You’re rocketderp based on your instability I’m guessing?

Yes. My name is Stephen Alfred Gutknecht. It is clearly detailed here on my profile that I am "RocketDerp" on GitHub.

Looks like your the only one that is nonsensical in that thread.

Issue 2910? The word "nonsense" is being discussed about a Lemmy TRIGGER on June 4, 2023.

I’m guessing you never worked on a group project before or have had anyone disagree with you.

You would be guessing wrong. Since late 2019 I am in constant mental anguish and barely surviving. My communications is a constant struggle and I openly disclose this so that it is understood, I am not attempting to cover it up.

I’m guessing you never worked on a group project before

The "i'm guessing" game. And I note you can't actually cite the Github issues by number (2910) or keep details here in fact. A lot of "guessing" going on.

based on your instability I’m guessing?

"guessing" again. Should I guess you do not know how difficult or easy it is to remove a TRIGGER in PostgreSQL that is causing server crashes?

You aren’t the victim here.

Why do you think this is about "me"? I haven't donated money to the project or had blind faith in the developers.

You’re the bully.

I'm beyond frustrated that they seem to be going so far out of their way to have servers crash that their motives for doing so need explanation. "Social hazing" is the best answer I can come up with. I've now outright asked why they are dong it, because the pattern of behavior with trying to let server crashes has been going on now for months.

I have to admit that it's amazing the number of people they have attracted with the server crashing. It's been a social experience in some ways like Elon Musk is doing with Twitter. Perhaps it bothers me when other people actually seem to enjoy it. That seems to be the hiveMind reaction here. In that sense, if it is "social hazing", it has worked very well.

No.

The feature you suggest be ripped out is one that many people like. I've seen people say they hate Mastodon because "Likes" are only counted on the local server and they feel it's useless. You can't just suggest rip it out without a fix in its place.

Do we even know the read/write operations of the database are what's pulling it down when it crashes? Sure it's not the best code I've seen, but on large instances it still manages quite the uptime. Without insight into the cause of the crashes, you can't honestly say "this, this right here." Could it help? Probably. Do you need to suggest someone enjoys murdering people because they don't immediately implement something? Probably not.

Just because you can't think of another reason why they didn't listen to you, it doesn't mean that the one you thought of is correct. That's not how logic works. It's narcissistic to believe that you can think of every explanation for something that's happening.
