Feedback Technical Grievances

  • 🐕 I am attempting to get the site runnning as fast as possible. If you are experiencing slow page load times, please report it.
I have made another series of changes. This time I've also modified system tcp settings. Let me know if you're still getting http2 hangups (where the site just stops loading despite working well over all, usually fixed by closing all tabs and reopening the site). I also found a VPS that had an interface mtu of 9000 which is fucking absurd, it might have just been that frontend causing issues.

(Edit; I also just restarted two devices so don't complain about that, I mean from this point forward).

I opened a thread from the new submissions section just before this downtime, and now it doesn't exist. Was it deleted or is there data loss?
 
please god where the fuck do I put this so people see it

like realistically how the fuck do you expect me to diagnose anything with what you're giving me
Make it a banner at the top of this thread, like the LFJ and Keffals thread have. Good luck, users always think you can magically detect their setup (I don't miss my time in the tech support dungeon).

Site is loading incredibly fast, good job. The only quirk I've seen today is profile pictures, but they're only loading in a second slower than the page, which is probably expected. It's a great improvement over them not loading sometimes.
 
i am fucking begging you people to include information

specific page link
browser
os
mobile? desktop?
tor?

The number #1 request of all sysadmins since the role was born, is smarter users. ❤️

yes, that's that http2 session error I'm completely stumped over. i have never seen it before and can't find other people talking about it.
I recall some problems with pushing content that requires cookies / auth to retrieve. I'm trying to dredge old knowledge back to the surface. (By pushing I mean Push functionality). Is it specifically 30 seconds people are seeing the pause for as in always 30 seconds?

it is such an intermittent issue that it's not really possible to start counting seconds. it feels like about 30 seconds every time and does get resolved if you completely close the site on all tabs.

Is it a complete non-response from the server until the 30 seconds are up and then everything comes, or is it a partial response and only waiting on some elements, e.g. stylesheet hasn't loaded for 30 seconds, waiting on pictures, elements like that.

I've been on a lot since the upgrade and I don't think I've experienced this (Tor and Tor browser). I'll start browsing with Developer tools open and keep an eye out for it. Maybe I can catch a log if it happens.

EDIT:
I double checked to see if TOR supported HTTP2 and I found a reference that it used to be disabled but I think that's outdated as I just checked about:config and looks good to me:

non-response. identical to a silent packet drop.
Site works for me fine with HTTP2 disabled or enabled regardless fwiw, (cache was cleared).

I'll leave dev tools open and see if I can catch anything but maybe doesn't occur on Firefox family? Everything's been fine for me.
 
Load times for me feel like the same, sometimes it loads fast, other times it's ungodly slow and will take a minute plus to load. Probably a known issue though, but if it isn't, I use Firefox Private Browsing on Windows 10.

actually i'm pretty sure it's just the HTTP2 thing. also right now it's running fine so i assume you did something with your wizard hands to fix it while i typed this out. if not, i'll post again
 
when you say "feels the same" you really to specify when. yesterday? this morning? like I am changing shit a lot so I don't know if you're complaining about the general usage overall this week or in the last 5 minutes.
 
The Gods of Irony were listening. Almost immediately after saying everything had been fine I got it. Instinctively with Batman-like reflexes I began counting: "1 elephant... 2 elephant..." and lo and behold it came to 30 elephants. I had the log open and the specific initial request to the /happenings/ forum was blocked. For the time you can see below:

1752853537236.webp

Once that block expired, the page and all the css and images and js and everything, all came rushing down.

All I could see in the log was this:
Content-Security-Policy: The page’s settings blocked the loading of a resource (media-src) at data: because it violates the following directive: “media-src 'self' https://uploads.kiwifarmsaaf4t2h7gc3dfc5ojhmqruw2nit3uejrpiagrxeuxiyxcyd.onion https://no-cookie.kiwifarmsaaf4t2h7gc3dfc5ojhmqruw2nit3uejrpiagrxeuxiyxcyd.onion”

Having a poke and seeing if I can understand more detail of what happened from my end.

EDIT: I checked and the console error occurs on every page load, blocked or not.

EDIT EDIT: Blocked can relate to the number of simultaneous network connections to a single server. HTTPS2 is all about pooling connections... I wonder.
