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.

Looks like it works, but it's very slow - 25 seconds to load the page. https://i.imgur.com/ghiofDC.png

I get the feeling that it's traffic. This instance has grown much larger, stupidly fast, over the last two weeks due to Reddexit (myself included, having arrived less than two weeks ago). I'm sure the admins are working to find ways to handle it.

I'm just going to exercise patience. Good things are worth waiting for!

I hope for the sake of the exodus that the servers can cope with the pressure. Lemmy.world is shaping up to be somewhat of a primary instance and having it stable would be crucial for any sort of migration to stick.
