After I created the poll about maybe moderating videos.trom.tf/ and added some messages about asking people to not abuse our platform with conspiracy crap, plus after I created a new homepage and front and center is a documentary on the frontpage about the crazy antivaxxers, seems like little to no crap content was uploaded to our instance. What if it works this way? To stop them from uploading in the first place rather than wait for them to upload and then remove their content!?

What if it works to annoy them by making scientific content, and some that debunks their beliefs, front-and-center on our instance?

Lets see. I will push that and wait for our poll to end in a week or so - here it is poll.trom.tf/studs.php?poll=J5… - vote please if you haven't.

After the vote is done I will make another TROMcast and invite admins from other instances if they want to participate. #tromlive

Oh wow so they managed to get 319 terabits/second—across more than 3000 km. This sounds insane. Would it be possible in the future to get such insane speeds for most connections? Well...I remember the old internet when i was downloading movies with 25Kb/s....and now you get 25Mb/s easily. But yah, they are using an extreme setup there to achieve these speeds. In any case, keep an eye on tromnews.com/ for such interesting news ;) #tromlive

idk what I have done to my Friendica but it shows a 502 Bad Gateway nginx error quite often....I added a few RSS sources from Reddit and that seemed to have messed it up but I don't understand what. I removed them since...

The nginx error logs show stuff like 2021/08/02 07:05:57 [error] 2732#2732: *1092 upstream timed out (110: Connection timed out) while reading response header from upstream, client: ******, server: social.trom.tf, request: "GET /ping?format=json&uid=22&_=1627677955767 HTTP/2.0", upstream: "fastcgi://unix:/var/run/php/php7.3-fpm-friendica.sock", host: "social.trom.tf", referrer: "https://social.trom.tf/network"

Didn't sleep trying to figure it out so am tired sorry for the messy message.

Basically now loads fine for a few minutes, then loads very slow to the point of nginx giving up as explained above. If any of you has any idea what I should try let me know. Gonna have some sleep now, not good to work on such things when you are zombie tired, you may mess things up more.

Thanks!

@muppeth I'm just worried I may destroy it haha. I will have to look carefully into how to properly setup the static value. I am a bit in the dark when it comes to calculating the max_children for friendica. But I'll need to look into that for sure. I am wondering tho, even with that cosmic number pm.max_children = 500 if our resources seem to be really ok, is that a bad thing? Now our Friendica works really well and it barely uses our CPU or RAM.

idk what I have done to our Friendica but it shows a 502 Bad Gateway nginx error quite often....and is 7am....tired now, I added a few RSS sources from Reddit and that seemed to have fucked it up but I don't understand what. I removed them since...

The nginx error logs show stuff like 2021/08/02 07:05:57 [error] 2732#2732: *1092 upstream timed out (110: Connection timed out) while reading response header from upstream, client: ******, server: social.trom.tf, request: "GET /ping?format=json&uid=22&_=1627677955767 HTTP/2.0", upstream: "fastcgi://unix:/var/run/php/php7.3-fpm-friendica.sock", host: "social.trom.tf", referrer: "https://social.trom.tf/network"

EDIT: Seems to work better now after restarting the php-fpm...but I'll have to go to sleep...problem with Friendica (social.trom.tf) is that the database is so large I cannot restore it with yunohost...nginx fails (times out...). Anyways I hope will be ok. Will look more into it tomorrow. #tromlive

From my experience adding ton of rss accounts (bif and active) will cause lot of traffic and in return can put the instance down. Next time it happens, check how many fpm processes you have running and how many sql queies are running. If all child processes declared in your php config are in use, your site will be down until either they finish or you restart php.

Privacy Redirect added a Wikipedia option alongside Youtube, Twitter, Insatgram, Google services... I do not agree with their decision and I argued here why github.com/SimonBrazell/privac…

It is weird that they add Wikipedia to the list, as if Wikipedia is a privacy concern, and their reasoning (believe it or not) is that NSA may be infiltrated into Wikipedia...an assumption of course.

