Looking for temp/humidity sensors that can be wall-powered
  • That was the first one I tried. Sounded fantastic in theory, didn't work out for shit. For some reason the sensor dropped out constantly. The USB PSU bottom was nice though, no batteries to change.

    How to properly decommission a Lemmy instance?

    As previously discussed here https://feddit.de/post/1285536 , I am trying to properly decommission my private instance. My main issue: even though I unsubscribed from all communities, the server still gets a lot of POST requests with likes, comments, etc. So how do I tell all the instances to stop sending announcements? I also don't want to go the hacky way of bogus DNS entries, as that won't be good for the other instances. This also continues if I simply shut down the stack, just resulting in a lot of 404s.

    Is there a manual for this I missed in all the googling?

    So how do I decommission a Lemmy instance properly?

    While it was an interesting and sometimes confusing experience setting up and running my own Lemmy instance (looking at you, 20 character limit on federation URL), I think it's not worth it.

    Now the time has come to decommission the service, is there a proper way to do that? I don't mean the local part, that's on docker and gone with 3 lines of bash input. I mean the overall process. How do I tell other instances that mine won't be available any longer? I noticed a constant stream of federation pushes, even with everything deleted and purged. Shutting down the instance won't help either, the requests will simply 404 then, but won't stop, which in itself is only logical. Has anyone done this before and could shed some light on this situation?

    Edit: So I played around with the logs some more, there seemed to be an issue with communities that are on "subscription pending". I restored an older database which had all the entries, removed any federation restrictions and tried again from scratch, leaving and joining again until all communities were properly subscribed to.

    Then:

    • Unsubscribe
    • Remove
    • Purge

    Just to be sure the entries are gone. As of 15 minutes ago, Traefik hasn't logged a single connection to my instance.

    Edit2:

    Turns out that wasn't it. My instance is on 0.17.4, and even with every community unsubscribed and purged, I'm being hammered by lemmy.world activity_pub events. The formatting is also different, I think that's because they moved to the 0.18 RC stage. So it looks like something somewhere didn't get the unsubscribe announcement.

    Edit 3:

    So I tried moving to 0.18-RC. Which now means lemmy.world is trying to push the inbox to the frontend? WTH...

    Looking for temp/humidity sensors that can be wall-powered

    After running HA for 2 years and tinkering with the stuff I already had, it was time to extend the little machine via Zigbee. I got an Aqara Temp/Humidity/Pressure sensor, which in itself works fine. It just chewed through 30% of battery in 4 days. Now that might be an issue with placement and signal strength (basement through 2 floors), but it doesn't bode well unless it "levels out" at some point.

    Which brings me to my actual question: does anyone know any such sensors that are wall-powered in any way? Something that can be plugged in and "forgotten" about?
