Update: The maintenance has been completed!

Welcome to 0.18.1! Hopefully you'll notice some much needed UI tweaks as well as several performance optimizations.

I am still going through things and making sure everything looks good, but so far, I have not detected any major issues (fingers crossed). If you do have any problems, please comment below!

Original annoucenemnt below:


0.18.1 is coming!

As I mentioned in a previous post, this upgrade will require brief downtime. I will try to keep it as short as possible, but I can't guarantee an exact window, so if you really can't wait for lemm.ee to be back online, then the best advice I can give is to check back every 5 minutes or so.

As with any update, please be prepared for unexpected side-effects. If we find any major issues, then we can always roll back to good old 0.17.4. If we just find some minor issues, then most likely the overall experience will still be better on 0.18.1, so in that case we stay on 0.18.1 and try to get any potential issues fixed in 0.18.2. In either case, if you see anything weird after the upgrade, please report in the comments!

Thank you for being so diligent about upgrading! It looks good everywhere except on Firefox nightly on Windows 11. It looks good on FF Nightly on Android, looks good on Jerboa, Connect & liftoff, looks good on Edge and Chrome on Windows 11, but on Firefox nightly it doesn't have any content and I can't log in or out without restarting the browser. I would upload a screenshot, but I get a JSON error when I try that.

You can use an external image hosting site like Imgur to upload the screenshot. The JSON error happens because lemm.ee has a 100 KB size limit for image uploads.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago

Yeah, I think that error message should be clarified ^^

100KB. I thought it was 300 KB. Thank you. It'll be late tomorrow before I have access to that machine again. I'll upload it if there's still an issue

I just noticed your username. Haha.

Hey! I have deployed a fix for content not appearing, please check and let me know if it looks any better for you.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Unfortunately, there's no change. I finally got a screenshot up.

Thank you so much for working SO much on lemm.ee! You're a fantastic sysadmin.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Hmm, that's unfortunate.. Could you also take a screenshot of what the console in your developer tools looks like on lemm.ee? Here's a general guide on how to access the console: https://balsamiq.com/support/faqs/browserconsole/#google-chrome

I've got to learn to pay more attention to the notifications bell in Lemmy.

The console says Uncaught (in promise) Error: Cannot find module './es-PR' a https://lemm.ee/static/2402446/js/client.js:1

I do have some settings in Spanish. That's apparently the language code for Puerto Rican Spanish. In Lemm.ee, I had Undetermined, English & Spanish selected. I de-selected Spanish, but still get the same error in the console.

Edit: I Logged out in FF, deleted cookies for lemm.ee & restarted the browser, but the error is still there. I've also confirmed that the error exists in Linux.

I deleted Puerto Rican Spanish from the display languages in FF. That just changed the error to es-MX. I deleted Mexican Spanish from FF. Lemm.ee displayed correctly! 😁 I re-added the 2 Spanish settings, closed & re-opened FF and the site still displays correctly, so this issue is resolved.

Thank you so much for the detailed response, I believe I have managed to fix the issue. I will be deploying the fix on lemm.ee later tonight!

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

You're welcome! I work on a help desk among other I.T. related things, so I like thorough documentation for others & my future self.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

When you get a chance, could you check if the issue has been resolved for you? I deployed my fix a little while ago.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I'm guessing it has been resolved. The site loaded fully for me on Firefox on Linux a few minutes ago and has been loading on Firefox in Windows all day. I've got both es-PR and es-MX installed on Firefox.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Great to hear that, thank you for confirming!
