2022-09-16T16:25:15.000Z> clairebere: okay cool
<2022-09-16T16:37:51.000Z> clairebere: do you have a list somewhere of the servers you've blocked
<2022-09-16T16:40:00.000Z> graf: poa.st/about 
<2022-09-16T17:11:12.000Z> clairebere attached file https://i.poastcdn.org/a513f7556c05171fd6f1187793d707ef2e8e1ad81cca4fd8b183373a56b82d55.png
<2022-09-16T17:11:29.000Z> clairebere: this is where i've uploaded the thumbnail for what i assume is the tiny icons in the TL
<2022-09-16T17:11:38.000Z> clairebere: but it still is showing the default
<2022-09-16T17:14:21.000Z> graf: it might be due to caching. I remember when we first set ours up when it was an option, it wasn't visible for several hours. if it's not by later today we can look at trying to flush it 
<2022-09-16T17:26:00.000Z> clairebere: okay
<2022-09-16T17:26:10.000Z> clairebere: you're very helpful i appreciate it a lot :)
<2022-09-16T19:02:53.000Z> clairebere attached file https://i.poastcdn.org/fb784fb47e57d8987a6f27e894cafa48357cedc672f4276189d01faa2202d6ee.png
<2022-09-16T19:03:13.000Z> clairebere: is it a problem this is enabled? i didn't enable it, it was already enabled when I came to this page of settings
<2022-09-16T20:01:06.000Z> graf: you have nginx in front of pleroma. in this situation, nginx is running as a reverse proxy for pleroma's phoenix server. so default for an nginx install is to have that enabled.  if you use cloudflare or a similar service, you would add cloudflares ips in the "proxies" field, this would allow your instance to fetch real_ip from headers for ratelimiting users, signups etc
<2022-09-17T04:09:10.000Z> clairebere: Ok
<2022-09-18T03:16:32.000Z> clairebere: I haven't been home most of today but I noticed that some of the folks that moved over to chudbuds have been banting or talking a bit of shit about poast. I just wanted to make sure you knew this doesn't reflect my opinion at all and I have nothing but goodwill towards you. 
<2022-09-18T03:17:10.000Z> graf: i dont care, block and mute. nobody that's on poast or used poast really cares anyway, it's all about ""bants"" and i get that. i just dont care to see it. good luck with your instance
<2022-09-18T03:17:48.000Z> clairebere: I didn't set it up to be an "anti-poast" instance or anything, but it seems to have attracted one or two people who have a grudge 
<2022-09-18T03:18:56.000Z> clairebere: I just wanted it to be a place for people to have fun and be able to talk about lolcows or drama without annoying an established userbase
<2022-09-18T03:19:39.000Z> graf: yeah. the unfortunate part is the ones who dont like us will shit your instance up in that way. so again, i wish you the best. if you have any other issues ill try to make time but i dont really have much anymore
<2022-09-18T03:21:05.000Z> clairebere: I totally understand the demands on your time and I appreciate everything you've done to help me get things going and troubleshoot
<2022-09-18T09:37:55.000Z> clairebere: I hope you saw my reply to that pony panda person 
<2022-09-18T09:39:24.000Z> graf: he's my friend. the user on your instance is the one starting shit but it doesnt matter. im done with all of it
<2022-09-18T09:44:00.000Z> clairebere: Well I just want you to know I'm sincerely sorry that me creating an instance is causing you any additional grief. That is exactly the opposite of my intent, which was to try to ease some burden on you by making a place where e celeb drama wouldn't annoy anyone
<2022-11-05T20:40:28.000Z> clairebere attached file https://i.poastcdn.org/df63abb949de2052b165b6667cf239e789cea0d47f8c4932ba2418028880899a.png

<2022-11-05T20:43:11.000Z> clairebere: already ran the certbot command
<2022-11-05T20:43:26.000Z> graf: is it complete?
<2022-11-05T20:43:36.000Z> clairebere: "cleaning up challenges"
<2022-11-05T20:43:59.000Z> clairebere: it is complete
<2022-11-05T20:44:09.000Z> clairebere: do i need to do the stuff you just sent in the other chat window
<2022-11-05T20:44:19.000Z> graf: yes
<2022-11-05T20:44:31.000Z> clairebere: ok from the pleroma-fe directory?
