Hey all,

Just wanted to loop everyone in to the bugs/issues that have been discovered so far with 0.19. I’ll try to keep this updated, however if you notice any others please put them below.

The link to the Lemmy github issues page is here.

We’re experiencing most of these (except the outgoing federation one AFAIK, I’ve not had it reported).

We are especially suffering from the high server load one, and you may see downtime where Lemmy.zip is not loading for short periods (or the message “lemmy is starting”) while the DB restarts itself. This should only last a couple of seconds.

To mitigate this, I’ve temporarily upgraded the performance of the server so this should happen less frequently (once a day instead of once an hour!) but I do sincerely apologise. With any luck this will be fixed soon.

Thanks

Demigodrick

    Oh dear 🙁 I’ll check if there’s any open issues on github and if not I’ll open a new one so they can fix it.

    Ps - welcome!

      Thanks! Scaled sort is pretty awesome too! I wonder if Scaled-Active would be a thing, or if it’d even be a good idea lol.

        Probably worth exploring. Scaled for me is just full of the lemmit repost bot!

          Do you have “show bot accounts” enabled in your account settings?

            I do, I have to keep it on in case a bot account starts spamming stuff (plus there are some good bots out there!). I’ll probably personally block that lemmit bot at some point though.
