#metabrainz

really sorry

Hi Eveeyone!

I have been reviewing PRs as usual and managing Beta releases for our apps

It’s good to see that the iOS beta has around 85 users, great to see!

The android app is still figuring things out with YIM and Listens Submission. Great work from jasje and pranav!

We should get the app tested today and tomorrow once the Beta is available.

I think we have the yim rerun happening soon, so we should plan to ship the app stuff alongside

That’s pretty much it for me. Go zas!

Hey

Last week, I worked a bit on lb content resolver

Also on Picard, and Picard-plugins

I deployed last version of picard-website (sec fix)

I upgraded grafana but I had to roll back because current version has a bug impacting us, expecting a fix in next minor release

plus usual supervision, system upgrades, minor fixes, and user support.

Also, I had to restart solr on 2 instances, because they were using a lot of disk I/O (it happened in the past).

Ooh. Keen to hear about Picard-plugin updates, any time! Maybe worth a little share/tweet as well

BTW, upgrading this solr cloud is more and more needed, as the traffic keep increasing

fin. yvanzo?

Thanks

First of all, I’d like to apologize to rdswift for the bad time he had due to my unintentionally ambiguous previous review.

I conveyed some information about docs from memory but I wasn’t sure I remembered it all.

It wasn’t negatively addressed to him, quite the contrary.

It bothered me too so couldn’t do much either, some maintenance on MB website and mainly on MeB Tickets:

Jira security update, moving from Server to Data Center, user management and form apps, triage.

For tickets’ users, Jira’s 2024 roadmap features accessibility improvements and dark theme.

I’ll be back to MB search and server development this week.

Fin. Go atj?

Still on my list today: kellnerd, Pratha-Fish, jasje

Hello

nothing to report again I'm afraid, still busy with work but I'm trying to keep a very general eye on things. kellnerd?

Hi all!

Last week I was building a fully-fledged command-line tool on top of my LB client library.

It reads listens from JSON/JSONL files and the LB API, manipulates them and submits or deletes them via the API.

If you have Deno installed, you can safely try it out with `deno run https://deno.land/x/listenbrainz@v0.6.1/cli/elb... (it is sandboxed and asks for all permissions).

Apart from using elbisaur to correct my mismapped listens and submit listens from my portable player, I also did a few more minor LB PRs which came across my way.

And I was reading some travel guides about Delhi and the surrounding area :)

That's it, you can go jasje

hello everyone!

looks like he's disconnected

nvm

ayo

so last week was pretty fun

fixed some core issues related to scrobbling

in the new beta, you can disable if the app should automatically scrobble from any new player detected.

lots of ppl complained about it and experienced it myself so worth it

mayhem I am about to leave, however I'd suggest to do a pre-release to test the pipeline and to claim the name on pypi

apart from that

did some work on LB server

gcrkrause: in meeting right now, but I can do that tomorrow.

jasje: I was pleasantly surprised by that PR -- thanks!

looking forward to pranavkonidena_’s contributions in future

🙇‍♂️

thats it for me

theflash__: go

Hi guys!

thanks jasje for adding me :)

(and forgetting me 💀)

xD

working on yim on the iOS side

Please let me know you want to talk on the meeting next time :)

(but just continue for now)

working on the changes that akshaaatt suggested, and working on share feature

that's it , go fish

Hi all

yim ios is looking real smooth

🐟

!m iOS team

You're doing good work, iOS team!

nothing much from me this week. Just trying to survive my job and two colleges

Picked up a new hobby tho

it's called "recovering sleep lost on the weekdays"

fin 🐟

No one's left it seems

Yeah thanks everyone!

+1 to sleep

That's it for reviews for today

No, no, there's more

Next in line: Discord bridge which I think I noticed aerozol sneakily add without a responsible person?

Soooorry

I forgot to add in part 2 of the Discord bridge process - how does everyone feel about making the #metabrainz 2-way now?

As everyone has been (too well) behaved

We can still turn it off any time from the IRC side or the Discord side, if anything goes wonky

I haven't noticed any problems, that's for sure

I am in favor

I am in favor too :D

Okay, I will hit the switch, if anyone has a problem you have until the end of the meeting to tell me not to! Next thanks reo

lucifer, mayhem: IRC alternatives

right.

lucifer setup matrix/element and its working great. the matrix gateway is also doing really well.

atleast the fuckers will work on my computer

how are people feeling about this?

I understand it's 2003 all over again and we're going to... Enter the Matrix?

GROAN

i have a demo zulip instance fwiw

just the bridge is not working

Element works pretty well for me, but desktop notifications are duplicated.

wait what's element?

Chat client

maybe give people access to zulip to check it out, but don't spend more time on the bridge, lucifer ?

oh!

The reference client for Matrix.

is it on windoze? link?

sure can do

ok, so far I've not heard any objections to matrix, which is good.

ApeKattQuest: https://googlethatforyou.com?q=matrix%20element ;)

I found the IRC bridge very annoying to be honest

Liking how speedy all this is happening, and don’t see a downside to bridging as we are!

lets try zulip in the coming week, but can we see about making a decision next week?

!m lucifer

You're doing good work, lucifer!

monkey: "googling" the word "element" is kinda..

atj: I think it will be less annoying once most everyone is on matrix.

anyone can sign up

atj: what is annoying? The longer names/prefixes?

it seems less annoying with the [m] names now

atj: What was annoying?

!m lucifer for fixing that

You're doing good work, lucifer for fixing that!

mayhem: what's the plan? moving away from IRC once enough people are using matrix?

we can switch it fwiw

wait

make matrix the default username and add [irc] to irc users

zas: that is what is being proposed. but with the IRC bridge in place.

I hope we don't move away from IRC entirely, in any case

nooo

so that ApeKattQuest can stay on IRC.

Where "the main people" are doesn't matter much if it's communicated

+1

Hi guys so sorry I missed the meeting.. my progress for the last week was nothing significant was busy with the r and d expo … now am working on reusing the same components from feed in profile in LB app

Thanks lucifer, I will give Zulip a try too, but Matrix seems to be pretty satisfactory already.

is there anything we do with IRC we can't do with matrix?

i just found it discombobulating, having to parse nicks from a bots messages

zas: not that I know of.

atj: lucifer fixed that

yea, its much better now.

zas: We are mostly missing the logger bot for now.

oh, sorry I missed that

atj: fair enough. I missed that lucifer had shortened to [m] as well, which seems much better
