Hey! I love the post and the ASCII theme of your site. I just want to say, thanks for all of the work you did on sponsorblockcast. It was a great tool that I happily used for a long time.
Thank you!

I haven't tested on Windows yet, but releases have Windows downloads! Did you get an error when you ran it?
I love sponsorblockcast, but I had the same exact issue. In my case, sponsorblockcast usually uses 10% CPU, but would sometimes start using more and more. I've been testing CastSponsorSkip pretty thoroughly and haven't been able to get it to spike above 1-2% CPU yet!
Thank you! I have to admit, it's really satisfying seeing sponsored segments get skipped. Would definitely recommend!
That's just the default, and I assume it's mainly to make it easier for new users to start using Lemmy. It lets you change to any other instance during login.
+1 for Authentik! It definitely has a steep learning curve, but once you get comfortable with it, it's really versatile. The integration docs have tons of walkthroughs for setting up Authentik with different apps which is epecially helpful when getting started.
You're welcome!
You're welcome! Makes sense. They're somehow so similar yet so different lol
Definitely! I'm hosting in Kubernetes so I won't post the full thing, but here's the actual command that I run hourly. Make sure to replace the values for database, username, and password.
PGPASSWORD=password psql --dbname=database --username=username --command="DELETE FROM activity WHERE published < NOW() - INTERVAL '3 days';"
Sure! My script will look a little different since I'm hosting Lemmy in Kubernetes, but basically you will want to run the following command hourly. Make sure to replace the values for database, username, and password.
PGPASSWORD=password psql --dbname=database --username=username --command="DELETE FROM activity WHERE published < NOW() - INTERVAL '3 days';"
The activity table is also used to deduplicate incoming federation data, so instead of truncating it, I'd suggest deleting rows after a certain amount of time.
For my personal instance, I set up a cron to delete entries older than 3 days, and my db is only ~500MB with a few weeks of content! I also haven't seen any duplicated posts or comments. Even with Lemmy's retries, 3 days seems to be long enough before dropping rows from that table.

Haha I'm glad to hear it's working for you! The goal is to get rid of all of that junk so you don't get distracted from the content, segue and all.
