Symfony
As always, we will start with the official news from Symfony. Highlight -> “This week, the upcoming Symfony 6.3 version added support for 103 status code (Early Hints), updated the service container builder to use PHP weak references, and added three new components: Webhook and RemoteEvent and a Scheduler component. Lastly, Symfony announced a new Symfony conference in Berlin (October 5-6, 2023).“

Stitcher.io is not a fan of how PHP is managed by a large committee and thinks it would be better off with a benevolent dictator.
Limited by committee
The problem with benevolent dictators (open source or not) is that they are few and far between, and are likely to devolve into c^nts. Just ask Twitter employees and the doormat citizens of Russia or China. The real solution is more democracy.

Question on Friendica daemon configuration
Running a daemon for the php processes, I assumed I could disable the cron job after this but the admin interface complains about the lack of a running cron job since the time it was last ran.
It seems like things are happening via the front end with the cron job off.
Should I ignore the warning or run both?

Weekly review of Symfony and PHP development news. 3/10/23
Welcome to this week's Symfony Station highlights. It's your review of the essential news in the Symfony and PHP development communities focusing on protecting democracy. We also cover the Fediverse.
Please take your time and enjoy the items most relevant and valuable to you. There is a good bit of Drupal content this week, including the featured item.
Thanks to Javier Eguiluz and Symfony for sharing our latest communiqué in their Week of Symfony.

I am tooting my own horn this week as I have published my first “opinion” piece. It examines if Drupal has a path to growth.
“Idiots have been claiming PHP is dead for years. Guess what? It’s not dying. It’s growing and mainly via WordPress and outside the United States. With Drupal, not so much.
This piece will cover Drupal’s strengths and weaknesses as I see them affecting its growth. And when I talk about growth, I mean the total number of Drupal users, not the profits of companies basing their businesses on Drupal.
Then I will look at three paths its future could take. Those of what I want, what could happen, and what will probably happen.”

•From my experience, I can report that I am overjoyed when a message queue is at 0.
However, the reality is different.
Over time, your instance networks with others, which means that every now and then an instance is offline or unavailable.
If everything goes well, my queues are around 50 incoming and outgoing.
They would be 0, but as I said, there is always something wrong with some instance.
Depending on your hardware, the queue can sometimes rise to 3000 or more during contact discovery. With a slow system, it can even reach 20000 or 50000.
Over time, however, the queue should decrease again.
In the settings of the Contact-Discovery you can define the time between new requests in days. Anything between 3 (fast system) and 14 (rather slow system) is perfectly fine.
