[RESOLVED__FINAL2.docx] wefwef.app is getting rate limited by lemmy.world (self.wefwef)

~~EDIT: This has been resolved! Thanks @[email protected] 💙~~

~~Looks like we gotten past one rate limit but we've hit another / (╯°□°）╯︵ ┻━┻~~

This should be fully resolved on 0.8.1. Please update.

Y'all love the https://wefwef.app so much that it's getting rate limited by https://lemmy.world. That's why you're probably getting errors.

I'm talking to get the limited boosted, but in the meantime:

Self-host!
Use a community deployment, and/or host one! There's only one right now. (Note: Make sure you trust the server admin.)
Temporarily use a lemmy account from another instance (wefwef has multi account support!)

Just donate some dollars... doesn't have to be 20M... to our Patreon or OpenCollective :-)

[–] stargazer4416 12 points 2 years ago (1 children)

What's the current technical plan to alleviate this? Some kind of multi-node setup behind wefwef.app? Less strict rate limiting by lemmy.world for your endpoint?

[–] aeharding 19 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

Long term: Lemmy CORS support! It will allow direct connect to the instance from your device.

https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/issues/3109

Short term: Coordinating with lemmy.world (ruud) on rate limits

I‘d love to self-host, but I have no idea how. What are the server requirements? Is a Raspberry Pi sufficient?

[–] aeharding 13 points 2 years ago

Raspberry pi should be sufficient if you can get docker on it!

[–] rylin 8 points 2 years ago (2 children)

I just setup my own self hosted with docker so that is at least one less user hammering the site. :)

Would you mind sharing your docker-compose.yml?

[–] rylin 6 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I just followed his instructions on his GitHub and did a docker pull and then docker run.

I fail at following the two extremely simple steps posted at https://github.com/aeharding/wefwef#prebuilt

This is what I get (running on some recent version of Ubuntu Linux on a machine in my garage):

$ docker pull ghcr.io/aeharding/wefwef:latest (...) Status: Downloaded newer image for ghcr.io/aeharding/wefwef:latest ghcr.io/aeharding/wefwef:latest $ sudo docker run --rm -it -p 5314:5314 wefwef Unable to find image 'wefwef:latest' locally docker: Error response from daemon: pull access denied for wefwef, repository does not exist or may require 'docker login': denied: requested access to the resource is denied. See 'docker run --help'. $

[–] rylin 1 points 2 years ago

I had this issue and I used this command and it worked.

docker run --rm -it -p 5314:5314 ghcr.io/aeharding/wefwef:latest

[–] AnonLordo 3 points 2 years ago

I did it with Portainer, it's very easy. Just create a new container, add ghcr.io/aeharding/wefwef:latest as image source and publish port 5413.

[–] rylin 1 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

This is the docker file.

Thank you!! :-)

[–] Barns 6 points 2 years ago

was wondering what's going on...thanks for the update!

[–] timespace 5 points 2 years ago

As to selfhosting, I have created an Unraid CA template and submitted it. I hope it will be in the CA store shortly!

[–] [email protected] 5 points 2 years ago

Yes it works perfectly fine and fast with feddit.uk (another lemmy instance based in the UK).

[–] [email protected] 5 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Interesting, I didn't realize the app sent requests server side. I thought it was more locally running.

[–] aeharding 18 points 2 years ago

It's a reverse proxy for CORS limitations that will be resolved in the next version of Lemmy. :)

This possibly seems to be happening again, no issues with an account from another instance but Lemmy.world account doesn’t load comments, posts and sometimes says that my account doesn’t exist.

[–] Sanctus 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Oh, was wondering why wefwef was almost unusable. Its my favorite Lemmy app. Thanks for the update!

[–] aeharding 3 points 2 years ago (1 children)

0.8.1 should fully resolve lemmy.world connection issues!

[–] Sanctus 3 points 2 years ago

0.8.1 hits the g spot. We are back!

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

When I look at this thread from my account on programming.dev it's outdated by 1 day compared to when I view it via my account on lemmy.world.

Hrmmm
