- it's been a rough couple hours for the firehose! it has been flapping around in volume and offset. the bsky app has been smoother because we are using an alternative internal relay (starting a couple days ago). 🧵
- we have thrown out our earlier plans for now, and have cut over the bsky.network public firehose endpoint to our alternative relay. we have rolled the cursor back about 4 hours of wall-time, and it is catching up to current. this is a new cursor sequence! 251476547 is a random recent seq
- if you are a firehose consumer, you'll need to update cursor to this new sequence space. you will probably see duplicate/overlapping events. there may be a few other bumps in there, like tooBig, and a spike from a couple PDS reconnects.Nov 22, 2024 01:07
