Are there any Discord servers or somewhere in the Matrix to chat about hosting a Lemmy instance? I’ve got Lemmy running, but I think there are several of us in the same boat struggling with federation performance issues and it might be good to have some place to chat real time.
Quick skim through the commits on the master branch, I don’t see many changes pertaining to federation. This one looks interesting/related, but I think in itself only tells server admins when to increase worker counts: https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/commit/25275b79eed0fb1fe90d27c197725f510f9965bb
Don’t know if they changed it or not-
But, I am busy making a few kubernetes manifests for deploying lemmy- and I am noticing a ton of extra debugging / logging that doesn’t need to be there for production use.
Seriously doubt it’s going to fix the issue- but, reducing some of the debugging enabled by default, wouldn’t hurt.
100% with you. A lot of the current deployment are very development centric… Let’s pretend the default
docker-compose.ymlisn’t opening up the postgres DB to the internet with a generic password…The pace the entire system must mature to enable the platform to handle the hopeful upcoming growth is… interesting, to say the least…
Well, if I can knock out a decent helm chart for these manifests, it might actually help a bit-
Most of the components can scale quite easily on k8s. The only piece I am unsure of currently, is lemmy itself.
The lemmy-ui scales. Appears mostly stateless. pictrs scales. postgres scales.
Perhaps- https://github.com/LemmyNet/activitypub-federation-rust is the place we need to be focused on.
Perhaps… The main branch commits doesn’t have much either at this time either though: https://github.com/LemmyNet/activitypub-federation-rust/commits/main
So- poking around a bit tonight, and I did find this in the main lemmy repo.

Interesting, as it actually appears to be a testing setup for testing federation.
