Unfortunately, the best method by far for identifying bad components is "have a spare you can try instead" or "take suspect parts and swap them into a known-good system."
I.E. test your parts.
Memory and hard drive tests are the first thing you should run, for almost any problem, just because they're so low-effort. Swap them into a separate system to test, if possible, and definitely make sure you're running tests from a USB stick or CD-ROM, to help eliminate as many variables as you can.
PSU is a good bet after those, for intermittent problems, since the ENTIRE rest of the computer relies on it, and unreliable power can cause really weird and unpredictable failures. But there really isn't much you can do to TEST a PSU without buying an electronic load tester that's gonna cost you more than a new PSU itself. If you don't have anyone to borrow from, a spare PSU is really a solid investment.
Fantastic work and fantastic results. Thank you for all your effort!
or the equipment os designed horribly
I find this entirely believable. There's a LOT of equipment out there designed for profit over user experience.
But you're right, it's not really worth speculating over.
Thank you for your time and effort. Best instance earns its status yet again. Happy New Year.
A notice would have been nice, cause there was a bit of downtime, and then a few hours more of instability after coming back up.
However, as of now, for me, all the serious issues are resolved by 0.19.1, and the server performance in general seems to be a lot better than before" although there are still occasional timeouts in Jerboa.
Whatever the admin(s) did, it was effective and welcome. If you see this, thanks for your time and effort!
I have been experiencing this as well. On Jerboa, about 50% of all queries to retrieve posts take over 7 seconds, and time out.
How can you tell what version an instance is on?
Yes, it's server-dependent, and lemm.ee is the server giving me a lot of trouble the never used to.
Lol, "the normal amount", did you normally have those kinds of errors, before 0.19? I sure didn't.
How's it performing for you? Are you having the same issues as I am? I get a loooooooot of "socket timeout" and "posts failed loading" errors. Also, the "Show Read Posts" setting no longer works at all, even on the website.
The version on the play store is not current, or at least, it wasn't when I last checked. You need at least 0.51, I think. If the play store is still out-of-date, you can grab the latest and manually install it from here.
This one seems to be specific to lemm.ee, other instances on 0.19 don't have this problem.
Same. Confirmed through both Jerboa and the web UI.
I'll be in bed, upgrade away.
a person who believes that their tastes in a particular area are superior to those of other people.
I.E. someone who rants about one thing being significantly worse than another, but provides examples of the two things that are basically indistinguishable from one another.
Like I said, maybe the actual video supports the point, these shrunken still screenshots do not.
It might be much more noticable as an actual video, or at the full 4K resolution, but posting these low-resolution still side-by-sides just makes the OP look like a snob.
This is the real answer in almost any scenario. Don't optimize without hard evidence.
