~~EDIT: This has been resolved! Thanks @[email protected] πŸ’™~~

~~Looks like we gotten past one rate limit but we've hit another / (β•―Β°β–‘Β°οΌ‰β•―οΈ΅ ┻━┻~~

This should be fully resolved on 0.8.1. Please update.

Y'all love the https://wefwef.app so much that it's getting rate limited by https://lemmy.world. That's why you're probably getting errors.

I'm talking to get the limited boosted, but in the meantime:

  1. Self-host!
  2. Use a community deployment, and/or host one! There's only one right now. (Note: Make sure you trust the server admin.)
  3. Temporarily use a lemmy account from another instance (wefwef has multi account support!)

Just donate some dollars... doesn't have to be 20M... to our Patreon or OpenCollective :-)

I just setup my own self hosted with docker so that is at least one less user hammering the site. :)

Would you mind sharing your docker-compose.yml?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I just followed his instructions on his GitHub and did a docker pull and then docker run.

I fail at following the two extremely simple steps posted at https://github.com/aeharding/wefwef#prebuilt

This is what I get (running on some recent version of Ubuntu Linux on a machine in my garage):

$ docker pull ghcr.io/aeharding/wefwef:latest (...) Status: Downloaded newer image for ghcr.io/aeharding/wefwef:latest ghcr.io/aeharding/wefwef:latest $ sudo docker run --rm -it -p 5314:5314 wefwef Unable to find image 'wefwef:latest' locally docker: Error response from daemon: pull access denied for wefwef, repository does not exist or may require 'docker login': denied: requested access to the resource is denied. See 'docker run --help'. $

Iβ€˜d love to self-host, but I have no idea how. What are the server requirements? Is a Raspberry Pi sufficient?

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

Raspberry pi should be sufficient if you can get docker on it!

As to selfhosting, I have created an Unraid CA template and submitted it. I hope it will be in the CA store shortly!

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

was wondering what's going on...thanks for the update!

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Interesting, I didn't realize the app sent requests server side. I thought it was more locally running.

It's a reverse proxy for CORS limitations that will be resolved in the next version of Lemmy. :)

See: https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/issues/3109

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Yes it works perfectly fine and fast with feddit.uk (another lemmy instance based in the UK).

When I look at this thread from my account on programming.dev it's outdated by 1 day compared to when I view it via my account on lemmy.world.

Hrmmm

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

What's the current technical plan to alleviate this? Some kind of multi-node setup behind wefwef.app? Less strict rate limiting by lemmy.world for your endpoint?

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Long term: Lemmy CORS support! It will allow direct connect to the instance from your device.

https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/issues/3109

Short term: Coordinating with lemmy.world (ruud) on rate limits

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

This possibly seems to be happening again, no issues with an account from another instance but Lemmy.world account doesn’t load comments, posts and sometimes says that my account doesn’t exist.

Oh, was wondering why wefwef was almost unusable. Its my favorite Lemmy app. Thanks for the update!

[–] [email protected] 0 points 1 year ago (1 children)

0.8.1 should fully resolve lemmy.world connection issues!

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

0.8.1 hits the g spot. We are back!
