  1. @vegos Should not have been affected by this in any way whatsoever, and I don't see anything of relevance in the logs…

  2. @vegos So it is. Moved the database to PostgreSQL.
    Took much longer than I thought, but still a success :-).

      • @alicia Yes :-).
        If you mean life as in living creatures (probably, heh), then it's tricky, because, strangely, it falls into the same categorising pit as "where does green end and blue begin exactly", i.e. there is no good well-defined line between what is alive and what isn't as much.
        Some questions simply cannot have a clean-cut answer by design.

        • @vegos Well, Debian 10 Buster and hence Devuan 3 Beowulf got a bit of moss since then of course.
          It's still fine for my server needs (including GNU social) though.
          In a year it will become more problematic, but in a year Debian 11 Bullseye will happen, and I probably won't wait for Devuan 4 Chimaera to reach stable as well.

          On the desktop I use !opensuse Tumbleweed, so… no moss there %).
          But you're probably firmly against systemd, so it's not a recommendation. You could try Artix Linux though.

            @alicia Easy.
            It's a news agency linked to the Kremlin: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Life_(news_agency,_Russia)

            • > Thanks, I had to read first, what that Redis is. Never ate it, but I'm pleased, you care about it.
              @vegos That was a technicality. It's a performant key-value database that can be used for caching and queues in GNU social.
              And the plug-in in GNU social for caching via Redis didn't account for that when the GNU social daemons fork the new processes need to reconnect to Redis.
              Otherwise different commands from different processes that share the same Redis connection will start receiving replies from Redis that could have been meant for a different process.
              Sometimes that meant a PHP crash, which is what stopped some posts from being sent to Twitter.

              !loadaverage had the plug-in enabled for about month, I'm not sure why this issue got more evident now.

              • @vegos !loadaverage was actually running on Devuan Beowulf pretty much ever since Debian Buster was released.
                Issues that stalled it's promotion to stable didn't concern me much.
                And before that I did the same thing with Devuan Ascii.

                      • @vaeringjar We’re just hearing about the impending shutdown of GSNO. Is there any chance that you’d be willing to transfer it to another GS Admin to keep it running?

                        I’m in the US, so I can’t control a .no domain, but maybe we can find someone in Europe that would be willing to do so.

                          • @vegos It seems that this was caused by a flaw in the RedisCache plug-in, which shared connections between daemon threads.
                            Something about TwitterBridge made it more apparent.

                                    Well, there's this answer.
                                    There are !gnusocial instances out there that have ActivityPub enabled, !loadaverage isn't one of them yet.
                                    When confidence in the implementation not making a mess in the database is high enough, you'll know :-).
