@arth Sharkey has been updated and an issue with polls should have been fixed.

@pekka Well apparently, antennas stop updating if you don't look at them for a week. You need to re-save the antenna definition to get it going again. Let's see if we can fix that

Hmm no still doesn't look right, way too much disk I/O going on. But, bedtime now. More tomorrow.

I understand there have been some performance issues on sharkey.world since the last update. Strange, the larger server calckey.world doesn't have the issues.

After some troubleshooting I've tuned the database settings. Let's see how that holds, I'll check back tomorrow.

Ran into some issues while upgrading sharkey.world, but with the help of the #Sharkey devs the issues are resolved and the instance upgraded. Thank you for your patience!

We've updated ruud.social and sharkey.world to Sharkey v2025.2.2

For calckey.world the upgrade is still running, it encountered an issue we're working on.

Hello #Fediverse and Happy New Year!

I'd like to mark the start of 2025 with the first message from my self-hosted instance. You may already know me as @_elena@mastodon.social. Well, now I also run my own #ActivityPub microblogging server, thanks to the magic of #YunoHost and #GoToSocial (and #Phanpy, which I'm using to compose this).

I registered this domain – aseachange.com – a looooong time ago but never did anything with it. It was the very first domain name I ever bought, even before securing elenarossini.com (!!!). It was so long ago, but I remember I was inspired by Beck's album Sea Change. seachange[dot]com was taken, so I grabbed Aseachange.

I absolutely love its meaning of profound transformation and I think it's PERFECT for my self-hosted #Fediverse instance and what it represents: independence, empowerment and digital sovereignty.

Ever since setting it up, I've been feeling joyful and hopeful. Everytime I look at myself in the mirror, I think: I'm in control of my own social media platform. And it feels SOOO GOOD.

What do I have in store for 2025? I plan to use this account to post messages about #selfhosting, learning #Linux, privacy and digital sovereignty.

I will also keep posting from my Mastodon account because you don't give a Lamborghini to someone who just passed their driver's license. I barely know what I'm doing here, so I feel a lot safer (for now) keeping my mastodon.social account as well... In case anything goes wrong here. Better safe than sorry!

So, this is my #Introduction and if you've read as far as here I just want to thank the Fediverse for being so amazing and allowing me to connect with people on my own terms. And thank you Fedi people for being so generous and supportive with your superb advice and kind words.

This is a really magical, special place.

Happy New Year, everyone!

We've just released version 2024.8.1 of Sharkey!

What's that? Releasing on Friday the 13th is a bad omen? Pshh, it'll be fine.

User visible changes:
- You can now search your drive files by name or description.
- You can now disable the "edited" notifications.
- When you block a user, they're now also muted, so you won't see their notes even if they get boosted into your timeline (you can un-mute them if you want).
- "My Plays" page now shows the visibility of plays without clicking into each individual play.
- Users can now report pages, galleries, and plays.
- Follow requests from suspended accounts are no longer shown.

Of interest to admins:
- Password checks and websocket connections are rate limited now; this improves security and resistance to denial-of-service attacks.
- When an admin deletes all files of another user, those deletions are logged in the moderation log.
- All memory caches are now limited, Sharkey should use less RAM overall.
- New setting
attachLdSignatureForRelays to disable sending LD-Signatures to relays.
- More checks at startup: db reachability, config file presence.
- URL previews are cached on the server, this should reduce the load on websites that get linked in popular notes.
- Remote documents that return
text/html but specify <link rel="alternate" type="application/activity+json" href="..."/> tags are now supported.

Upgrade notes:
Some column sizes have changed; upstream recommendeds to run:

DROP INDEX "public"."IDX_e5848eac4940934e23dbc17581";
CREATE INDEX CONCURRENTLY "IDX_e5848eac4940934e23dbc17581" ON "drive_file" ("uri");
