Thanks. The last couple of weeks have been pretty intense. Always looking at bugs and solving problems makes it feel like everything is broken all of the time so a bit of positivity goes a long way to balancing that out :)

Any ideas what the cause of those FRBs are?

Literally hell on earth.
lol, wow
Rimu@piefed.socialto PieFed help@piefed.social•I can't see some PieFed posts from LemmyEnglish9·2 days agoThere have been some problems with federation lately. I believe the cause is that following piefed communities from other instances has had some bugs, which I’ve just fixed.
Going to Lemmy, leave the community and then join again will probably help to make future posts arrive. I’ve already done that for South Africa, you don’t need to - I’m just saying it so others can see it.
Rimu@piefed.socialto Fuck Cars@lemmy.world•Am I overreacting for wanting to quit driving altogether?English22·3 days agoIt’s not for everyone. About 10% of people almost never drive. Up to 20% in urban areas of countries with good public transport.

The upvote of one’s own post/comment does not federate. The only effect that upvote has is on the local instance and remote instances that receive the content are free to initialize the score of that new content however they wish.
Rimu@piefed.socialMto PieFed Meta@piefed.social•Has anyone else been experiencing federation glitches to and from Piefed?English3·4 days agoThings have been rocky this week as there has been a doubling in the amount of coding being done (and the pace before that was already fast). PieFed.social is being updated with new code multiple times per day, sometimes that fixes things sometimes it breaks stuff.
Please bear with us, I think the worst is over.

I’ve put CORS headers on everything now, go for it.
Rimu@piefed.socialMto PieFed Meta@piefed.social•CORS doesn't work on the piefed APIEnglish3·5 days agoIt’s working for me. Try this:
<!-- Save this as test-cors.html and open in a browser --> <!DOCTYPE html> <html> <body> <script> fetch("https://piefed.social/api/alpha/comment?id=6527216", { method: "GET", // or "POST", etc. headers: { "Content-Type": "application/json" } }) .then(response => response.text()) .then(data => console.log("Success:", data)) .catch(error => console.error("CORS Error:", error)); </script> </body> </html>
I don’t know, sorry.

Should be ok now, cheers.
Hi there,
The community migration feature that PieFed has is quite limited - no posts are actually transferred from the old instance to the new one. All that happens is that a remote community (which might have only received a few posts as piefed.blahaj.zone is very new) is reassigned to be a local community and all the posts in it too.
That’s why !Womensstuff@piefed.blahaj.zone has only 5 days of posts.
It’s a bit “smoke and mirrors”.
On a more mature instance, like piefed.social, which has been subscribed to communities for a long time the instance has most of the history of most communities so the migration feature works relatively well.
Rimu@piefed.socialOPMto PieFed 2025 Roadmap prioritisation@piefed.social•Mobile appEnglish2·7 days agoPieFed has all those features, if you use the browser. The PWA is fine, I use it often.

Rimu@piefed.socialto Fediverse@piefed.social•Fediverse Report – #120 (Had some piefed news)English9·7 days agoFediverse report has their finger on the pulse!
Pretty much what fxomt said. The endpoint urls are the same but on some a few parameters are different and some of the returned JSON is structured slightly differently.
When Lemmy releases 1.0 and makes big changes their API, PieFed will not be trying to make compatible changes. We’ll also be wanting to add new endpoints for PieFed-only features like feeds so the differences will increase over time.