<2022-11-05T20:44:40.000Z> graf: sudo wget pastebin.com/raw/a20t9Kf8 -O /etc/nginx/sites-available/pl.chudbuds.lol.conf look at the config make sure it says chudbuds where it should or whatever thensudo ln -s /etc/nginx/sites-available/pl.chudbuds.lol.conf /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/pl.chudbuds.lol.conf
<2022-11-05T20:44:46.000Z> graf: this is independent of directory, this will work anywhere
<2022-11-05T20:44:50.000Z> clairebere: ok
<2022-11-05T20:45:52.000Z> graf: while you're there, you might want to copy your favicon.png and favicon.ico from wherever you have them stored for soapbox and put them in /opt/pleroma-fe/dist/
<2022-11-05T20:46:26.000Z> clairebere: okay did those two commands
<2022-11-05T20:46:31.000Z> clairebere: pastebin looked good
<2022-11-05T20:46:37.000Z> graf: so run sudo nginx -t 
<2022-11-05T20:46:40.000Z> graf: this will test your config
<2022-11-05T20:46:44.000Z> graf: and give you any errors
<2022-11-05T20:47:00.000Z> clairebere: no errors
<2022-11-05T20:47:10.000Z> graf: okay you can run nginx -s reload (or systemctl reload nginx)
<2022-11-05T20:47:32.000Z> clairebere: done
<2022-11-05T20:47:41.000Z> graf: pl.chudbuds.lol/main/all
<2022-11-05T20:47:42.000Z> graf: congrats
<2022-11-05T20:47:52.000Z> graf: oops
<2022-11-05T20:47:55.000Z> graf: pl.chudbuds.lo,.
<2022-11-05T20:48:00.000Z> graf: pl.chudbuds.lol
<2022-11-05T20:48:02.000Z> graf: sorry fucking keyboard
<2022-11-05T20:48:13.000Z> graf: there's an issue with copy/pasting URLS i will fix when I have a chance, its related to the config
<2022-11-05T20:48:16.000Z> graf: otherwise everything else shoudl work
<2022-11-05T20:49:05.000Z> clairebere: woot
<2022-11-05T20:52:22.000Z> clairebere: thank you so much
<2022-11-05T20:52:48.000Z> clairebere: what is the issue with pasting urls? so i can answer questions if anyone asks
<2022-11-05T20:54:30.000Z> graf: its just the way the backend handles them, alex has changed the way url slugs are handled in soapbox. pleroma tries to fetch /main/all and some others that dont have routes that exist in the backend
<2022-11-05T20:54:38.000Z> graf: i will have to rewrite how its done with nginx unless alex fixes it
<2022-11-05T20:54:41.000Z> graf: but i will talk with him about it first
<2022-11-05T20:54:55.000Z> clairebere: ah okay
<2022-11-05T20:55:14.000Z> clairebere: that was much easier than I expected
<2022-11-05T20:55:42.000Z> clairebere: i'm starting to get a little more of a handle on CLI
<2022-11-05T20:56:01.000Z> graf: yeah I had already ironed out most of the kinks in our pleroma config so I just ctrl+f pl.poa.st and replaced with pl.chudbuds.lol
<2022-11-05T20:56:05.000Z> graf: it was just remembering how to build it
<2022-11-05T20:56:10.000Z> graf: I should have told you about npm that was my bad
<2022-11-05T20:56:31.000Z> clairebere: not a problem!
<2022-11-05T20:56:55.000Z> clairebere: at some point I'll want to learn how to do our own soapbox build instead of the release version
<2022-11-05T20:57:49.000Z> graf: its more or less the same thing actually
<2022-11-05T20:58:56.000Z> clairebere: but I will be able to do UI customizations with our own build, correct?
<2022-11-05T20:59:13.000Z> graf: yes
<2022-11-05T20:59:21.000Z> graf: you will need to learn tailwind css for that
<2022-11-05T20:59:27.000Z> graf: (or just fake it til you make it like most do)
<2022-11-05T21:00:01.000Z> clairebere: I know bootstrap, will look into tailwind
<2022-11-05T21:00:43.000Z> graf: when I get around to either rewriting the config or fixing routes in rebased ill let you know
<2022-11-05T21:00:57.000Z> graf: its low priority since it doesnt effect users browsing at all but i will bump it since someone else relies on it now
<2022-11-05T21:01:12.000Z> clairebere: okay :) is there a separate admin panel url for my pl.chudbuds 
<2022-11-05T21:01:41.000Z> graf: no just click this 
<2022-11-05T21:01:43.000Z> graf attached file https://i.poastcdn.org/d7f5435c3a3b91802eb757889d2f79cb61de83e7437cb2488b373fba01a7f28a.png
<2022-11-05T21:02:42.000Z> clairebere: okay so MRF, emojis, all that stuff are shared between the two front ends
<2022-11-05T21:02:48.000Z> clairebere: i don't have to set them in both places
<2022-11-05T21:03:13.000Z> clairebere: cool that makes it easier
<2022-11-05T21:03:17.000Z> graf: yes
<2022-11-05T21:04:16.000Z> clairebere: what about theme-ing it
<2022-11-05T21:04:59.000Z> graf: any user can do that in preferences

<2022-11-05T21:06:00.000Z> clairebere: awesome
<2022-11-05T21:18:20.000Z> clairebere: Got some reports that " It breaks every time I refresh though and sometimes it throws an nginx error."
