@StevenB @Darren Do you have the code for this on Github? This lets you submit podpings but it doesn't give any confirmation that it made it on the Hive blockchain.

I think adding something to watch the Hive blockchain for the posted podping would help. I was thinking of borrowing whatever tiles.podping.org is doing.

@alecksgates @StevenB Yeah I thought it was doing a Websocket thing on the tiles site.

@ericpp @StevenB

I mean, you can use spurlock's websocket if you want. I try to promote more decentralization.

@alecksgates @StevenB Isn't Hive HTTP/WebSocket based? I'll have to look into it more.

@ericpp @StevenB

Primarily JSON-RPC, which is over HTTP.

@ericpp @StevenB

I'm going to try to get the hive writer changes done tonight to help mitigate this for podping.cloud.

Ultimately we are going to try to get a non-Hive solution in place. I have a decent plan but I want to hear what @dave thinks about it first.

Unfortunately, the next few months are going to be very busy for me between work and moving states. And I'm just a volunteer with all this.

@alecksgates @StevenB @dave What was the Hive issue? I wonder if it's the same issue I ran into with my IRC bot a couple weeks ago.

I had to switch my list of endpoints because many of them were rejecting or failing on my requests.

@ericpp @StevenB @dave

We think it's just the list of endpoints. It hasn't been updated in 2 years. So I'm going to update the list and make it configurable.

Maybe have dave provide an endpoint of known good endpoints the user can opt-in to using.

@alecksgates @ericpp @StevenB Sorry, I'll get you a list quick. Just been covered up with day job and dishwasher went out, sewer line clogged, right after my transmission went out. [sigh]

It's been a ridiculous week.

@dave It's all good, I'm not waiting on you :)
On the bright side I know how to install a dishwasher now. And tomorrow morning I'll be learning how to use a drain line power auger. So, I'll have two new skills.
I've pulled/installed more transmissions in my life than any normal person should, so that one is just stress with no upside.
