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.

Goodluck and thanks for the effort in all of this guys.

[โ€“] twistedtxb@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Super responsive, and I can login using Jerboa 37!

[โ€“] small44@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Nice work with everything so far, really liking it. What all is being changed/fixed in the new revision? Is it just more efficient code to support higher site traffic?

[โ€“] Contravariant@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

I like the new layout better, just hope everything keeps working

[โ€“] randommodule@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Seems to have worked! Typed from Jeboa :)

Cleared my cache and cookies as I thought it would be necessary like last time, but now I can't log in. The login button just turns into the animated wheel and then nothing happens. I'm typing this on a mobile where I still have an active session.

[โ€“] Lev_Astov@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Don't log out; got it!

[โ€“] ndr@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

I'm trying to login on Jerboa now and it spins forever :(

Can't login anymore. I'll just use my .ca account for now while things get sorted. Not a big deal. These things take time.

Looking awesome! faster, more responsive, new sorting types, tighter layout, no auto-load of random posts ๐Ÿฅณ ๐Ÿฅณ

Just need to sort out the wefwef issue, and we're back in business...

[โ€“] Gruntyfish@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Thank you for all of your hard work!

[โ€“] ZephyrXero@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

For those that were about to Google it... 20:00 CET is 12pm PDT and 3pm EDT

[โ€“] Darkwatch00@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Good luck. This is my favorite instance so I will be eagerly awaiting. Lemmy has been incredible and strangely what I needed. I would doom scroll reddit and see the same posts and the same comment chains and just redundancy hell.

Lemmy feels so different and the community is so welcoming. Thanks again everyone for making this lost Redditor a found lemming (is that the correct term lol).

[โ€“] Empyreus@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Crossing my fingers, excited for the update

Is it wise to do a big deployment on the day when you may receive a massive influx of new users from Reddit? The API changes take affect on the 1st.

[โ€“] cley_faye@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Wise ? No. Useful ? Maybe. If the improvement can help with the load and the general experience, it's a good idea.

And, hm, the "site is down sometimes" experience would not be that foreign to reddit user in the first place :D

[โ€“] TeaHands@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago (2 children)

It's a bit of a lose lose situation tbh because if we don't upgrade then the first experience those new people are gonna have of Lemmy is an unusable All feed and a broken Jerboa.

My other account is on lemm.ee and the admin there contributes a lot of fixes to the software (plus has been working with Ruud to figure out our federation issues). He upgraded us a couple days ago and it's been amazingly stable given that it was only a day after the rc1 disaster.

Ultimately I trust that he and Ruud know what they're doing, but sometimes with an untestable situation like the size of .world you just have to pull the trigger and hope it works.

It's this why I can't login to the jerboa app?

[โ€“] woelkchen@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

How often do you plan to post that question?

What happened? Or is this not yet done? Sorry Iโ€™m kinda lost in the whole CET timings.

US people: This is 2p EDT today. I had to look it up, so I thought I'd save you the trouble.

EDIT: I'm assuming that Ruud means CEST (the summer daylight savings time version of the time zone that's currently being used there).

Thanks for everything you do, Ruud@lemmy.world

[โ€“] deanne@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Bailing out, you are on your own. Good luck.

[โ€“] SuperCuber@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Looking better! Let's go!

Latest version of Jerboa on Google Play doesn't work with servers below 0.18;

For those who want to use Jerboa to access lemmy.world before the upgrade to 0.18.x happens, you can install a specific release from GitHub instead of Google Play. I found version 0.0.34-alpha to work (using it rn to post this). https://github.com/dessalines/jerboa/releases/tag/0.0.34

Edit: since the update is done, it's probably best to go back to latest version. Glad I helped someone!
