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.
Hey thank you! I really thought the upgrade has started since I’m having difficulty fetching posts and commenting.
I can’t believe you still took the time to reply to comments as busy as you are. Lemmy is really like the early days of Reddit. I hope it never change.
Replying to comments is a good way to test the responsiveness of the site… :-)
That’s true. Thanks for all your hard work man!
