Broken? (self.liftoff)
submitted 9 months ago by Aarrodri to c/liftoff
 

I can see front page but then filtering by subscription, local etc I get "something went wrong" message. It's the app broken or just me? I cleared cache just in case but not working still.

Same, i can't remember what message it display when in subscription tab, but i do remember the message got a lot of word "type" in it. Been a few days on my end.

Seems fine for me, maybe .world had a brief outage or something? Liftoff usually freaks out when that happens.

I get this when I click top left options ,😭

[–] Mordred_vat 2 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Same for me, and I can't fathom why anyone would downvote you for that comment

People are so weird.

Hmm you both have me worried now, I have so many other apps installed and was planning to test them out for when Liftoff inevitably dies during the 0.19 switchover. But if it's happening early, nooooooo I am not prepared 😱

[–] Mordred_vat 1 points 9 months ago (1 children)

I'm ootl on this one, what's the switch over? Any favorite alternative?

[–] TeaHands 4 points 9 months ago (1 children)

The Lemmy devs put out a list of "breaking changes" coming with the next big core update, and advised app devs to be ready for them. Since as far as I know we've not heard much from the Liftoff developer since his twins arrived (which, clearly, understandable!) a lot of people assume this means it's not being actively worked on and will probably break when 0.19 hits. Could be wrong, of course!

Tbh I'm not sure on alternatives. None of the others have the same easy coziness to me. But I might have more of a play around with Summit and see if I can get that looking a bit less brash, because the multicommunity feature is great.

Oh no say it ain't so. Liftoff is the best client I've used.

When the first betas of 0.19 went out about two months ago, I contacted the Devs(plural) on Matrix.

Let’s just say Liftoff! Does not work when you are logged in to an instance that upgrades to 0.19 and cannot log in on 0.19. There’s no sign of any commits since August.

Just to add that the following are compatible with 0.19

Voyager - the daddy of Lemmy clients Sync (as of today) Avelon Mlem (RC in beta has full support, production works )

I’m sure there are others

[–] TeaHands 2 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Ah that's balls, but thanks for the update. Looks like Summit is ready too, I noticed it has scaled sort already if you're on a 0.19 instance.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 9 months ago

Mlem is now in the App Store with full 0.19RC support. Looks fantastic.

Do you have accounts logged in on more than one instance? One of my accounts is with an instance that just updated to the Lemmy 0.19 beta yesterday which doesn't with with all clients. Once I removed that account from LiftOff everything went back to normal.

[–] Aarrodri 2 points 9 months ago

Oh that might it! I have several instances logged.. shit..now I need to figure out which one..thanks for the tip!

[–] Aarrodri 2 points 9 months ago

It was lemmy.ml. they been having issues after upgrade. Removed instance account and all back to normal.
