Dear friends of the BSD Cafe,
The Lemmy instance (BlendIT) has been causing issues for a long time. Updating it is problematic—it doesn’t compile easily on FreeBSD, requires a huge amount of resources, and fails to delete old remote media. Recently, it has also started throwing unknown errors that are nearly impossible to debug.
Unfortunately, I can no longer rely on it.
I’m sad to announce that this will likely be the first BSD Cafe service to be retired. I can’t trust it at this level of reliability, I can’t let it grow indefinitely, and I can’t stop upgrading it while letting it run in this state.
I’ll take another look at it, but—though it pains me to say this—please be prepared for this possibility.
EDIT: It’s not official, yet. I’ll still try to keep this online.
It kind of sucks, I didn’t see that one coming!
Did you reported it or is the issue already reported in the lemmy github repo? May be someone over there can help?We’re sad to see you go :/
I’ll still try to keep this up and running before dismissing it - but I’m not sure I’ll be able to
I understand
