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.

I am probably one of many refugees coming from Reddit. Here is hoping lemmy grows and grows well.

US people: This is 2p EDT today. I had to look it up, so I thought I'd save you the trouble.

EDIT: I'm assuming that Ruud means CEST (the summer daylight savings time version of the time zone that's currently being used there).

A bit concerning perhaps hold this off for a week or so seems like this is very important moment for the users from r**dit to decide if they want to be here or not.

What is new with the updated version later today?

[–] [email protected] 0 points 2 years ago (5 children)

The difference between .17 and .18 is pretty substantial. Lemmy.world neglected to update to .18 because captcha support was not working for new account signups, so they waited for v0.18.1

There should be substantial performance improvements because it moves Lemmy from using websocket to HTTP API.

There are lots of other fixes and things, but that is the most substantial change.

What happened? Or is this not yet done? Sorry I’m kinda lost in the whole CET timings.
