@ashfurrow hi! just a heads up, i may have discovered a bug: searching for "@xyz" (include double quotes) 500s. can replace xyz with anything; doesn't need to be an existing user.

i don't know if this is a misconfiguration, or a bug in your fork, or in upstream, or just transient, so i figured i'd nudge you before i filed a github issue anywhere.

thanks for running this instance! :hugops:

@fluffy @ben @beesbuzz.biz nope, no recent bridgy fed changes. it definitely does make the fediverse think your site is an activitypub/mastodon instance, which will trigger requests like these, but that’s always been true. more details: https://github.com/snarfed/bridgy-fed/issues/38

more testing. hi @beesbuzz.biz @realize.be @miklb.com !

testing @-mentions with https://fed.brid.gy/. hi @snarfed.org!

@mdbraber good find! it's actually been just ~$800/yr for the last couple years, and current run rate is down to ~$450/yr.

regardless, if you run it yourself for just your own accounts, it should fit entirely within app engine's free tier. you'd need a few config tweaks, specifically reverting https://github.com/snarfed/bridgy/commit/b35e553a90534a132a1fdf8f167b1714b2bbde2f . background in https://github.com/snarfed/bridgy/issues/578#issuecomment-376233546

@mdbraber @aaronpk definitely doable! a couple people have done it before. most of the work will be generating the silo API app credentials you need and putting them into the right files in your local repo: https://github.com/snarfed/oauth-dropins/blob/master/oauth_dropins/appengine_config.py#L40-L83 . then just sign up for google cloud, create an app engine app, and deploy!