<2022-11-05T21:19:02.000Z> graf: yeah, they shouldnt have to refresh. it does it on its own
<2022-11-05T21:19:10.000Z> graf: refreshing is that /main/all bug
<2022-11-05T21:19:21.000Z> graf: thats kind of why i warned you about it 
<2022-11-05T21:19:21.000Z> graf: lol
<2022-11-05T21:19:27.000Z> clairebere: okay gotcha
<2022-11-05T21:19:47.000Z> graf: pleroma has a button on the top of all timelines that counts new posts 
<2022-11-05T21:19:53.000Z> graf: you press that button and receive new posts
<2022-11-05T21:20:04.000Z> graf attached file https://i.poastcdn.org/3ab2ff2acacc567a0bf0f7a0a43ef32d21f350fa4076138ce8e195c54e0eb22d.png
<2022-11-05T21:20:08.000Z> graf: there is 0 need to refresh anything
<2022-11-05T21:20:33.000Z> clairebere: right
<2022-11-05T21:20:40.000Z> clairebere: that's what I was about to tell them
<2022-11-05T21:22:06.000Z> graf: ill try to find time to work on it this weekend
<2022-11-05T21:33:07.000Z> clairebere: no worries!
<2022-11-05T21:33:12.000Z> clairebere: thanks again for your help
<2022-11-21T05:34:43.000Z> clairebere: Hey there, what do you have your hellthread settings set to? Or how were you able to look up our settings earlier and I can just use that method to check?
<2022-11-21T05:36:40.000Z> graf: 15 and 25 because it jammed up our database far too many times chudbuds.lol/api/v1/instance every instance that runs pleroma has this, it's settings your instance publishes to other servers. just change the domain name to see any others 
<2022-11-21T05:41:58.000Z> clairebere: Okay I'm feeding baby but will make the change afterwards. Should I do a reset afterwards? Would increasing the number of workers help as well? I have just left those on the default.
<2022-11-21T06:11:04.000Z> graf: I'm not sure what to suggest to you as far as what to set it as. I am going to increase ours probably tomorrow to 20/30 but I won't go higher then that. 30 people tagged in a thread is *a lot* and a lot of notifications and a lot of external fetching. you shouldn't have to reset, no. increasing workers for incoming and outgoing federation is fine if your hardware can support it. if it doesn't and your connections aren't tuned (enough database connections for example) you will slow or completely stop federation so I wouldn't suggest that as a troubleshooting technique, no 
<2022-11-21T06:11:44.000Z> clairebere: okay changed our hellthread settings to 15 and 25
<2022-11-21T06:12:47.000Z> clairebere: let me know if that helps clear up the issue with jim's account or if there's anything else on my end I can do to assist
<2022-11-21T06:14:47.000Z> graf: alright thanks 
<2022-11-25T17:24:40.000Z> clairebere: hey wanted to check in on this issue with Jim's account and see if you have any more info or ideas on what is causing it
<2022-11-25T17:24:52.000Z> clairebere: I saw one of his posts federated over here yesterday but that's it
<2022-11-26T01:05:56.000Z> graf: didnt see this until now, ill look later tonight again to see if i can see anything going on
<2022-11-26T03:06:39.000Z> clairebere: okay thank you
<2022-11-26T03:07:17.000Z> clairebere: I've updated us to the latest soapbox release today but i haven't made any other changes since i set our hellthread policy to 15 and 25 the other day
<2022-11-26T03:07:31.000Z> graf: this wouldnt be soapbox it would be the backend doing it
<2022-11-26T03:07:38.000Z> graf: what rebased version r u using
<2022-11-26T03:08:10.000Z> clairebere: is there a place in admin-fe to see the version?
<2022-11-26T03:08:27.000Z> graf: you can see it at chudbuds.lol/admin
<2022-11-26T03:08:35.000Z> graf: bottom of the modal should give you all the versions
<2022-11-26T03:09:00.000Z> clairebere: Soapbox 3.0.0-a0e1e02Pleroma+soapbox 2.4.52-1751-gc6e4a123.develop
<2022-11-26T03:09:38.000Z> graf: yeah you're a couple changes behind, i wonder if that would help
<2022-11-26T03:10:16.000Z> graf: sudo -Hu pleroma bashthen runcd /opt/pleromagit pullmix deps.getmix deps.compileMIX_ENV=prod mix compileMIX_ENV=prod mix ecto.migrate
<2022-11-26T03:11:20.000Z> clairebere: okay give me a few i have a poopy diaper to change
<2022-11-26T03:16:58.000Z> clairebere: okay back, do I do anything after that to restart pleroma?
