Empty main feed (piefed.social)

Hi all, I think I am facing some bug. My main feed is empty whatever I try to filter. If I click on specific feed that I follow, I see the posts there. Please, help!

EDIT: So it's photon of piefed.social that stopped to work :(

Hi :)

Maybe it's the language settings. Can you go to settings, then check english ?

    Tried that, didn't help. I also cleared cookies and cache, logged in again, no change. English stayed as set language.

    I guess you also tried with language none and another UI ? That's outside my knowledge.

    Meanwhile, you can give us detail :

    • piefed instance
    • subcribed feed
    • and the ui software : Blorp ? Photon ?

    Sorry for the inconvenience, i hope someone will help you :)

    Blorp dev here. Did some investigating and it looks like Photon is asking PieFed for page 0 of posts. I'm not sure how technical you are, sorry if this is duh, but programmers like to start counting things from 0. PieFed however doesn't seem to like this.

    Here's what I think is happening:

    • Photo asks for page 0 of posts
    • PieFed says "there are no posts at page 0"
    • Photon thinks if page 0 is empty, then there is no page 1

    What should happen:

    • Photo should ask for page 1 of posts
    • PieFed will respond "there are 25 posts on page 1"
    • Photon says page 1 is full so page 2 must have content
    • Photon then asks PieFed for page 2 of posts
    • ...etc until we run out of pages of posts

    In other words, page 0 is a short circuit that prevents the entire feed from loading

    Or maybe we wanna fix this at the API level? @rimu@piefed.social @wjs018@piefed.social

    This seems like it was broken in a recent update since this issue just popped up (i think)
