You have no doubt noticed that federation is breaking again. I am painfully aware of it. The issue is with the symphony queue runner that processes incoming messages from other instances. Occasionally, the server receives a message that causes the queue runner to die. I have to manually remove the offending message out of rabbitmq. The message does not appear to be malicious, rather there is something malformed in an otherwise legit looking post that causes the queue to die. I am working with the mbin team to track down what it is about the messages that causes the problem, but sadly until I there is a fix, this is going to keep happening

Ah - that is what we’re here for. I know kbin has had a cloud of uncertainty around it. Did something recently happen on kbin.social?

Ernest made a post today, yes, but kbin.social has reached a point which demands a next level of administration (from both technical and non-technical perspectives). While I want that project to thrive, there is writing on the wall which unfortunately cannot be ignored.

Ernest's reply today to questions about his absence. Kbin hasn't been abandoned, just life getting in the way, with hope that it will improve shortly.
