monkey I went through tons of carousels but only found the one implemented currently to be suitable for us.

mayhem: should we send text/html email or text/plain? it seems that its possible to send both parts in a single email and the email client can decide which version to show. html is preferred if available otherwise it fall backs to plain text.

lucifer: my import is still going strong. now on 2018. so it'll finish some time today
2021-12-15 34954, 2021
lucifer
ah nice.
2021-12-15 34933, 2021
CatQuest
honestly i think something went weird with the bit that made emails mandatory to submit listens (whne was that released?)
2021-12-15 34951, 2021
lucifer
1 Nov, 2021.
2021-12-15 34902, 2021
lucifer
oh! that might be it actually.
2021-12-15 34904, 2021
CatQuest
I was logged in and hadn't been logged out since before thne i assume
2021-12-15 34924, 2021
CatQuest
probably everyone should be force logged out and so they need to log back in
2021-12-15 34940, 2021
lucifer
iirc we did that.
2021-12-15 34946, 2021
CatQuest
i wasn't iirc
2021-12-15 34919, 2021
lucifer
did you have an email in MB previously?
2021-12-15 34930, 2021
CatQuest
ah, i didn't know you coudl reset the timestamp at wil. i'd have asked yo uto reset it to like 20th october instead :D
2021-12-15 34936, 2021
CatQuest
i've had it for ages
2021-12-15 34953, 2021
CatQuest
validated in.. idk 2018 or osmething
2021-12-15 34911, 2021
lucifer
its possible to reset the timestamp but i have to do it manually in the db. i had set it to 1st oct when i pinged yesterday.
2021-12-15 34921, 2021
CatQuest
yes
2021-12-15 34931, 2021
CatQuest
i wishi had logged out and bakc in first. well no matter
2021-12-15 34941, 2021
CatQuest
i didn't know you coudl do that :D
2021-12-15 34955, 2021
CatQuest
it's on page 24869 of 32673 now so
2021-12-15 34909, 2021
CatQuest
might be healty to reimport everything
2021-12-15 34912, 2021
lucifer
interesting, i think users who do not have an email may have an issue. i'll try to confirm that but if you have an email then regardless of login/logout it should work.
2021-12-15 34920, 2021
CatQuest
yes
2021-12-15 34942, 2021
CatQuest
i think the import still "works" but gives an error in network
2021-12-15 34904, 2021
CatQuest
so you keep trying withouth actually getting the 401 error with its very descriptive error
2021-12-15 34917, 2021
CatQuest
*explanation*
2021-12-15 34943, 2021
CatQuest
it was ind eed tihs errormessage that made me go "but what, i have an email, it's go ot bel inked to that whne logging in!" ok, let's try logging in and tne out
2021-12-15 34959, 2021
CatQuest
and that seems o have fixed it
2021-12-15 34920, 2021
lucifer
yes its possible that some network error is unhandled which then causes the importer to misbehave.
2021-12-15 34935, 2021
CatQuest
I'll ask if you can all wait with the yim thing until after my import finishes XD
2021-12-15 34906, 2021
lucifer
we import new to back iirc? so your 2021 listens shoudl already be in
2021-12-15 34937, 2021
CatQuest
from scratch seems not to be liek that. it started on like 2008 and is now on 2018
2021-12-15 34928, 2021
lucifer
we'll probably need another ~8 hrs at least anyways.
2021-12-15 34954, 2021
CatQuest
oh, it'll b in by then!
2021-12-15 34956, 2021
CatQuest
:D
2021-12-15 34957, 2021
lucifer
if we want to do full dumps and import those. import latest mb data etc.
2021-12-15 34906, 2021

good news lucifer
2021-12-15 34956, 2021
mayhem
Let's do both, I'd say.
2021-12-15 34955, 2021
lucifer
sounds good. looking at BU send mail, we'll probably need to update it to handle both parts or write a new send_mail in LB
2021-12-15 34910, 2021
mayhem
moooin!
2021-12-15 34936, 2021

I have generated the base data for the playlists shortly after midnight CET, so that should be done. time to make some playlists.

"Our family has been farming musical bits for your family for weeks. Come get your copy before Santa comes and steals them all. #confused"
2021-12-15 34931, 2021
mayhem thinks that should do it.
2021-12-15 34914, 2021
lucifer
👍, hyperlink copy to year in music page?
2021-12-15 34924, 2021
mayhem
yep!
2021-12-15 34934, 2021
mayhem starts crafting something more serious
2021-12-15 34913, 2021
akshaaatt
Do we want to keep analytics as to how many people opened our email or had their YIM generated?
2021-12-15 34915, 2021
mayhem
"ListenBrainz' very own retrospective on 2021 has just dropped: Check out your own Year in Music now!"
2021-12-15 34941, 2021
lucifer
imo no need for analytics.
2021-12-15 34952, 2021
mayhem
akshaaatt: we should limit that to checking the logs on who accesses their YIM. other things would be against our privacy policy.
2021-12-15 34902, 2021
akshaaatt
Okieee
2021-12-15 34947, 2021
akshaaatt
I am looking to work on improving the homepage for ListenBrainz after YIM is done so I think such stats would look good their
2021-12-15 34951, 2021
akshaaatt
There*
2021-12-15 34919, 2021
lucifer
how many users had their YIM generated is a count of db rows so need of analytics for that.
2021-12-15 34925, 2021
akshaaatt
Yuss
2021-12-15 34932, 2021
lucifer
what stats do you have in mind?
2021-12-15 34947, 2021
akshaaatt
How successful YIM was, the basic user stats and listens submitted(which we already have) and maybe adding some sorta stat as to how connected lb is to mb would be good
2021-12-15 34954, 2021
lucifer
all except the first sound good. for how successful YIM was i don't think users opening email/page cannot be considered a success anyways?
2021-12-15 34923, 2021
akshaaatt
Yeah right
2021-12-15 34920, 2021
mayhem
it would be nice to see how many people open their YIM.
2021-12-15 34906, 2021
akshaaatt
I think we need to prioritise all the features available on ListenBrainz and club them in a section in the homepage
2021-12-15 34931, 2021
akshaaatt
Example pins, recommendations, huesound, yim, listens, etc all should be told to the users that they exist
2021-12-15 34905, 2021
mayhem
hi!
2021-12-15 34925, 2021
mayhem
I wasn't proposing that we let users upload the content to us -- that is overall not a good idea.
2021-12-15 34934, 2021
akshaaatt
Okay!
2021-12-15 34907, 2021
mayhem
something we can think about in more detail next year.
i think the first error will go away with a supress. not sure about the second.
2021-12-15 34918, 2021
akshaaatt
I'm not sure about the second error of the import lucifer
2021-12-15 34945, 2021
akshaaatt
We need to finalize things for yim. I'm waiting for monkey to appear :)
2021-12-15 34923, 2021
lucifer
i see. its missing type declarations likely so it suggests to add @types/react-coverflow. npm doesn't have that package so will probably need some magic LB side.
2021-12-15 34901, 2021
akshaaatt
That library is also caduing some issues which I want to discuss. But it seems like our best shot at things rn
2021-12-15 34906, 2021
lucifer
is it fine if i comment this stuff for some time to try out the email stuff?
2021-12-15 34915, 2021
akshaaatt
Sure lucifer! Go ahead