<2022-11-26T03:21:07.000Z> clairebere: and how much downtime will this cause while updating?
<2022-11-26T03:21:41.000Z> graf: sudo systemctl restart pleroma && sudo journalctl -fu pleroma (the last after && you dont have to do but it helps to see if there's errors)
<2022-11-26T03:21:47.000Z> graf: downtime shouldnt be much if you did the prior commands first
<2022-11-26T03:22:05.000Z> clairebere: okay I'll give it a shot now while baby is being good
<2022-11-26T03:32:47.000Z> clairebere: it's still doing it's thing, on mix deps.compile right now
<2022-11-26T03:36:12.000Z> graf: roger
<2022-11-26T03:36:32.000Z> clairebere: prod mix compile currently :)

<2022-11-26T03:39:16.000Z> clairebere: is this an issue before i do ecto migrate
<2022-11-26T03:39:41.000Z> graf: yeah you will have to compile it manually then redo the last mix task
<2022-11-26T03:39:53.000Z> graf: mix deps.compile phoenix_live_dashboard
<2022-11-26T03:40:36.000Z> clairebere: got it
<2022-11-26T03:43:45.000Z> clairebere: doing ecto migrate now
<2022-11-26T03:44:19.000Z> graf: shouldnt be much if anything at all
<2022-11-26T03:44:19.000Z> clairebere: seems to be okay let me restart

<2022-11-26T03:54:01.000Z> clairebere: i still have the journal open
<2022-11-26T03:54:19.000Z> clairebere: seen this error a couple of times
<2022-11-26T03:54:22.000Z> graf: you can close it unless you see a bunch of errors (ctrl+c)

<2022-11-26T03:54:40.000Z> graf: yeah thats someone sending the wrong error code to your server thinking they're funnyu
<2022-11-26T03:54:47.000Z> graf: that wont bother you at all
<2022-11-26T03:55:02.000Z> clairebere: okay i was going to say it looks related to a file on a cdn 
<2022-11-26T03:55:23.000Z> clairebere: do you have a way to try to manually fetch a jim post?
<2022-11-26T03:55:32.000Z> clairebere: if so would i see any errors related to that in the journal
<2022-11-26T03:55:51.000Z> graf: yeah by adding /ostatus_subscribe?acct=url_to_post to the end of the URL
<2022-11-26T03:55:58.000Z> graf: it seems to be an issue only between you and I
<2022-11-26T03:56:08.000Z> clairebere: I ran iftop earlier this evening during some of our peak traffic and I don't think our bandwidth is saturated
<2022-11-26T03:56:17.000Z> graf: so I think its related to the shared follows between his account on both poast and chudbuds
<2022-11-26T03:56:23.000Z> graf: but I need to have more time to watch it
<2022-11-26T03:56:32.000Z> graf: its not related to bandwidth
<2022-11-26T03:56:54.000Z> graf: I think it's related to background/foreground workers and the notifications bug we had when jim first joined poast
<2022-11-26T03:57:13.000Z> graf: basically what happens is a bunch of people click the bell button on a profile and that adds a notification worker per user that does that
<2022-11-26T03:57:30.000Z> graf: for someone like jim having like 10 thousand people doing that, thats 10 thousand workers and 10 thousand jobs that need to be created every time he makes a post
<2022-11-26T03:57:41.000Z> clairebere: that seems like a horrible way for the bell to work
<2022-11-26T03:57:55.000Z> graf: because poast has so many users and most of jims chudbuds account followers are poast users, your server has to make a job for each of those workers 
<2022-11-26T03:57:58.000Z> graf: yeah it is
<2022-11-26T03:58:15.000Z> graf: I havent had time to look into this but I will do it this weekend for sure
<2022-11-26T03:58:31.000Z> clairebere: that's fine, it's a pretty busy time for everyone
<2022-11-26T03:58:39.000Z> clairebere: I also have been talking to P in DMs
<2022-11-26T03:58:53.000Z> graf: if you dont hear from me by sunday bump this convo but i will try to look into it tomorrow night 
<2022-11-26T03:59:17.000Z> clairebere: I offered to throw a little crypto his way if he will sit in a voice call with me and go through the back end options and help me tune stuff, maybe tune postgres
<2022-11-26T03:59:33.000Z> graf: yeah pete will help you, you should do that for sure
<2022-11-26T03:59:57.000Z> clairebere: even after upgrading to 3 cores this month we are back to hitting 100% CPU during peak times
<2022-11-26T04:01:46.000Z> clairebere: i know that beam.smp looks like it's taking a lot of CPU when it really isn't but there's also a TON of postgres tasks running at all times
