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.
Heyo! Small update from someone who is watching the upgrade live; it’s ongoing still. Seems like they are still facing some performance issues. So grab your popcorn and wait! 🍿 (Btw, i am not a sysadmin, just a moderator)
Where do you look at it?
It’s on a private discord server for instance admins and mods, so not for public. Sorry :)
Alright, thank you for the update, hope everything goes well!
I’m a moderator, who should I reach out to to receive an invite to the discord? I want to post a new forum game to one of the communities I mod for, but I’m holding off until I can be sure this update is stable.
It should be good now. The discord server is only for people who help moderate the instance itself, and not community mods. I help with the moderation part. If you have questions then you can ask in the !support@lemmy.world or !moderators@lemmy.world communities. Sorry :)
Understood. Thanks!
Sigh, just like reddit. Private spaces that Plebs aren’t invited too / can’t access.
You are free to make your own lemmy instance and make everything public. That’s the beauty of lemmy over reddit.
So, you think a public stream showing all backend infos including credentials to databases and stuff like that, is a good idea? 🤔
