I would like games to arrive as a single complete package, but I was relatively fond of expansion packs from games like RollerCoaster Tycoon.

They took the game you already had, and pretty much doubled it, they were fantastic!

Far better than any modern DLC for sure.

    Hi, I run the Lemmy instance over at https://compuverse.uk I seem to be getting spammed with literally thousands of incoming activity requests (primarily coming in from lemmy.world and lemmy.ml). (I measured about 1 new request ever 0.01 -> 0.02 seconds)

    The error message in the Lemmy logs is very unhelpful, giving 0 detail about the actual error itself.

    The UUIDs in the activities seem to be all unique, rather than duplicates. Does anybody have any idea what's going on and why there is such a large torrent of requests coming in?

    This was so bad it essentially caused a DoS attack on my instance, and brought it down. I have had to move the PostgreSQL server onto a more powerful machine in order to keep up with the request rate!

    Any help or advice is greatly appreciated :)

    Thanks,

    Cameron

    Federation Query (compuverse.uk)
     

    Hi all, I'm very new to this fediverse thing!

    I've recently setup my own instance of Lemmy which I've called "CompuVerse".

    This seems to be going quite well, the instance is setup, I seem to be able to view content from other instances and even comment and such!

    However, I'm noticing a few oddities. I'm not sure if I'm just misunderstanding something about how the fediverse works, but I don't seem to be able to see my comments and posts from other instances.

    For example:

    lemmy.ml: https://lemmy.ml/u/cameron@compuverse.uk Shows no content for my account

    beehaw.org: https://beehaw.org/u/cameron@compuverse.uk Shows comments, but no posts

    However, if I view other users' profiles from my own instance, I can see both their posts and comments.

    Is this normal or have I managed to mess something up with federation?

    Scratch that, upon making this post I've realised what's happening.

    It would appear that I can't see any content that I posted to my own instance from other instances such as lemmy.ml and beehaw.org.

    Does anyone have any tips at all?

    Much appreciated,

    Cameron
