Since nerdica.net collapsed, I was searching for a new Friendica instance. I've finally found one.

@Shiri Bailem Yeah. They messed something up with their backups while updating Friendica or something like that. They couldn't manage to restore everything and gave up, sadly. But I'm glad I've found your server! π

@Charline yeah, these databases get huge and it becomes a lot harder to restore. a month or two ago I lost a few days to a database crash, this morning's database backup was 4GB. It takes like half an hour to start the database if it's not a clean shutdown (and about as much time to cleanly shut down).
It's kinda a nightmare lol

* Latest Posts - Sorted by most recently received by the server first
* Latest Creation - Sorted by their creation date first (we might receive them hours, days, some rare cases even months after they were created)
* Latest Activity - Sorted by the most recent comment or receive date
The whole receive date thing is a quirk of the fediverse, when something is received late it usually means it was referenced recently (liked or commented) by someone on another server that's being watched by this server (either directly followed or in the other server's public feed) or because there was a delay in just receiving it from the other server.
You'll see this on posts in your feed like this "33 minutes ago (Received 21 minutes ago)" when there's a significant difference between the times. The example being the post took 12 minutes between being created and it actually being pulled in by the server.
