Lemmy.world is now upgraded to 0.18.1-rc.1, with the lemmy-ui at 0.18.0.

Why we upgraded to a RC instead of wait for the stable version? Because of the many issues with streaming that many users complained about, and the fact that Jerboa app stopped working for 0.17.4.

Also we are troubleshooting federation issues, for which the upgrade is a step to see if that solves part of it, and makes troubleshooting easier.

Old message: We’ve upgraded lemmy.world to 0.18.1-rc.1 and rolled back that upgrade because of issues.

(If you had posted anything in those 10 minutes between upgrade and rollback, that post is gone. Sorry!)

The main issue we saw is that users can’t login anymore. Existing sessions still worked, but new logins failed (from macos, ios and android. From linux and windows it worked)

Also new account creation didn’t work.

I’ll create an issue for the devs and retry once it’s fixed.

    Hol up, are you soft announcing the development of a new Jerboa-based app? What’s it called? Good luck to you! I hope you achieve your goals with the project and that is well received. ☺️

      Hey, so it’s not jerboa based and I ended up pushing it back a few weeks, but I’m now looking for beta testers on Android if you’re interested

      As for the name, I think I’m going with Luna for several reasons, a big one being that someone suggested it and Flemmy was the only name I could think of beforehand

      I’m posting updates to [email protected] for now, if you’re interested I’ll be posting instructions for the beta soon.

      Whether you’re interested or not I’d love to get feedback. I’m good with data and UX flow, but I mostly just comment - I need to learn how other people want to use Lemmy
