I setup a new instance a week or two ago, and have some subscriptions to communities on lemmy.world
. The logs for the Lemmy process are currently showing a constant flood of warnings for what look like ordinary activity (likes, creates, undos, etc). Here are two recent entries:

Tailing the Docker logs is like watching a torrent of these warnings, and I’m worried about the stress its adding to my fairly meager VM. Any tips on how to debug this? I’m proficient with Rust, so I’m willing and able to jump into the code if it’ll help.
The video was recording a VM that had been tunnelled through to with ngrok, so the HTTP details were from that software’s ‘Inspect’ window.
(I don’t know how best to configure your server to ignore the errors, because Rust is too scary, ha ha).
Cool, I’ve been meaning to check out ngrok sometime. Looks really useful.
I don’t think there’s a way to filter out the problem since it appears to be an automatic warning due to an uncaught error. I have some ideas on a code fix now, and may submit a PR for it in the near future.
