@lemmy.worldAs you may have noticed, the crawler at https://lemmyverse.net isn't picking up anything from instances on versions 0.19.4 or 0.19.5.
The Issue itself is easily fixed, and there's already a PR for it from lemm.ee's admin, but there's been no response from the lemmyverse developer.
Does anyway have any other ways of contacting him?
If this continues (I realise 2 weeks isn't that long), is anyone interested in forking the code and hosting it on a new domain?
Thanks.
For anyone unaware, a community's outbox typically contains the last 50 or so Post Announcements - it is retrieved when you are the first person to find a community on a remote instance. It also seems to be fetched whenever an community on a remote instance realizes it's out of sync with the community on its host instance.
Compare:
curl --header 'accept: application/json' https://lemmy.world/c/memes | jq -r .outbox
=> https://lemmy.world/c/memes/outbox
curl --header 'accept: application/json' https://lemmy.world/c/memes/outbox | jq .
{
"error": "unknown",
"message": "Record not found"
}
with
curl --header 'accept: application/json' https://lemmy.world/c/linuxmemes | jq -r .outbox
=> https://lemmy.world/c/linuxmemes/outbox
curl --header 'accept: application/json' https://lemmy.world/c/linuxmemes/outbox | jq .orderedItems[0]
{
"id": "https://lemmy.world/activities/announce/create/0223f939-aafc-4215-9c20-a3460c967f63"
... (the rest of the most recent post from linux memes)
}
(I came across this randomly, so I don't know if 'memes' is the only community missing an outbox. Others I've tried have been OK though)