On the other hand they add alternatives for reddit such as old.reddit.com that is full of trackers and ads. And for search engines they add ad-based ones like DuckDuckGo, Startpage, Ecosia or Qwant.

Very very inconsistent! Opened an issue here github.com/SimonBrazell/privac…

Since i do not own any apple devices, if anyone does can you test the following apps with our TROMsocial?

Just login and make a post and such, for a minute or so. if they work we can add them to trom.tf/social/

Warning: early studies.

So the Delta COVID variant is more infectious than the flu (which says a lot), and vaccinated people carry about the same amount of viruses as the un-vaccinated ones. pbs.org/newshour/health/study-…

Which makes you think....the tables have turned....now un-vaccinated people are fucked because they are not even protected by the vaccinated ones. But the vaccinated ones, despite the same load of virus inside of them, are unlikely to experience a severe outcome of the infection.

In other words: the Delta COVID spreads super fast even via vaccinated people. And if you are not vaccinated, then good luck to you! I wish you well, but you may not be.

I am amused at the irony of the situation now....So I'll keep on staying vaccinated and I always wear a mask when I go outside. Do the same you morons! Facebook warriors...psh...

they ain't gonna experience a major illness if hit by covid for one simple reason. they got vaccinated, that's what vaccinations do, help ya immune system get primed for kicking covid's ass.

as for the unvaccinated....

They are waiting for Darwinism to take them... and there has been many cases of unvaccinated regretting their life choices at the death bed

i may Zero apologise for this last bit. cos the unvaxxed are like pack of idiots...

not getting major illness which means to me anyway they won't need hospital visits, ventilators etc

yes you'll get flu symptoms if your vaccinated i was just making a point compared to unvaccinated people vaccinated people are gonna have a lot less issues.....

and there has been documented cases where unvaccinated have died from being an idiot :)

sorry if my reply didn't make sense :)

ah right , ya think i would know this fact as i still wear a mask, using hand sanitizer etc even after i got double pfizer'ed (with new installed 5g Capablities!). I'm still being being extra careful even now im vaccinated cos I don't want Delta variant anymore than the next person

I was making a point in my original toot about being vaccinated is way better than being unvaccinated too, sort of got misinterpreted XD

We will go live in less than 7 hours.

TROMcast: To Moderate, Or Not

Today we will discuss about this notion of moderating the Internet content by looking closely at our videos.trom.tf (Peertube) instance and what happens to it. The fact that it is full of nonsense content and why is it that these alternative platforms such as Peertube, get invaded by the worst that the Internet and our society has produced.

I managed to be very efficient today and worked a lot on trom.tf. Released TROMmaps officially and made a very cool presentation page for it ;). I like it! And it is such a great tool.

We will also move to Matrix. Our instance works great so far, there are millions using it already, and yeah is simply functional and easy to use. Will make it public soon so anyone can use our instance too. What I love is that so many open source projects already have Matrix rooms and I joined a few like for Invidious, Kdenlive, Matrix, Yunohost, and other, and got in quick and direct touch with the people behind these projects and managed to track down some bugs and ask some questions and such. It is great to have direct access to their chats like that.

Worked on improving our TROMsocial presentation page and a bit the other ones trom.tf/ + now all cards info from the front page open in a new page. It is better like that than popups since in popups certain elements didn't work.

O put TROM II on hold these days...I want to fix some stuff with trom.tf and other things. I will get back to it after TROMcast. I tried to work last night but I had a mental collapse when I saw 5 hours of materials, clipped into so many parts + so many notes, that need to be reduced to 15 or so minutes...I did a bit of work but could not do much...

I don't want to stress myself with TROM II or any project. I want to enjoy life and let these things be part of this enjoyable life. So if I don't feel like working on TROM II, I am for sure in the mood to work on trom.tf, or tromjaro, or something else.
