Hi all, I think I am facing some bug. My main feed is empty whatever I try to filter. If I click on specific feed that I follow, I see the posts there. Please, help!

EDIT: So it's photon of piefed.social that stopped to work :(

Hi :)

Maybe it's the language settings. Can you go to settings, then check english ?

Tried that, didn't help. I also cleared cookies and cache, logged in again, no change. English stayed as set language.

It worked well for months. Last time I used piefed was 2-3 days ago. I have more than 50 subscriptions. But feed is empty.

I guess you also tried with language none and another UI ? That's outside my knowledge.

Meanwhile, you can give us detail :

• piefed instance
• subcribed feed
• and the ui software : Blorp ? Photon ?

Sorry for the inconvenience, i hope someone will help you :)

It's piefed.social. just figured out that photon does not work. But it used to. So p.piefed.social is broken :(

Thank anyway for your report maybe it is related to feed API. :)

Sorry about that, I'll fix it soon.

In the mean time, use https://b.piefed.social

I've been having blocked comms showing up in apps for the past day or so. The web version seems to be fine. I wonder if these could be related somehow

Thanks. Is that Blorp?

Blorp dev here. Did some investigating and it looks like Photon is asking PieFed for page 0 of posts. I'm not sure how technical you are, sorry if this is duh, but programmers like to start counting things from 0. PieFed however doesn't seem to like this.

Here's what I think is happening:

• Photo asks for page 0 of posts
• PieFed says "there are no posts at page 0"
• Photon thinks if page 0 is empty, then there is no page 1

What should happen:

• Photo should ask for page 1 of posts
• PieFed will respond "there are 25 posts on page 1"
• Photon says page 1 is full so page 2 must have content
• Photon then asks PieFed for page 2 of posts
• ...etc until we run out of pages of posts

In other words, page 0 is a short circuit that prevents the entire feed from loading

Or maybe we wanna fix this at the API level? @rimu@piefed.social @wjs018@piefed.social

Just wanna confirm does post pagination start at page 0 or page 1? Looks like photon starts at 0 but Blorp assumes PieFed starts at page 1. An API update should unblock Photon, but I don’t see a way around fixing Photon or Blorp if we don’t all agree on which page is first.

This seems like it was broken in a recent update since this issue just popped up (i think)

thanks for letting me know, i fixed the problem

Photon support for piefed.social is now fixed! Thanks yall!

Yes it starts at 1.

I've put in a PR to photon https://github.com/Xyphyn/photon/pull/723 and a temporary hack into PieFed that checks the referrer for 'p.piefed.social' and works around it.

Yes, that's Blorp.

https://p.piefed.social works now.

Thank for the explanation, it was clear. So it was an address problem :)

Cool
