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.

I sadly couldn't use the web version of lemmy.world at all cause of the websocket issues. 0.18+ is gonna be an amazing upgrade fore this instance! All the devs and staff who made this happen have my undying respect.

Y'all are so nice and transparent here. This place is lovely, unlike Reddit and their admins lol.

Hopefully third time's the charm and the upgrade will be successful.

[–] woelkchen 13 points 1 year ago

Most issues were caused by browsers trying to access cached code. A recent change introduced changed paths for each new release, so browsers will fetch the new files. At least those issues should be a thing of the past.

Nice work with everything so far, really liking it. What all is being changed/fixed in the new revision? Is it just more efficient code to support higher site traffic?

[–] TeaHands 13 points 1 year ago

Biggest thing is it entirely gets rid of the problem where the All feed would auto-update and add a ton of random posts while you were trying to browse. Really awful experience browsing by All, for a while there.

Good luck! πŸ€

I’m going to begin supporting this instance on Patreon starting this month, I guess symbolic of the changing times and server demands.

[–] Zenith25 15 points 1 year ago

It’s awesome to see some teamwork between server admins. Best of luck with the upgrade, hope it goes smoothly for you this time!

[–] buycurious 14 points 1 year ago

Fingers crossed and thanks for all the transparency!!

I can't login on my lemmy.world account, neither on Jerboa nor in the browser, I'm getting "Incorrect login" :(

(I'm posting from Liftoff because I was already logged in)

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

Best of luck with everything. This is the fix that would fix the instant crashing with Jerboa if it works, correct?

Server has sped up significantly. Things are getting faster / better.

Maybe 0.18.1-RC4 will stick? Lets hope!

Looks like the update is showing, but it's been slow since. Hopefully not permanent. Also having issues upvoting.

[–] Quetzacoatl 11 points 1 year ago

looking good so far, the instance is back, testing to post!

[–] adamantris 11 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

GL! And while at it, a big thank you for running (and fixing occasional server oopsies) this instance. :) I started to donate for the server costs, even if 1€ is mostly symbolic

Cleared my cache and cookies as I thought it would be necessary like last time, but now I can't log in. The login button just turns into the animated wheel and then nothing happens. I'm typing this on a mobile where I still have an active session.
