MOSTLY kidding. We have spun up our own cytube server so we are no longer beholden to the weirdo CHUD dev that owns cytu.be.

Join us at our (probably permanent unless something bad happens) new website: https://live.hexbear.net/

Movies will now be hosted here: https://live.hexbear.net/c/movies

and music here: https://live.hexbear.net/c/music

We literally spun this up in about 2 days so if there are any issues you run in to please create a thread on /c/feedback or reach out!

Note: You will need to create a new account for this. Neither your cytube login info or Hexbear login info will work for the new site!

    If anyone wants to talk database problems that's my original professional wheelhouse.

    Unless it's just some problem of Lemmy's ORM making shit queries.

      If you wish to contribute to site development please refer to here as our current Dev Volunteer Focus is to fork Lemmy again, this time deliberately not diverging too far from upstream so it's easier to maintain the patches and apply them on top of each new Lemmy release.

      This is a large undertaking. There is no timeline, but we expect it to be a while before the site is migrated over to the finished fork.

      We're still in the early stages, but the more people involved the sooner we can progress. Primarily, we need developers (Rust & TypeScript) and ops/infrastructure people. Please reach out to Layla via Matrix

      Ella via Matrix or me via Matrix If you're interested in helping out. If you need help setting matrix up, let me know.

      For more information contributing to the dev side of Hexbear please refer to this post

      yeah, I think they need someone to optimize the queries. from what I understand, the tech stack is the same as Lemmy's (on the backend) but a lot of stuff got rewritten, but without a deeper understanding of how diesel generates queries to run.
