Derived feeds stopped updating a week ago

Open RReverser opened this issue 1 year ago • 7 comments

At least couple of feeds derived from Contrails stopped updating a week ago, about when Bluesky went public:

  • https://bsky.app/profile/did:plc:pkzt5mk76dc3fnd7w7l7veyr/feed/webassembly
  • https://bsky.app/profile/did:plc:tb5q5hwakt3fczz4smodkqhj/feed/ffxiv

There are no errors in Cloudflare dashboard - it still seems to be fetching search results as expected, but the feeds are stuck. Redeploying doesn't help either.

The feeds are completely broken now, returning internal server error. I guess the search API got removed or something.

Apologies - I don't have a timeframe on a fix yet. I recommend Skyfeed in the interim or as a replacement.

That seems like a client? If so, probably doesn't work as a replacement as I'm a maintainer of a feed for other users rather than building it to read myself.

You can build feeds and host them there, or here's the open source project which backs the hosted version

Ah thanks, I'll take a deeper look.

Do they allow to reuse same feed ID so that the feed doesn't lose existing followers or would I need to recreate from scratch?

Tried to fix this myself. Migrating to app.bsky.feed.searchPosts with authentication was pretty easy, but the cursor management in the codebase is quite complicated and not documented, so I keep messing it up :( Probably going to give up for now.
