I helped in taking down a stray metric writer and debugging issues with dumps.
I briefly investigated an error from a DuckDuckGo browser extension that appeared in Sentry (from LB), and reported it to the maintainers, which promptly got a fix merged.

And finally I replaced Snyk with Dependabot for automated dependency updates on the BB repo, mainly because there's no way to automatically rebase Snyk PRs and they go stale about as fast as an avocado – always too fast.

That's it from my side for now. I'll start adding the reviews directly to you soon Freso !
So as some of you may or may not know, as of Tuesday/Wednesday Andrew "rasengan" Lee hostilely took over the freenode IRC network and the entire (now former) freenode staff resigned in response to this.
To the best of my experience and recollection, I can back up the story told by the rest of the ex-staffers.
2021-05-24 14422, 2021
Freso
Lee has already brought several new staff on board, seemingly mostly from Rizon (the *chan IRC network), some of which are known to maliciously leak IP addresses of users to scriptkiddies and to doxx users of the network. Additionally, what I assume to be staff on Lee’s payroll have tried to bribe people in the time leading up to this cataclysm with things like special statuses on the
2021-05-24 14425, 2021

network. (We don’t know if they have successfully bribed anyone in this manner.)

Hi currently i am working on setting up the database for the BookBrainz series entity. I have also written the ORM models for it and as well as the corresponding tests. Now i have started creating the routes and setting up the entity editor stuff for series entity. Thank you.

They’re also seemingly trying to remove network policies against hate speech and several current staff are associated with the alt right.
2021-05-24 14419, 2021
CatQuest
wat.
2021-05-24 14432, 2021
Freso
It is my personal (and admittedly biased) opinion that freenode is _not_ a safe network to be on.
2021-05-24 14452, 2021
Freso
I _STRONGLY_ advise that we move off freenode ASAP.
personally I am all for moving ot libera myself. what I want to avoid is doing this "half in one, half in the other" becase it's confusing
2021-05-24 14436, 2021
Freso
Wikimedia, postgresql, Python have all moved to Libera.Chat, which would also be my suggested new home.
2021-05-24 14447, 2021
Freso
CatQuest: Absolutely.
2021-05-24 14420, 2021

I have gone ahead and registered the MetaBrainz namespace(s) on Libera.Chat if we do decide to move there.
2021-05-24 14421, 2021

I would also strongly support a move, either to another good irc network or to a matrix room

irc pls
2021-05-24 14447, 2021

right. is there anyone who OBJECTS to this move?
2021-05-24 14455, 2021

because I doubt we'll hear any.
2021-05-24 14427, 2021

The one downside is that there is currently no official Matrix bridge to Libera.Chat. (There will be a meeting between LC staff and Matrix.org people in about 2 hours where they hopefully will be able to hash things out… so _hopefully_ a Matrix bridge will be up this week. Hopefully. :x)
2021-05-24 14444, 2021
Mr_Monkey
I don't object, but I don't see a need for action right this instant. It may be good to have a good plan before moving and weigh our options more thoroughly.
2021-05-24 14414, 2021
_lucifer
we can wait a few days till the bridge comes up because i think many people use matrix to connect.
2021-05-24 14419, 2021

FWIW, being on the Libera.Chat network has the benefit of having a staff member who’s also a MeB team member (me). :)

well, all the steps to reserve our space have mostly been taken already.

i see and agree with that. Mr_Monkey but i strongly disliek having two networks upen liek this now
