Web developer. Lead developer of PieFed

  • Would you use this app?: 'Subscription' to FOSS

    Jump

  • If you could have it track browser usage too then it could donate to Lemmy, PieFed, Mbin, Mastodon, etc.

  • I created some WAF Cloudflare rules and now my server is smooth and FAST

    Jump

  • Please add PieFed to the allowlist.

  • How does resource utilization compare between Piefed and Lemmy?

    Jump

  • Yes, it's tricky. I don't remember which instance it was but it was one of the smaller lemmy instances with roughly the same MAU as Piefed.social, tho. Not any of the top 6 Lemmy instances.

    It could have been an outlier. Looks like lemmy.mods4ever.com is much more reasonable although that's a single-user instance so it's going to be the absolute minimum.

  • How does resource utilization compare between Piefed and Lemmy?

    Jump

  • I can't find/remember the post but recently an admin shared some resource usage graphs. The thing that jumped out at me was their Lemmy instance was using 32 GB of ram while their PieFed instance was using 2 GB of ram. Maybe a little more, but it was low single digits.

    Maybe their piefed graph did not include postgresql, which should be 2 GB just by itself... That would bring the total up to around 4 or 5 GB. piefed.social uses between 4 and 5 GB, too.

    CPU usage was quite similar between the two.

  • The algorithm failed music

    Jump

  • I really noticed that problem on Spotify. Lots of 2 minute tracks/songs that are just one musical idea with no development or iteration of it and really limited recommendations.

    Tidal was much better.

  • I haven’t written a line of code in a month.

  • You won't be the only one, surely interviews are going to have to change once no one can do white boarding anymore!

    A recent JetBrains survey I saw found that 85% of devs are using AI in some capacity.

  • I guess they get the corrections and adjustments done by telling the LLM what corrections and adjustments to make?

  • How long till you lose the ability to manually write code, you reckon?

  • Recomendations please for a self-hosted contact form on VPS (RESOLVED)

    Jump

  • I'm a flask developer but even so I would use PHP for this. There are a million php-based contact form scripts on the web and configuring caddy to use PHP will be easier than python/flask.

    As for the sending email part - don't run a smtp server locally, too much hassle. Smtp2go has a free tier which will be fine.

  • Loki - An All-in-One, Batteries Included LLM CLI

    Jump

  • Oh ok, so if Lemmy implimented MCP you'd be able to ask Loki "hey what's the main themes people are discussing in [email protected] at the moment?" and the MCP is what gives Loki enough smarts to know which Lemmy API calls to make to get the posts?

  • I am curious about hosting my own lemmy/mastodon server

    Jump

  • IMO Lemmy/PieFed is safer to run because the community mods will delete anything illegal, which will delete it for you, too. About 5 instances host 95% of communities worth joining so it's easy for us to coordinate defense.

    Mastodon is thousands of instances and more wild west. Bad stuff can come from anywhere.

  • Admins: Set up Anubis ASAP!

  • Very interesting, thanks.

  • Good idea, I'll add something similar to PieFed.

  • What is your favorite way to browse lemmy?

    Jump

  • I'm surprised this is not more popular.

  • Why are people using the "þ" character?

  • Why are people using the "þ" character?

  • On PieFed, that character is automatically converted to 'th'.
