In-reply-to » Found out today, that the registrar that I use Only Domains's AU front door is DOWN. That is https://onlydomains.com.au

At this point I’m thinking of migrating away from OnlyDomains and choosing a different registrar. If OnlyDomains can’t even do something as simple as maintain their own fucking domain name, how am I supposed to trust them as a service/registrar of my domains?! 🤔 – Not only that, but recently they’ve put all their domain prices up too on a bunch of TLD(s).

@bender@twtxt.net That ain’t the half of it. The worst part is, they (support) don’t give a crap, seem to be poorly trained in “incident management” and you can’t even tell anyone at the company about this (that cares) 🤦‍♂️

Not only that, but how embarrassing is it for a domain registrar to not be able to get domain management right? Support tell me things like:

We only have onlydomains.com we don’t use onlydomains.com.au

To which I reply:

No, you are wrong. I’ve been a very long-term customer and your portal has always been available on both domains. You don’t know your own company’s history.

In-reply-to » Fixed a thing in the flutter client tonight, it now stores the username \ password and server url.. Which is a nice feature, no need to copy\paste anymore to log in.

@stigatle@yarn.stigatle.no Is saving the password a good idea security-wise? Or do you save/load it from the user’s password manager using an API to do so? 🤔

@slashdot@feeds.twtxt.net Well no shit! But not only “agile” but this stupid over-uses thing called “micro services” 🤦‍♂️

In-reply-to » @bender The status of the disks and the backup jobs from Scrutiny and Healthchecks respectively. Green means everything is fine, red or orange means it needs my attention.

That’s scrutiny is definitely something I wanna look at running. 👌

@mckinley@twtxt.net oh I see! Yeah, health checks looks like something I wouldn’t have any need to run myself or use because most of my background jobs or tasks run in my swarm cluster anyway and I don’t really have that many background or cron type jobs in the first place.

In-reply-to » Okay. The house is properly cleaned up. There are 77 users on this pod, 34 inactive and 12 active. That's a good effort I think. Maybe some of those folks that haven't been around for a while, but were pretty decent folks to talk to and interact with may come back. For example @offgridliving 😅

Fixed!

@bender@twtxt.net Oh! 🤔 Hmmm I’d better check the data directory. Not sure what happened there 😢

In-reply-to » So, the client now has a lot of features. I will work on fixing the @ mentions tomorow, making it like this: @username in bold. Will also see if I can fix so that users already mention in a post you click 'reply' on is also put into the status text field. When these things are sorted the flutter version has the same features as the GTK4 client. I'm quite pleased with the result of the conversion to flutter so far. Finally got motivated to work with it, which feels good.

@stigatle@yarn.stigatle.no very nice 👌

In-reply-to » @prologic, what makes your mention of my handle show differently like this?

@bender@twtxt.net Hmm none whatsoever in the feed they are teh same:

2024-08-03T23:24:20Z	(#iztis3a) @<bender https://twtxt.net/user/bender/twtxt.txt> LOL 🤣
2024-08-03T23:24:54Z	(#thfnzga) @<bender https://twtxt.net/user/bender/twtxt.txt> LOL 🤣

However just noticed both of these now render the same again, weird 🤔

In-reply-to » @lyse As far as I know, they're still visible in the Web UI. Although, in the mobile app and youtube.com, I believe it tells you that the video isn't available without having to click on it. They don't tell you that in the RSS feed, and I agree; it gets annoying.

It’s also (expectedly) in the feed file on disk:

2024-08-04T21:22:05+10:00	[foo][foo=][foo][foo=]

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org Holy fucking shit! You’re right! You got me out of bed for this one, I spun my local dev instance and entered a Twt with [foo] and ended up with [foo][foo=][foo][foo=] wut da actual fuq?! 🤔

In-reply-to » Hmm I see it! It's so obvious 🤦‍♂️ I smell an attack of some kind.

The reason I think this is some kind of attack is based on the repeated content and some of its uniqueness 🤔 This is so uncharacteristic if both victims 🤔
