Ah! Much appreciated! I updated my Ozone image just now and stuff started working again.

Pretty relieved to realise my AWS credit doesn't expire until September next year (and that I've only used Β£2k of the Β£5k from the ATProto grant), that gives me a good few months to get XBlock onto stable local infra. I think if I can get Redis and Ozone back locally it'll be sustainable.

Finally upgrading some infra π
I did it. I finally bought a new graphics card.

Continuing to have intermittent connectivity issues with our London datacentre (Aendra's flat)
Service update: we had a localised network outage earlier so it might take awhile for the inference server to catch up with backlog

Service update: I've figured out why Ozone isn't accepting appeals, apparently there was a lexicon change or something which meant we had to explicitly configure it to accept appeals and not just reports.
Appealing a label should work now, sorry that took so long to fix!

There is an issue with appeals not submitting properly, I'm investigating that today. I hoped it would be as simple as restarting Ozone but alas nothing in life is that easy.

Yeah, sorry about that. π There's been a lot of UI drift lately and we really need to train another iteration of the model soon.

Open to feedback: our moderation efforts have really slowed down so it's taking longer than it should to action appeals (apologies!).
I'm thinking, should the appeals process be semi-automated? I've refrained because it's somewhat open to abuse but I suspect it would help more than hinder.

The Ozone instance appears to be struggling, please bear with me as I figure out what's up

There's been a lot of UI drift lately so it's probably time to retrain the model, I've noticed it's been really bad at labelling Bluesky screenshots as Twitter recently.
I'm juggling a half dozen deadlines right now but I'll try to do that sometime in the next while, please bear with me.

The queue was indeed the issue, there's a 4M post backlog (likely from that week it was down) and newer posts were being put at the very end so by the time a post is processed it's super old and everyone's seen it already. π
I've switched it to process newer posts first so hopefully that'll help! π€πΌ

Restarted the auto-labelling process and am running into issues with the Redis queue, it seems stable now but will investigate further later.
