I recently decided to try out Piefed.World, after using Lemmy.World for so long.
I’m a community mod, and, previously, when using my Lemmy account, the community information showed me this:

But when I access it via Piefed, it shows me this:

Is there an issue with federation, or…?
The community name is !okbuddyrosalyn@lemmy.world
Yeah, the activity numbers can be pretty wrong. There is an older issue about this on codeberg: https://codeberg.org/rimu/pyfedi/issues/424
I haven’t really dug into this issue yet, so I am not sure if the issue is that certain activities aren’t marking users as active recently or that the db queries are somehow not counting users correctly. I suspect it is the former, that certain user actions (eg vote, comment, etc.) aren’t then also marking that user as having been recently active.
I think this might currently be a bug in PieFed. Some other PieFed admins have been reporting issues with the active user counts being off as well. I’m not sure if PieFed uses the same logic to count active users as Lemmy, but that could be another source of difference. Looking through the last couple posts they seem to all have federated along with all their comments and at least most of the votes (1 or 2 votes were missing but that can happen sometimes).
Thx for the information.
The instance (piefed.world) also feels somewhat slower.
Like it takes a bit for stuff to load.
Although, I’m not sure if it’s actually the instance, or if I’ve just chosen a bad time to join, and they’re having issues.
EDIT: @MrKaplan@lemmy.world I also made an official issue , in Codeberg.
performance should already have improved a bit on certain queries, is this noticeable?
there are still a number of slow queries, but they’ll probably have to wait for the weekend.
Yeah, it’s definitely better.
Thanks very much
we’re currently investigating a bit of DB slowness there. I hope we’ll have that fixed soon.
this may be a result of changes in piefed since we updated to 1.6 a few days ago where we may need to adjust some tuning.
