Hexbear Proposals chapo.chat matrix room.

This will be a place for site proposals and discussion before implementation on the site.
Every proposal will also be mirrored into a pinned post on the hexbear community.

Any other ideas for helping to integrate the two spaces are welcome to be commented here or messaged to me directly.

Within Hexbear Proposals you can see the history of all site proposals and react to them, indicating a vote for or against a proposal.

Sending messages will be restricted to verified and active hexbear accounts older than 1 month with their matrix id in their hexbear user profile.

All top level messages within the channel must be a Proposals (idea for changing the site), Feedback (regarding non-technical aspects of the site, for technical please use https://hexbear.net/c/feedback), or Appeals (regarding admin/moderator actions).

Discussion regarding these will be within nested threads under the post.

To gain matrix verification, all you need to do is navigate to my hexbear userprofile and click the send a secure private message including your hexbear username.

Issues responding to comments from particular users (hexbear.net)

hey comrades,

I've been having this issue that I thought must have been related to me using Voyager, but I just experienced the same thing through desktop firefox.

When I respond to some users the page load times out and says I can't reply, but it has posted my reply (often without upvoting my own comment)

Obviously not thrilled to be tagging people but one user I have noticed it with replying @Angel@hexbear.net, both threads and comments.

Which is extra annoying cause I've been really enjoying nerding out together.

I think it has happened with other users too. (Really regretting not saving the thread that was extra broken I saw earlier in the week.)

It's not just you. I've been having that issue sporadically for the past few days.

[–] EllenKelly@hexbear.net 8 points 2 months ago (1 children)

If this works then none of these have failed, thanks for replying

[–] JoeByeThen@hexbear.net 7 points 2 months ago

Got it.

[–] Infamousblt@hexbear.net 13 points 2 months ago (3 children)

I haven't been able to reply properly to @Angel@hexbear.net for probably 4-6 months. I can reply, but then it times out. Same if I try to upbear, it times out. It usually goes through though if I just refresh the page but it's pretty annoying. It happens with others too but mostly Angel.

what-the-hell

[–] roux@hexbear.net 9 points 2 months ago (1 children)

You are too powerful lol.

[–] Angel@hexbear.net 8 points 2 months ago (3 children)

No one tran should have all THAT POWER

[–] roux@hexbear.net 5 points 2 months ago

Nope, sorry, it's official. You are now the chosen one.

[–] roux@hexbear.net 5 points 2 months ago

I am cursious if something is going on in the db for your user profile or something because even just now this happened when I commented:

[–] Infamousblt@hexbear.net 5 points 2 months ago (1 children)

If someone's gotta have it though I think you're a top choice

[–] Angel@hexbear.net 6 points 2 months ago (1 children)

🥺

[–] Infamousblt@hexbear.net 7 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Okay you can be a bottom choice if you want

[–] EllenKelly@hexbear.net 12 points 2 months ago

Hexbear is trying to stop us communicating with Angels 🥺 suddenly material analysis requires us to live in reality? I want out!

glad its not just me!

[–] Infamousblt@hexbear.net 6 points 2 months ago

Okay extra weird it timed out just tagging them so that's fun thanks Hexbear very cool

[–] makotech222@hexbear.net 13 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago) (1 children)

Yeah known issue on our end (not sure if upstream knows about it). The PostComment method does a bunch of extra stuff after actually creating the comment, like sending notifications, clearing your own notifications, etc. I imagine one of those is doing a db query that just takes forever and times out at some point

@Angel@hexbear.net do you have anything out of the ordinary on your account? Do you have maybe 100,000 unread notifications or something

edit: wow, even tagging you causes the issue

edit 2: Do you happen to have the 'Send notifications to Email' setting enabled in your profile?

[–] Angel@hexbear.net 10 points 2 months ago (4 children)

Not anymore!

[–] makotech222@hexbear.net 8 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

test

edit: hmm no doesn't seem to be it

[–] EllenKelly@hexbear.net 5 points 2 months ago

Lol I'm sorry I did this, I hope youre okay with the attention!

Guess I'll start clearing my notifications too.. oh no, checking replies 😰

[–] makotech222@hexbear.net 1 points 1 month ago

testing again

[–] Erika3sis@hexbear.net 12 points 2 months ago (1 children)

I've been having this issue with TankieTanuki for a while, and I noticed it with Angel earlier today.

[–] EllenKelly@hexbear.net 8 points 2 months ago

I've only really noticed with Angel but for sure there were some others

[–] propter_hog@hexbear.net 11 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Damn, I never noticed the pattern of it being specific users. I'll start keeping notes from now on to see if that's my issue, too.

[–] Luna@hexbear.net 7 points 2 months ago (1 children)

I noticed this when replying to Angel as well, I just assumed it was random.

[–] EllenKelly@hexbear.net 4 points 2 months ago

I only noticed cause we were nerding out over music the other day lol

[–] Grebgreb@hexbear.net 7 points 2 months ago

I have frequently encountered this with posting notifications with links to other users for a while now. Editing in the the user link after posting without it has been a work around for me.

[–] Chronicon@hexbear.net 7 points 2 months ago

Yeah this is a known issue, or at least I've seen it referenced by a dev/admin as such I think

dunno why it would only affect certain users

[–] grandepequeno@hexbear.net 5 points 2 months ago (1 children)

What is Voyager, is it a browser?

[–] AernaLingus@hexbear.net 3 points 2 months ago (1 children)
[–] Infamousblt@hexbear.net 2 points 2 months ago

Does it support Hexbear emojis? That's the only reason I can't use any client other than web

[–] RedWizard@hexbear.net 5 points 2 months ago

That is strange. I'm not sure that I've experienced this myself, but maybe I have.

[–] roux@hexbear.net 5 points 2 months ago (1 children)

When I post a comment lately the post button will spin for a while but if I refresh the page it will still post if I wait long enough. I did try to make a comment early to someone on Jerboa and got a "deleted by creator" error. After trying several times I gave up. Something is bogging down the way comments are processed for sure.

[–] PM_ME_YOUR_FOUCAULTS@hexbear.net 6 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Same. It will post but with zero upbears

[–] roux@hexbear.net 5 points 2 months ago (1 children)

I just realized you are probably where I've heard of Foucault from. My friend was just recommending Discipline and Punishment to me last week.
