Temporarily closed signups because of spam signups

So some spam signups just happened (all [email protected] format e-mail) This caused bounced mail to increase, causing Mailgun to block our domain to prevent it getting blacklisted.

So:

  • Mail temporarily doesn't work
  • I closed signups for now
  • I will ban the spam accounts
  • I will check how to prevent (maybe approval required again?)

Stay tuned.

Edit: so apparently there is a captcha option which I now enabled. Let's see if this prevents spam. Registrations open again.

Edit2 : Hmm Mailgun isn't that fast in unblocking the domain. Closing signups again because validation mails aren't sent

Edit 3: I convinced Mailgun to lift the block. Signups open again.

Unable to reply to users from kbin.social

I have noticed this couple of times, I can't reply to users from kbin.social. The loader keeps spinning, and if you refresh, the reply doesn't show.

Is this a known issue, or just some random network / system load issue?

Solution (also posted as a comment below) Select ‘English’ as the language for the reply, otherwise it won’t post to any instance that doesn’t have ‘undetermined’ in the languages or to kbin.social account.

Posts not showing up

I can't see my posts on lemmy.world (https://lemmy.world/u/temmyno1/view/Posts/sort/New/page/1) but I can view them through lemmy.ca (https://lemmy.ca/u/[email protected]/view/Posts/sort/New/page/1). Help?

edit: the problem was cause I had disabled "Show Read Posts" in user settings 💀 !

Some federation issues

I still see some federation issues:

  • It sometimes takes a few tries before a remote post or community is found
  • Remote replies don't show up
  • Subscriptions to remote communties are stuck in 'pending'

I'll look into that.