<2022-11-26T04:01:54.000Z> graf: im going to be honest with you, you cant run pleroma at scale on a vps very well at all. we learned this within like the first week 
<2022-11-26T04:02:05.000Z> graf: buyvm is fine for like 20-50 people but not like 500+ monthly
<2022-11-26T04:03:05.000Z> clairebere: pete did suggest that maybe I could get a second VM and put postgres on one and pleroma on the other
<2022-11-26T04:03:35.000Z> graf: if you are going to do that it might be time to go with dedicated
<2022-11-26T04:04:02.000Z> clairebere: i'll have to look into the cost on that and grift a bit
<2022-11-26T04:04:47.000Z> graf: im doing deal watch right now
<2022-11-26T04:04:52.000Z> clairebere: right now I've got hosting for the site, a different host for matrix, a 3rd for the blog, and a minecraft server lol
<2022-11-26T04:04:53.000Z> graf: i will pass on the best ones to you as i see them this weekend
<2022-11-26T04:05:13.000Z> graf: yeah poast has like 900$/mo in additional shit we host for people we dont need to and I'm trying to consolodate it

<2022-11-27T03:32:09.000Z> clairebere: fair warning this guy will cause you problems eventually

<2022-11-27T15:56:18.000Z> clairebere: subscriptions definitely are not working as intended
<2022-11-27T15:57:37.000Z> clairebere: this is the first time I've noticed a delay on our end though
<2022-11-27T16:44:08.000Z> clairebere: really weird though, it's just that one post which was delayed, and I just noticed that it's missing the quote tweet context on our end

<2022-11-27T16:46:49.000Z> clairebere: OH nevermind
<2022-11-27T16:47:04.000Z> clairebere: it's cause @txt deleted his post that Jim quoted
<2022-11-27T16:47:30.000Z> clairebere: i feel dumb now lol
<2022-11-27T18:07:47.000Z> graf: yeah we have incoming deletes disabled until the twitter retards fuck off 
<2022-11-27T18:08:24.000Z> graf: they make accounts, make a bunch of posts then delete or delete entire servers which absolutely chews the database because Mastodon fires deletes off one by one when they delete accounts 
<2022-11-27T19:28:53.000Z> clairebere: Got it
<2022-12-07T01:16:13.000Z> clairebere: I've got that database query for removing old notifications pulled up
<2022-12-07T01:16:19.000Z> clairebere: how do i run it
<2022-12-07T01:16:49.000Z> clairebere: I tried going into /opt/pleroma and switching to the pleroma user but obviously i'm missing something in how to tell it to talk to the database
<2022-12-07T01:17:25.000Z> graf: you have to be connected to the database
<2022-12-07T01:17:30.000Z> graf: sudo -Hu postgres psql
<2022-12-07T01:17:32.000Z> graf: \c pleroma;
<2022-12-07T01:17:34.000Z> graf: then run it
<2022-12-07T01:17:49.000Z> graf: but if you arent familiar with postgresql i would absolutley not advise you to do anything to your database because you can irrevocably break it
<2022-12-07T01:18:00.000Z> clairebere: okay i was doing sudo pleroma bash
<2022-12-07T01:18:50.000Z> clairebere: I can run a backup of the database first, correct?
<2022-12-07T01:21:11.000Z> clairebere: also got some reports that people trying to follow poast accounts today it just sits on "waiting approval"
<2022-12-07T01:21:28.000Z> graf: you can sure
<2022-12-07T01:23:42.000Z> graf: what user can not be followed remotely
<2022-12-07T01:24:48.000Z> clairebere: one sec

<2022-12-07T01:25:35.000Z> graf: okay the jim one i can look at. "poast people" doesnt help me
<2022-12-07T01:25:40.000Z> graf: I need actual account names
<2022-12-07T01:26:10.000Z> clairebere: i will ask pliskin
<2022-12-07T01:27:21.000Z> graf: I can follow jim's poast account fine 
<2022-12-07T01:27:31.000Z> graf: did he mark his account as a bot? because the server will NOT let him follow people if he did
<2022-12-07T01:27:58.000Z> graf: sorry I mean I can follow his account from my instance fine
<2022-12-07T01:28:14.000Z> clairebere: No, his account is not marked as a bot
<2022-12-07T01:28:31.000Z> clairebere: and the first person who can't follow Jim isn't the same person, he is also not marked as a bot
<2022-12-07T01:28:58.000Z> clairebere: I'm asking pliskin for account names he was having issues with following back today
<2022-12-07T01:29:08.000Z> clairebere: Will also try following someone on poast from my chudbuds account
<2022-12-07T01:29:24.000Z> clairebere: pleroma=# pg_dumpall pleroma > pleroma.sql
<2022-12-07T01:29:30.000Z> clairebere: is this all I do for a backup?
