Speed run through the fediverse baby!
Less than 3M activities behind now!
@julian What did you do to get 3M activities? I’d like to try that too :)
[email protected] simple! Respond to a Lemmy server with a 500, and once you hit 40 in one day the instance puts you on a timeout. Repeat as needed until your backlog is 4M activities 😅
In my case I had a spam protection measure that limited the amount of upvotes per user in one day. Someone on a Lemmy server uploaded past that threshold and NodeBB started sending back 500s.
You’re not the first fedidev to experience this, Lemmy is just extra 💅:
[email protected] it’s less that and more Lemmy’s ridiculously effective synchronization mechanic that Mastodon doesn’t utilise!
Part of the reason is that Lemmy forwards all replies and votes to community followers. Mastodon doesn’t do that, so if you’re on a different instance you can miss a lot of content.
Nice to see your post in here, though! Making good progress?
Better and better every day… Hoping we can get some additional funding to really accelerate development!
Who makes decisions on which features get implemented next?
I’m scared to contribute to any projects because I doubt my work would be utilized. I’m wondering if there’s a schedule or something I can look at, and prepare for upcoming work? or, how do people get involved
Depends on the project, and I imagine a lot of the smaller ones are your standard FOSS BDFL leadership.
In my case I’ll likely make a rough milestone list based off our NLNet memorandum and go from there.
