Apologies for just seeing this. I will take a look. Mbin has some issues.

Good to hear

Apologies - I’ve been having all manner of problems with mbin processing inbound federation messages. I don’t have a fix, or even know what the problem is yet, but trying to keep it working.

So far, we are the only ones having the problem. It is almost certainly because we have many more accounts/activity than others. The current problem may be a rabbitmq bug

it was indeed broken again. should be fixed now

The modlog function in lemmy/mbin can be a bit confusing. I don’t think the moderation actions of one instance propagate to the modlog of another instance. I think that is only really problematic in cases where the moderation action was taken on the home instance of a magazine/community.

thanks. I think the name of the instance is the most important part - I can test of federation with them to see what went wrong.

At the moment, there isn’t anything going on that would cause that. Can you tell me which other instance/which thread so i can try to troubleshoot?

I am investigating…

Did it take a long time before that error came back?

In the worst case scenario, fedia.io will be around for at least 5 more years (that is apparently the standard subset timeline). I have many more domain names if the worst comes, but there is a lot of expectation that the .io may somehow be saved due to the incredible amount of infrastructure built around it (GitHub.io, dockerhub.io, and of course fedia.io among many others)

Thanks for the ping - working on it

yeah, apologies. it seems to know when I am out at dinner. it’s catching up now

I see it - it’s working again and I’m trying to figure out why rabbitmq died yet again.

I don’t know yet - it’s definitely not expected, so my guess is an unintentional bug in mbin somewhere. I am hoping to find a way run a profiler or something similar to see what it’s doing.

I’ve been in the business for about 25 years. I have a hard time recommending people jump in at this point, or at least to understand the market now. While there is constant talk of “unfilled cyber jobs”, the reality is that many people with experience are struggling to find a job in the field.

If you can get in and find a stable spot at a good company, it’s a great career, but those are getting hard to find I fear. Anyhow, please do a bit of reading about the job market for cyber security before making a decision.

thank you again for your help! I was at the end of my rope and you gave me the idea that solved it
