At this moment, friendica.world is not stable. You can experience 504 or 503 errors, or just be unable to load the site.

This is being worked on. We'll keep track of the currently known issues in this post.

Database query tuning

One of the main issues at the moment is the database hanging with many inefficient queries running for minutes or even hours. Most of them are using an inefficient 'NOT IN' or similar construction. We've created an issue for that here: https://github.com/friendica/friendica/issues/14947

Also we've created an issue for many updates to a key-value table: https://github.com/friendica/friendica/issues/14948

Update 30-06-2025

The beforementioned issues were closed, we'll upgrade to 2025.07-RC in order to get the latest fixes and do troubleshooting from there. We'll send the slow qeury logs to the devs.

Rooting for you! Friendica is by far my preferred way of accessing the Fediverse – and it seems .world is the largest European server on the whole platform, so I really need it to work, aaaaa

Thanks! We're doing our best. But we also need the github issues solved by the devs. Or others with programming skills

I really like the local feed! I miss it already.

My instance only has 387 users, but these queries plague mine as well, locking tables for very long times, causing huge stalls.

@Jerry In the RC/Develop there is the fix that changes one of the ugly queries. Also it contains a coding to prevent executing long queries when another long query is running.

This is great! Can't wait for the new release! Thanks.

Are there some other friendica based sites experiencing similar problems ?

[–] ruud@lemmy.world 1 points 2 weeks ago

Not really, there are no Friendica sites with this many users...
