It's well worth some downtime, Lemmy 0.19 is a major QoL upgrade. Thanks for giving us some advanced notice though!

Admin not dead confirmed, very cool.

Using relative time to display timezone-agnostic date is brilliant lol

it's been nice to lemmy with you, gentlemen

Thanks a lot for you hard work and commitment!

FYI, if anyone had 2fa it will be disabled after this upgrade and you'll have to do it again.

Thank you, man! I was curious about your absence in the last 2-3 months, but figured there is not really much to do until the BIG upgrade. Thanks for being here, being you! Awesome admin, awesome instance! Thanks for all your work!

Hexbear.net, now blocked✅

Thanks for all the hard work you all do!

Finally, I can block hexbear now!

PSA For lemm.ee users who cannot sign in and are getting messages similar to "logged in (green)" "incorrect credentials (red)" back to back when trying to sign in:

• Clear your browsers cache for lemm.ee
• Try to sign in again

Not sure if this is widespread but it worked for me.

LETS GOOOOO

Seems like a lot of servers are upgrading today.

Keep calm and lemm.ee on.

Time for another donation!

Question: will this affect our ability to upload pictures?

Since the upgrade to v19 I've noticed the all applications and web site seem to be very very slow to initially launch and return subscription and user info.

This is happening in both Voyager app, Thunder, web site default and web alexandrite.

Is anyone else experiencing similar issues?

Look forward to a lot of the features this will bring, thanks.

Voting on a post appears to no longer count as "read", and thus is not filtering from feed. Intended? Or am I doing it wrong?

Still very excited for this upgrade, thank you!

edit: I guess on the plus side, it looks like it's not "just me", so maybe there's a bug they're working on.

I'll be in bed, upgrade away.

Great stuff, thanks for all your hard work!

That's cool, hope all goes well with the upgrade! Same to any other servers upgrading today.

Still seeing "read" posts, even thought "show read posts" is unchecked. This didn't happen in 0.18.

Thank you admin for your service.

This is the perfect Christmas gift and the new upgrade looks great! Excited to see Lemmy continue growing. It’s really helped improve my relationship with social media and cut back on my doomscrolling while encouraging me to participate and break out of my lurker shell.

PSA for Thunder (ios) users: account management gets messed up after this upgrade. Logging out and logging back in again fixes everything.

Thanks for the warning, and thanks for keeping the instance up to date! Much appreciated.

After the lemm.ee server upgrade (excited!), when I scroll past the first loaded Subscribed "page" in the Jerboa app, it provides a "Posts failed loading, retry" message. It seems to dynamically load multiple pages for "Local" and "All" just fine. I have no idea if this is a server/lemm.ee or client/Jerboa issue, just wanted to see if anyone else has seen a similar problem or has ideas to fix. Thanks.

I'll be sleeping, nice timing yay. Thanks for your work tho!

Thank you!
