[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.
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!

Hi
Pls check how much traffic you’re now sending out for every activity - my server is recording that everything from lemmy.world is being 4 times (e.g. 1 Upvote is sent 4 times to every instance that has a subscriber. Those instances will reject 3 of them for being dupes, but it’s still a lot to be sending out).
lemmy.ca had a problem where they were sending everything 3 times, and it was because they were running 3 containers, and they all had the same index number, so maybe it’s that.
Thanks.
Thanks. This made us find out that we misconfigured it. I have now changed the configuration, hope it works.
Edit: FYI, I opened the Lemmy Matrix and see that you were already discussing the the dbzer0 admin
Hello Ruud,
Thank you for your work on LW.
Kind of hijacking this thread, but are you aware that 19 instances seem to be constantly lagging behind? https://phiresky.github.io/lemmy-federation-state/site?domain=lemmy.world
Among them
I usually use Reddthat, but used this account to make sure that this would go through.
Slight ping to @[email protected] as they commented on the previous comment
Hi,
yes we noticed that, and we will look into the issue with the federation. Thanks for the reminder!
Thank you for your work!
We will look into this!
Commenting from the latest version of Jerboa.
As far as I can tell so far the update went well. I was a little disappointed that I had to log back in again, old login token expired or whatever, but totally understandable.
Same thing with Boost, logging back in fixed it.
Quiblr web app updated 😇
oh, I love how that looks. Such a clean UI.
Thank you! It’s been my passion side-project!
You did not know about Quiblr? The BEST web ui of them all?
You’re too kind! Your support gives me energy to keep working on Quiblr lol
I really like your ui so much
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.
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
Kinda surprising the dev just abandoned it without a word given it was so popular. You’d think they at least announce they’re done. Wonder how long before it gets pulled from the Play Store.
Pretty sure the dev had a kid recently and had said he might not be able to get around to updates. This was a known thing to some people at least.
I just want to tell you both good luck.
We’re all counting on you.
What is the status regarding 0.19.5?
For those out of the loop, 0.19 brings nice features to Lemmy World like:
- Unbroken ampersands (&) in titles.
- Improved 2-factor authentication, which will disable it for those using it, so you’ll want to reenable it after the upgrade. I think in turn this may sign people out, so be sure you still have your login info around, and if things are acting kinda odd, maybe clear your cache.
- Scaled sorting to help surface less active communities.
- Instance blocking via user settings, so if there’s an instance you don’t enjoy seeing communities from, you can block them. This does not block all users from said instance.
- Import/export account settings, which includes your bio & various settings like show/hide bot accounts/NSFW content, default sort settings, etc., subbed communities, saved posts/comments, and blocked users/communities/instances.
Finally instance blocking, goodbye politics
goodbye lemmynsfw, with its’ somehow constant stream of different types of kinks showing up in hot no matter how many communities I block from it 🙈
Fuck I actually hate that more than politics. The NSFW filter does not hide titles so your in a public space browsing Lemmy and you get 5 posts in a row of “Big COCK mmm yummy 😋😋😋🤤🤤🤤” in big font
LMAOO EXACTLY
YES
TEST
FAILED
Got logged out of both the browser and Sync. Logged back into both. Other than that everything seems fine.
🎉
Did sync tell you or did you have to manually log out and back in?
I had a popup that my session expired. Logged back in, and all was good!
Welp goodbye LiftOff. Hope it ends up getting updated in the future
Mine also stopped working. What’s the alternative?
Voyager ;)
Sync seems to work. Unless you don’t see this message then perhaps not
And sync just got an update. Posting from sync as well
Thanks for your service. I enjoy it over here. Keep on with the good stuff!
let’s goooo. golden age of lemmy here we come
Think this fucked up the mod log tho
How?
Click the mod log button, a bunch of info is now missing.
At least on a web client