<2022-12-07T01:29:56.000Z> clairebere: sorry pg_dump, not pg_dumpall
<2022-12-07T01:30:55.000Z> clairebere: okay I was able to follow someone without issue
<2022-12-07T01:31:03.000Z> clairebere: so probably disregard those reports
<2022-12-07T01:31:14.000Z> graf: yeah that'll work. normally i do /usr/bin/sudo -Hu postgres /usr/bin/pg_dump -d pleroma --format=custom -f /var/backups/postgresql/$FILENAME
<2022-12-07T01:31:31.000Z> clairebere: okay so you can specify a directory that way
<2022-12-10T20:09:57.000Z> clairebere attached file https://i.poastcdn.org/c01c219a3eb2108203d93f24c4abe505b5ac1cda9ded79692a683173ed4657f5.png
<2022-12-10T20:10:06.000Z> clairebere: trying to renew our SSL certificate
<2022-12-10T20:10:10.000Z> clairebere: am I doing something wrong?
<2022-12-10T20:16:40.000Z> graf: add location ~ /.well-known/acme-challenge/ {                        root /var/www/letsencrypt/;}to your nginx config under the block that has the ssl config
<2022-12-10T20:17:05.000Z> graf: location ~ /.well-known/acme-challenge/ {root /var/lib/letsencrypt/;}
<2022-12-10T20:17:10.000Z> clairebere: okay one sec. need to stop nginx to change that file correct?
<2022-12-10T20:17:11.000Z> graf: that one ^
<2022-12-10T20:17:25.000Z> graf: you dont need to stop it, no you can add it and then sudo nginx -s reload
<2022-12-10T20:17:38.000Z> graf: also you only need certbot renew
<2022-12-10T20:17:42.000Z> graf: if you already have a cert
<2022-12-10T20:18:46.000Z> clairebere: okay i was just following what was on the soapbox guide for renewing
<2022-12-10T20:18:51.000Z> clairebere: one sec, editing the file
<2022-12-10T20:19:26.000Z> graf: it looks like you should have that location block, if you're using the soapbox config
<2022-12-10T20:19:29.000Z> graf: so look for it and remove the #'s 
<2022-12-10T20:19:37.000Z> clairebere: yeah i'm uncommenting it now
<2022-12-10T20:23:42.000Z> clairebere attached file https://i.poastcdn.org/7a80eeb21a899741af79a38cea7b12aaf497569177b3268984e13af9fa6a179a.png
<2022-12-10T20:25:06.000Z> graf: ah so alex's instructions had you set certbot up for spinning up its own webserver, okaysudo systemctl stop nginx && sudo certbot renew && sudo systemctm start nginx
<2022-12-10T20:25:24.000Z> clairebere: okay
<2022-12-10T20:26:04.000Z> clairebere: perfect that worked
<2022-12-10T20:26:15.000Z> clairebere: do i re-comment that block in the nginx config
<2022-12-10T20:26:38.000Z> graf: no, remind me later this week and ill help you switch from the way you have it now to the proper way where it can renew while the server is running and just reload on its own so you dont have to worry about it
<2022-12-10T20:26:52.000Z> clairebere: okay :)
<2022-12-10T20:27:10.000Z> clairebere: I ran the prune on old seen notifications earlier
<2022-12-10T20:27:24.000Z> clairebere: ~500k of them
<2022-12-10T20:27:49.000Z> clairebere: Jim's status on poast from this morning showed up on chudbuds not long after 
<2022-12-10T20:28:00.000Z> graf: yes i got the email abotu the comment. we cant do the same since we've already removed all seen notifications up to 1 month so there's not much else to remove. i asked alex to look at it but if hes busy ill work on something later tonight
<2022-12-10T20:28:22.000Z> clairebere: what is the flag to make it prune unseen ones as well
<2022-12-10T20:28:43.000Z> clairebere: seen='t' is the seen ones
<2022-12-10T20:28:53.000Z> graf: f
<2022-12-10T20:28:59.000Z> clairebere: okay cool
<2022-12-10T20:29:22.000Z> clairebere: hope you're having a nice weekend 
<2022-12-10T20:30:09.000Z> graf: I had dental surgery last week and after it because I was on tylenol 3 for pain management and it has codeine in it I was tapping my foot nonstop for like 6-7 hours while working so I've had "turf toe" for the whole week resulting in me not being able to use one foot at all and it being swollen like 4x the size 
<2022-12-10T20:30:21.000Z> graf: aleve is helping and i am managin
<2022-12-10T20:30:32.000Z> graf: game 4 today to take my mind off it i think
<2022-12-10T20:31:27.000Z> clairebere: oh god i'm sorry to hear that, I have had oral surgery twice in the last two years, my molars have all fallen apart due to my most recent pregnancies demineralizing them
