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 think the solving the bugs and server issues is great to see, but I also think Lemmy is facing some deep issues about its design in the future, and it’s going to take more than technical know-how to fix it.

      Yeah, I agree. I think they can be worked out, but I don’t think they have been yet. I think there’s a lot of potential in the distributed architecture, and am excited to see it progress.
