Hello,

we will be performing the long awaited update to Lemmy 0.19.9 tomorrow.

We are planning for around 1 hour of downtime between 16:00-17:00 UTC on 16th of March.

You can convert this to your local time here: https://inmytime.zone/?iso=2025-03-16T16%3A00%3A00.000Z

You can find an overview of the changes in our previous announcement here and in the Lemmy release notes:


Update 16:50 UTC:

The upgrade was successfully completed at around 16:27 UTC, but we're still fighting with some performance issues after the upgrade. Our database and the outbound federation container are currently using significantly higher CPU than expected, which is still being investigated to identify the root cause.

This is the update that'll break sync, right?

Sad times, but I guess I'm gonna be deciding between boost and infinity tomorrow

Give Voyager a try as well!!

[–] [email protected] 16 points 2 days ago (1 children)

+1 for Voyager. It feels like a spiritual successor to Apollo.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 2 days ago

Voyager makes me feel right at home as a former Apollo and RiF user.

I used sync for reddit for years, but I kinda hope sync dies. But I also have an axe to grind with the dev after they invalidated the app purchases and made people buy it again to not have ads. Plus their inability to update on a regular basis is kinda terrible, and has continued. One of the top posts on the sync community when I checked was to not report PMs because it will actually report a random comment with the same ID, which is just a massive fuck up given the amount of spam PMs.

Former Sync user of around 5 years. Recently switched to summit and it was a pretty easy transition. I've made plenty of rants about how the Dev just abandons paying customers and I finally had enough once I knew that it actually messes things up if you try to report some things.

I can't make any other app look and feel as nice as Sync, honestly. I was trying out Thunder just now, and maybe I could get used to it but the user avatars don't work for some reason. I don't disagree about ljdawson though and I wish it was different.

I directly noticed that the background color got brighter and looked in this community to see whether a post like this got published. I mean, congrats on the new update I guess but I liked the darker dark mode more πŸ˜”

I can't wait! We'll finally get to do a real world test for the parallel sending features!! And if all goes well I'll get to save 5 Euro a month!

Thanks LW

Final bullet point here says otherwise: https://lemmy.world/post/23471887

Good luck admins! And thanks for doing it during the Carabao cup final so I have something else to occupy my time while lemmy.world is down :)

Hopefully this will improve the sync/federation process between LW and other instances, especially those further away geographically :)

[–] [email protected] 14 points 2 days ago

A whole hour of nice and quiet on the Lemmyverse? 😜

Hey, do you think you can add the running version of the instance on the column that is on the right side of the lemmy.world website?

It's a bit of a shame we don't see any significant new features in this release. Piefed seems to be developing at a much faster pace compared to Lemmy, which is a bit embarrassing tbh.

[–] [email protected] 22 points 2 days ago

considering that we're coming from 0.19.3, this does still introduce quite a few bigger changes for LW.

I'm not a dev/programmer, but does the version number starting with a zero suggest that Lemmy is still in a pre-release state? Like alpha or beta or something? If so, what needs to happen before it gets to version 1.0? Just curious! From my layperson's perspective, Lemmy runs great and I have no complaints about it, so I'm not sure what v.1.0 would look like. Or maybe it's all internal stuff that I'll never notice anyway?

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 day ago (1 children)

MAME (Arcade and various consoles/computers emulator) is at version 0.275 and it's been developed since 1996. πŸ˜€

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 day ago

Wow πŸ˜†

[–] [email protected] 17 points 2 days ago (1 children)

You are right.

After 0.19.9 is said to be "1.0"

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 day ago

Oh cool! Thank you πŸ‘

[–] [email protected] 8 points 2 days ago

Good luck!

Looking forward to the webUI supporting defined thumbnails per post.