<2022-12-10T20:31:58.000Z> clairebere: so I've had to have all my wisdom teeth and the ones in front of those removed
<2022-12-10T20:33:31.000Z> clairebere: idk how you do with ibuprofen but when I have pain like that to manage, I usually swap between tylenol and ibuprofen ever 4 hours
<2022-12-10T20:34:05.000Z> graf: oh i was fine after the second day for dental pain, im just taking the tylenol 3 for the foot issue
<2022-12-10T20:34:08.000Z> graf: its like gout but on steroids 
<2022-12-10T20:34:15.000Z> graf: I take aleve twice a day
<2022-12-10T20:34:17.000Z> graf: (for swelling)
<2022-12-10T20:35:19.000Z> clairebere: well i hope you feel better soon
<2022-12-10T20:36:03.000Z> graf: thank yoy
<2022-12-10T20:37:04.000Z> clairebere: i noticed after updating soapbox today that the emoji react container is now getting cut off and not wrapping (we have two rows of reactions) on desktop
<2022-12-10T20:37:17.000Z> clairebere: should i make an issue for it? I looked at the recent issues and don't see one
<2022-12-10T20:37:55.000Z> clairebere attached file https://i.poastcdn.org/11fe0e3c5c285ca043a58d0300ac7246e1ae5d42f1f22253779aa831dca846f4.png
<2022-12-10T20:38:09.000Z> clairebere: it still wraps properly on mobile
<2022-12-10T20:38:25.000Z> clairebere: probably because the viewport size forces it to
<2022-12-10T20:43:01.000Z> graf: yeah I would ask matty, nicecrew's admin first since he has done something similar. i dont know that anything merged recently would have caused that issue
<2022-12-10T20:45:26.000Z> clairebere: okay i will ask him
<2022-12-10T20:46:33.000Z> clairebere: it almost looks like the react container is being constrained by the div of the post itself
<2022-12-10T20:46:41.000Z> clairebere: instead of floating as it's own thing
<2022-12-10T21:46:34.000Z> clairebere: so I just updated pleroma, getting a lot of these warnings in the journal now
<2022-12-10T21:46:39.000Z> clairebere attached file https://i.poastcdn.org/b1f5ac233bc9fb9d1cfefa45767bedcbb82589c7564b56752d95c544385476ff.png
<2022-12-11T01:46:57.000Z> graf: I would make an issue about that, its related to the outgoing federation worker and might have something to do with our issue
<2022-12-11T02:12:21.000Z> clairebere: Okay, I can't be positive when it started, but I didn't see it after the last update you helped me do a couple weeks ago
<2022-12-11T02:13:13.000Z> clairebere: Should I add it as a comment on the existing issue for that?
<2022-12-11T02:14:19.000Z> graf: did you run MIX_ENV=prod mix ecto.migrate
<2022-12-11T02:14:19.000Z> graf: ?

<2022-12-11T02:18:45.000Z> graf: you're behind a couple versions, i wonder what branch we are on
<2022-12-11T02:19:14.000Z> clairebere: I ran the update today, that's strange
<2022-12-11T02:19:38.000Z> clairebere: Shouldn't it have pulled the most recent version
<2022-12-11T02:21:53.000Z> graf: its weird, we are on Pleroma 2.4.53-2068-g8c7bdf1d.develop+soapboxwhich is this commitgitlab.com/soapbox-pub/rebased/-/commit/8c7bdf1dbb4c40f5b734951ac20800e69f9748ffyou are on 13c61e59, from november 23rd. this commit:13c61e59

<2022-12-11T02:26:50.000Z> clairebere: One sec let me go look at something 
<2022-12-11T02:28:59.000Z> clairebere: Pleroma didn't update, or something. This screenshot is from the last time I updated https://i.poastcdn.org/93420360a858aa1c61c0f30f2feea3a5b0c5579446d044173986290454392d50.png
<2022-12-11T02:29:36.000Z> clairebere: I ran the steps exactly the same as last time. Did not get any errors when compiling 
<2022-12-11T02:32:14.000Z> clairebere: let me try it again
<2022-12-11T02:32:25.000Z> graf: according to your /api/v1/instance endpoint you're on the current one. looks like your browser cached old data Pleroma 2.4.53-2082-gf435f364.develop+soapbox
<2022-12-11T02:33:13.000Z> clairebere: yeah i just now see that git pull says we are up to date
<2022-12-11T02:33:36.000Z> clairebere: version was cached on the dashboard
<2022-12-11T02:33:42.000Z> clairebere: did a hard refresh and it changed
<2022-12-11T02:33:54.000Z> clairebere: Pleroma+soapbox 2.4.53-2082-gf435f364.develop
