   Hello World!
   This server is powered by the innovative Mitra engine https://codeberg.org/silverpill/mitra
   I didn't choose it right away, and tried several options until I settled on it.
   I had Hubzilla, Pixelfed and a few other federated engines in my hands. Each of them has mysterious bugs and flaws that I'm already tired of dealing with. I want to publish! To publish without the oversight of the Meta gendarmerie.
   My last “hope” of finding a quality php-based engine was Pixelfed. I love photography, and thought I could use it to post photos. Turns out the frontend and backend have inconsistency in limits. If you leave the default settings, it works. If you set it higher, the api server rejects the processing with error 429 and the progress spins endlessly on the screen....
   On top of that, the aggressive caching that is present in all “modern” php applications lead to ridiculous confusions. Horizon runs a bunch of processes, the number of which is not regulated through configuration, but it should. You have to give up 1GB of RAM just for the sake of having them just idle.
   I've had enough!
   So I applied Mitra and I liked it.
   Another very interesting engine is snac2 which is written in C https://codeberg.org/grunfink/snac2.
   I might try it in action in another domain.

     @suno Hello, I'm glad you liked it!

     I noticed some federation issues between my server and yours (though by now they seem to be gone). Did you have another fedi software installed there before mitra?

     >the media files attached to the message simply disappeared.

     It doesn't happen when I edit the message in mitra-web
     If you are using a different client, I suggest sending a bug report to them.
     Also, the list of supported clients can be found in README.md : https://codeberg.org/silverpill/mitra#supported-clients

     >I hope the cleanup will remove unrelated files from the filestore - because searching for it manually is almost a hopeless task. There are thousands of image files that are similar to each other.

     Yes, they are removed automatically.

     @silverpill I fixed the tags and edited the message that had errors - the media files attached to the message simply disappeared.
     This is clearly crazy behavior.
     If the content does not have a backup - it is lost.
     I hope the cleanup will remove unrelated files from the filestore - because searching for it manually is almost a hopeless task. There are thousands of image files that are similar to each other.
     😩🤦♂️

     @suno Tuba is currently not among supported clients, but I like it

     @suno What buttons you use the most? Perhaps it would be better to make image previews smaller?

     By the way, I implemented drag-n-drop in the development version of mitra-web. Meanwhile, you can copy-paste files into the text area (I completely forgot about this feature).

     @silverpill I looked at the metrics for editing the post.
     It turns out that a lot of time is wasted when there are a lot of pictures in the post - they extend the space between the top, where the whole text is, and the bottom, where the buttons are.
     You can eliminate time wasters if you leave the buttons in the post title, so that you don't have to scroll up and down the page.
     Thanks!

     >If the buttons are at the top, it don't need to do all this.

     I don't want to move the toolbar, but I think the client can auto-scroll to the top when you click Edit.

     >I have also noticed that if Tuba saves the post as HTML, then after redacting all the images may disappear. There are no visual differences between Markdown/HTML posts.

     Sounds like a Tuba bug

     >Bsky (ATP) is gaining momentum on anti-Musk protesters. Can we think of a cross-post for Bluesky?

     Mitra will not support Bluesky cross-posting, but you can use a bridge to communicate with its users https://fed.brid.gy/docs

     @silverpill
     For example, I use EDIT (in submenu), OK, CANCEL.
     And so, I
     1 . get to the post I need.
     2. I scroll to the end of the post and press EDIT.
     3. Scroll to the top.
     4. Edit the text and tags.
     5. Scroll to the bottom of the post and save.
     If the buttons are at the top, it don't need to do all this.

     I have also noticed that if Tuba saves the post as HTML, then after redacting all the images may disappear. There are no visual differences between Markdown/HTML posts.

     Yes, it would be reasonable to make a preview of 2,3,4 pics or even make Responsive the whole page.

     Bsky (ATP) is gaining momentum on anti-Musk protesters. Can we think of a cross-post for Bluesky?

     @suno I think Tuba may identify Mitra as Pleroma. Try again with Mitra 3.10.0, editing should work better now.

     Drag and drop is also available now in mitra-web 3.10.0.
