Another night of instability here on infosec.town. It's seeming to happen once everyone gets home and pops on to engage.
But what's more, I'm finding that blocks on here are essentially useless. Maybe that's a broader ActivityPub issue, but it's quite irksome to see posts from blocked accounts in boosts and searches.
@jerry@singe Incredible; thank you! Although the timing does suggest that the issue may be independent of the cache. I guess we'll find out tomorrow morning!
@mttaggart to be clear, the cause is definitely external - I see huge numbers of failed incoming messages, but I think iceshrimp is not handling them super elegantly and ends up with overly large queues sitting in redis that cause a slow down. I have to increase logging verbosity to try to find the source of the errors - it may will be the same lemmy.world issue
