I just released v2.3.0 of Ktistec. It fixes a few bugs introduced in the previous release. In particular, it handles a case I've observed a few times in production where the fetching of followed content hangs. The fix adds a monitor that periodically checks for "running" tasks without a backing fiber and sets socket timeouts to ensure requests eventually terminate (I believe the latter actually fixes the problem, but belts and suspenders...)

on a separate note, why am i discovering all of the things that don’t work with #ktistec while i am away!?! fetching just stopped for a few hashtags I follow…!
I am actually really happy about how my mobile-tweaks for #ktistec turned out. There was a lot of #CSS hacking involved, but I am pretty happy with the results :)
Here's a little video of how it looks:

I just released v2.2.0 of Ktistec. A lot of code was written but the main user-visible change is streaming timeline updates to the web client using server-sent events. The back-end pub/sub framework will also make it easier to decouple some components down the road.
I want a visual indicator that new posts are in my timeline. I appreciate that not everyone feels the same way—if there's interest I may make it switchable.
And now, off to #worldcon!

I just released v2.0.0 of ktistec. It's just bug fixes on top of the last prerelease, but it's much improved over v1.0.0. The README and CHANGELOG have more detail but features and improvements include:
- Content filtering
- Support for more ActivityPub object types
- Support for following threads, hashtags and mentions
- Collection and presentation of server performance metrics
- Setting the application name in the webmanifest (thanks JayVii)
- Mastodon-compatible user profile metadata (thanks relistan)
- Links to the pages of remote actors (thanks vrthra)
- Support for handling 303s in searches (thanks winks)
- Automatic database backups
I'm working on user experience enhancements for the next release: I've just finished streaming updates to the front-end—no more refreshing the page to see if you have new posts in your timeline (and new notifications).

the last few days are more in line with what i expect. there is a (temporary) bump in memory, but that corresponds to a large increase in traffic.
Started working on some tiny #ktistec end-user hacks: https://src.jayvii.de/pub/ktistec-tweaks
For now only a user #CSS theme i dupped "purple-ish": https://src.jayvii.de/pub/ktistec-tweaks/file/css/purpleish.css.html
Maybe more to come in the future. Or not, we'll see :)

for reasons i don't understand, some restarts of epiktistes result in huge memory usage spikes—reported both by the garbage collector and the operating system. what's interesting is heap size and free memory move roughly in tandem (though the difference isn't constant), which implies that there is free memory, but perhaps it's too fragmented to be useful?
a restart typically fixes the problem...
