[Done] New try at upgrading to 0.18.1 July 1st 20:00 CET (lemmy.world)

We'll give the upgrade new try tomorrow. I've had some good input from admins of other instances, which are also gonna help troubleshoot during/after the upgrade.

Also there are newer RC versions with fixed issues.

Be aware that might we need to rollback again, posts posted between the upgrade and the rollback will be lost.

We see a huge rise in new user signups (duh.. it's July 1st) which also stresses the server. Let's hope the improvements in 0.18.1 will also help with that.

Godspeed. I really hope this is the one and the age of randomly redirecting to sports game threads will be over!

the age of randomly redirecting to sports game threads

Glad I wasn't the only one experiencing that.

It’s awesome to see some teamwork between server admins. Best of luck with the upgrade, hope it goes smoothly for you this time!

Pages loading slowly here and sometimes not loading content. Could be due to the number of new users.

Latest version of Jerboa on Google Play doesn't work with servers below 0.18;

For those who want to use Jerboa to access lemmy.world before the upgrade to 0.18.x happens, you can install a specific release from GitHub instead of Google Play. I found version 0.0.34-alpha to work (using it rn to post this). https://github.com/dessalines/jerboa/releases/tag/0.0.34

Edit: since the update is done, it's probably best to go back to latest version. Glad I helped someone!

Good luck! 🍀

I’m going to begin supporting this instance on Patreon starting this month, I guess symbolic of the changing times and server demands.

Bailing out, you are on your own. Good luck.

Good luck with this!

It's this why I can't login to the jerboa app?

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

Correct
