[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.

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

You mean Imma have to get a life for a whole two hours? Maybe even more??

sh.itjust.works Managed to finish in only 27 minutes which was much sooner than the estimated time. Lemmy.world might finish quickly too, estimated time is just a maximum, it isn't always going to be the amount of time it will take.

It will take surely minimum 1 hour for us probably just because the database migrations and moving our automation.

Would you be open to changing who hosts your servers?

Yes narnia, would be perfect place to host server stuff XD

Maybe, but you would be billed about 4.5 years for every month you rent a server

I guess that makes sense considering just how much bigger Lemmy.world is. Bigger instances are bound to take longer to update.

It's tragic, I have nowhere else to go for that long. And the alternative is to socialize? 😥 I'd rather have a third wank.

Create an alt account on another instance.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 9 months ago

But where do you find the material for that?

You could completely fuck up your sleep schedule so that you're sure to be sleeping during the update.

Would only be a couple extra hours for me since my schedule is already so fucked. I'm considering it.