<2022-12-11T02:34:12.000Z> graf: yeah, so we are behind you so you might want to definitely open an issue because its not something we have currently
<2022-12-11T02:34:18.000Z> graf: maybe attach it to mine for now
<2022-12-11T02:34:21.000Z> clairebere: okay
<2022-12-11T02:35:21.000Z> clairebere: how do you change back to root from pleroma user
<2022-12-11T02:35:40.000Z> graf: you can just use "exit"
<2022-12-11T02:36:06.000Z> clairebere: okay
<2022-12-11T02:38:42.000Z> clairebere: added a comment with screenshots from the journal
<2022-12-11T02:39:06.000Z> graf: thank you
<2022-12-11T02:46:55.000Z> clairebere: no problem
<2022-12-11T04:15:47.000Z> clairebere: how do you pull remote packs of emoji from another instance
<2022-12-11T04:16:17.000Z> clairebere: i tried putting poa.st/ in the remote instance address box on Admin FE
<2022-12-11T04:16:22.000Z> clairebere: as a test
<2022-12-11T04:16:25.000Z> clairebere: and it doesn't pull anything

<2022-12-11T04:16:51.000Z> graf: we don't have any packs. it's just all tossed in the custom folder. that's probably why 
<2022-12-11T04:16:58.000Z> clairebere: ah okay
<2022-12-11T04:17:25.000Z> clairebere: yep that's why
<2022-12-11T04:17:36.000Z> clairebere: glad to know i wasn't doing it wrong lol
<2022-12-11T04:19:21.000Z> graf: when we set poast up we just scraped emojis from the top instances and it was like 5000 and too much to sort through making packs. I'd like to spend time to sort through them to remove duplicates tho might do that soon 
<2022-12-29T22:17:13.000Z> clairebere: chudbuds.lol/@chudbere/posts/AR71B0eo0lSLlLGXDc

<2022-12-29T22:18:37.000Z> clairebere: I also messaged milk to warn him
<2022-12-29T22:21:23.000Z> graf: okay

<2023-02-05T08:38:22.000Z> clairebere: I'm wondering if their whole network is under attack or just had a major failure
<2023-02-05T21:16:25.000Z> graf: i think you are in LV datacenter, we have one machine there and the monitor never went off so i dont think it went offline. might have been the machine you were on
<2023-03-06T04:42:49.000Z> clairebere: hey are you there
<2023-03-06T04:42:57.000Z> graf: yes
<2023-03-06T04:43:41.000Z> clairebere: idk what's happening but it looks like my actual physical computer was hacked
<2023-03-06T04:43:55.000Z> graf: your entire instance database is online
<2023-03-06T04:44:03.000Z> clairebere: so is my tax records
<2023-03-06T04:46:06.000Z> clairebere: i don't even know what to do
<2023-03-06T04:46:35.000Z> graf: i mean there isnt much you can do. your entire database is available online, i presume also the salts used for hashing user info including passwords as well
<2023-03-06T05:05:54.000Z> clairebere: who do you think could have done this?
<2023-03-06T05:06:57.000Z> graf: if you were 'hacked' it could be literally anyone. you'd need a RAT or keylogger installed on your pc. did you install something recently? could be someone involved in your staff, do you have them rotate passwords often? 
<2023-03-06T05:07:28.000Z> clairebere: curseforge
<2023-03-06T05:07:47.000Z> clairebere: last thing i installed for a minecraft mod pack
<2023-03-06T05:09:23.000Z> graf: did someone send you a link to it?
<2023-03-06T05:44:53.000Z> clairebere: no
<2023-03-06T05:48:39.000Z> graf: well someone had to have sent you something to gain access to your home pc
<2023-03-06T05:50:21.000Z> clairebere: I'm in shell shock I'm not sure what it could have been. 
<2023-03-06T05:51:02.000Z> graf: alright well step 1 is to disconnect your pc from the internet and not use it until you are certain the RAT or whatever it was has been removed, if that was your issue
<2023-03-06T05:52:47.000Z> clairebere: Yeah its disconnected. I'm writing a statement now to put on twitter and poast. 
<2023-03-06T05:53:20.000Z> graf: trollcow followed me 1 hour before it happened and she liked me responding to jim about it after being idle for several weeks 
<2023-03-06T05:53:29.000Z> graf: i already remarked this to poast jannies but it might be related
<2023-03-06T05:53:44.000Z> clairebere: She was in my chat tonight too
<2023-03-06T05:55:44.000Z> clairebere: you liked my html didn't you, pedo
