I get pinged quite frequently about all skyfeed feeds having issues, but then I go online, check a few feeds and everything seems to be fine. however despite this being the case, there has been a concerning amount of pings the past few days, so I assume that maybe one of the servers is broken. [1/2]

It would be nice if IPv6 used underscores instead of colons for separating groups. __1:5050 is so much nicer than [::1]:5050 imo and you would be able to double-click to select a long address in most places!

The #WHY2025 AT Protocol and Bluesky Meetup is TODAY at 15:00! We will meet at this location: map.why2025.org#m=52.6925197... I will be holding a Plushtodon, so you can use that to recognize me. If you can't find us, send me a Bluesky DM 🦋 See you later!

Hey, if you're at #WHY2025, I'm organizing a little AT Protocol & Bluesky Meetup 🦋 It doesn't matter if you're already building something on AT Proto, are just a user interested in how everything works under the hood or simply want to talk about decentralized social media, everyone's welcome!

Made a feed for #WHY2025, see you there! bsky.app/profile/did:...

anyone here going to #WHY2025 ?

can anyone load 🫟.st ?

latest canvas is now always pinned on @placebot.pds.amsel.dev's profile

we made a r/place-style game to try out our small Rust-based bluesky bot framework we've been working on ~ go place some pixels, we need load testing :P

Ethersync enables real-time collaborative editing of local text files. You can use it for pair programming or note-taking, for example. It's the missing real-time complement to Git! github.com/ethersync/et...

which terminal emulators do y'all use on your system?

appviewappviewappview - after 6 months, I'm running what is, afaik, the first full-network bluesky appview - you can use it at zeppelin.social, query it at bsky.zeppelin.social, read about it at whtwnd.com/futur.blue/3..., & help me keep it up for more than a few weeks at github.com/sponsors/fut...

skyfeed servers are currently down, sorry about that. trying to get everything back online asap

Hey SkyFeed users, fly.io is currently having a "Major Outage" in the IAD region where the skyfeed cache infrastructure is hosted: status.flyio.net As a result, all skyfeed feeds are currently down until fly.io is back online, very sorry about that.

I've been trying to get the infra back online for the last 30 minutes and looks like it's recovering now. I deployed a new version of the query-engine yesterday and it looks like it got extremely slow after starting to use swap mem, which resulted in very long timeouts and as a result, broken feeds.

Good Morning, just woke up. I'm sure nothing bad happened during the night

The SkyFeed Discover feed is now finally back online! Feel free to try it and let me know if it shows you relevant results: bsky.app/profile/did:... If it's empty, you might need to like some posts first because it only uses your recent likes as input.

Very sorry about yet another SkyFeed downtime, feeds should be recovering now. Took a while to notice because it's 5 AM over here.

About 45 minutes ago, quite a lot of SkyFeed feeds went down. Sorry about that, all of them should be back online now! Read below for a more detailed explanation of what caused this:

SkyFeed is having issues atm, I'm trying to get everything back online asap!

Would anyone be interested in a Bluesky (dev) meetup at the #38C3?

Made a feed for #38C3 👾 See you at congress! bsky.app/profile/did:...

This took a while, but all SkyFeed feeds should now be back online! After fly.io resolved their incident, their API was still returning inconsistent responses. For ~50% of requests, it said that my app doesn't exist :D So I gradually re-deployed all containers by hand and now it seems to be healthy

I'm sorry for the current SkyFeed outage, I'm pretty sure it's caused by @fly.io which I use for smart caching of feeds. It usually works great. See https://status.flyio.net/ for status

I've been getting reports of some posts not being indexed by SkyFeed correctly. I suspect that this is caused by my indexer being overloaded and the firehose stream being a bit wonky. So I'm currently in the process of rewriting the indexer in Rust with a self-hosted jetstream instance and relay2

we did it! 🥳

I'm looking for a UI designer for the web version of my open-source project vup.app (decentralized e2e-encrypted file hosting service) I prefer EU-based designers who have a VAT identification number, but if I like your existing work this is optional. If you're interested, please send me a DM :)

Thank you for bearing with me during the recent SkyFeed outages, I'm trying my best to keep them online <3 With the recent increase in users, I also had to add some new servers. If you would like to support SkyFeed and cover infrastructure expenses, you can donate here: github.com/sponsors/red...

The main Skyfeed database is down atm, I'm on it.

A few hours ago, 2/3 SkyFeed Query Engine servers stopped fetching new posts from the database. So about 2/3 of feed requests did not show the most recent posts. Should be fixed now, I suspect that it was caused by them getting stuck after the short Hetzner vSwitch network maintenance earlier today.

SkyFeed database server is not reachable for some reason, I'm on it

SkyFeed: I'm running two separated full copies of the database in two different locations. Both of them broke at the same time, looks like due to some bug in the DB. So I'm now trying to somehow recover the corrupted DB state

SkyFeed feeds should be back up, reply here if you find one that's not! Sorry for the downtime

I deployed a fix yesterday, looks like all feeds mentioned in this thread are back online now: bsky.app/profile/reds...

Hey SkyFeed users, I'm sorry for not yet responding to the current feed issues 🙁 From my current data it looks like only a subset of feeds is affected, but of course that's still unacceptable. So if you see a feed that seems to be broken, please reply to this post and I'll check them all in 10 hours

The SkyFeed Query Engine V1 is coming soon! It will support running RegEx (and most other) filters on all posts ever posted on Bluesky. This is especially useful for less frequently mentioned topics, like in the demo feed below. If you would like to try (and help test) the new engine, send me a DM

The SkyFeed Builder will get support for video-related blocks (like only including videos or searching their alt text with regex) next week or so, videos (incl. captions) are already being indexed in the SkyFeed database.

I just re-enabled most personalized SkyFeed feeds (like OnlyPosts and Mutuals), performance is looking good so far. All feeds are however still cached for 10 minutes on average, so please keep that in mind when it seems like new posts aren't appearing on it.

There seem to be some accounts impersonating me and asking for donations, please DO NOT send them money! SkyFeed is a free and open-source third-party service hosting many of the feeds here and if you would like to support it (esp. server costs), the only official way is github.com/sponsors/red...

So uhh, I know I already said this yesterday, but now finally all feeds you created using the SkyFeed Builder should be back up and working again! As it turns out, 2 big new servers were not enough 🙃

Hi, all feeds you created using the SkyFeed Builder should now be back online! 🥳 (but might still take longer than usual to update with new posts) Personalized feeds (OnlyPosts, Mutuals, …) are temporarily disabled to reduce load and will be available again after some more performance optimizations

Just finished copying the ~ 700 GB database snapshot over to the first of the two new servers and setting it up, now I'll deploy all SkyFeed services on it and with a bit of luck we'll be back online in about an hour!

The current SkyFeed infrastructure can't handle the extra load (more than 4x) caused by all the new users. I'm currently setting up two new powerful servers, which should have enough resources to get all feeds back online later today. Thanks for your patience and sorry for the downtime 😊

I just woke up, looks like my efforts to re-route requests in a way to keep everything online failed some hours ago while I was asleep. So until the new servers are available, I will likely need to increase the cache duration, so it might take up to 20 minutes for feeds to update in the worst case 😓

Just ordered a shiny new big server, let's hope it's available soon 😊
