[Update - March 3rd 2024 , 21:14 CET]

The update seems to have worked well. The database migration took some time, but after that it looks everything works as far as we tested. Let us know what you think! And if you like our work, check the donations links in the sidebar ;-)

(As you might notice, the new comments are shown YELLOW, that's not a bug, it's apparently a new feature in Lemmy...)


Hey everyone,

We wanted to announce that we will be attempting to upgrade Lemmy.World to version 0.19.3 on Sunday. The update will start at 2024-03-03 1900 UTC and should hopefully take no more than 2 hours. In the event there are issues, we will roll back to 0.18.5. In the event of a roll back, any data created by users will be lost, so we'll try our best to avoid this!

Hopefully downtime should be minimal <3

During the upgrade, please feel free to make yourself at home on our Matrix and Discord chat rooms.

Lemmy.World Pub

Please follow Lemmy.World (@[email protected]) - Mastodon for updates.

As usual, status can be tracked by visiting https://dash.lemmy.world and https://status.lemmy.world

Thanks for your patience in waiting for us. Stability is king for us!

Thanks for all your hard work, LW team :)

Thanks! I fucking hate it!

I post a lot and chat with a decent amount of people. Because of this I've regularly got 20-30+ messages in my inbox. It was bad enough that if I click upvote while typing that it would have deleted my entire message and make me start over. That's fine. I can get over that. I can just rewire around that and just wait or cut the text before doing anything. What's driving me fucking insane now is that instead of being able to mark messages as read and refreshing the page manually, the page refreshes automatically after marking every message as read. I have no idea who the hell thought that would be a good idea but it's idiotic. I either have to mark everything read all at once or suffer through a refresh every single time I mark a message as read.

The other features and what not I'm sure are great but that is such an enormous downside for me that I've barely bothered looking at anything else. Just get frustrated with waiting for a refresh after every message and just going to YouTube or playing a game instead. I'm going to end up just using Boost exclusively for messages, something that just got leaps and bounds better due to threading messages.

Was this really the best way to present this?

Liftoff is dead because of this right? It is for me at least.

Oh well, voyager seems cool so maybe it's a win I was forced to try it.

[โ€“] [email protected] 10 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (2 children)

Liftoff hasn't been updated since July 2023, it doesn't look like this issue is getting fixed anytime soon. See https://github.com/liftoff-app/liftoff/issues/517

[โ€“] [email protected] 10 points 1 year ago

I'm looking forward to it. I've actually been cutting back my Lemmy waiting for a the scaled sort. To keep my feed fresh, id been subscribed to mostly memes and I have been getting tired of it. It wiltbe nice to seey niche community getting more love from my feed at last

Got logged out of both the browser and Sync. Logged back into both. Other than that everything seems fine.

Let's hope for a smooth upgrade and many thanks to all of you making this possible to all of us users!

[โ€“] [email protected] 9 points 1 year ago

We try because we're users like everyone else!

[โ€“] [email protected] 9 points 1 year ago

let's goooo. golden age of lemmy here we come

[โ€“] [email protected] 9 points 1 year ago

Best of Luck! Really hoping this works out well so Voyager can move forward with deprecating the old auth method

[โ€“] [email protected] 8 points 1 year ago

I am guessing this is why Liftoff is down?

[โ€“] [email protected] 8 points 1 year ago

Good luck lads.

0.19 also introduced a /sitemap.xml endpoint, but it responds with a 404 on lemmy.world. ๐Ÿค”

I was able to enable my 2FA now :-)

Exciting times, best of luck with the update!

[โ€“] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Posts removed by a mod and by creator is still showing up. Before the update, they would disappear from the feed.

oh man, this yellow highlight is literally the worst

[โ€“] [email protected] 8 points 1 year ago

Someone should build a Lemmy client so we don't see that ugly colour anymore! And give it a StarTrekkie name!

;-)
