Hey everyone,
We wanted to announce that we will be attempting to upgrade Lemmy.World to version 0.19.3 on Saturday. The update will start at 2024-03-03 1900 UTC and should hopefully take no more than 2 hours. In the event there are issues, we will roll back to 0.18.5. In the event of a roll back, any data created by users will be lost, so we’ll try our best to avoid this!
Hopefully downtime should be minimal <3
During the upgrade, please feel free to make yourself at home on our Matrix and Discord chat rooms.
Please follow Lemmy.World (@LemmyWorld@mastodon.world) - Mastodon for updates.
As usual, status can be tracked by visiting https://dash.lemmy.world and https://status.lemmy.world
Thanks for your patience in waiting for us. Stability is king for us!

Looks like it worked!! Congratulations!!!
It may be an issue with the app Memmy, but I now have a score of zero, not three thousand. It’s not a huge issue at all, just something I noticed.
Those “scores” were just “accidentally” a feature, removed after 0.19
Oooh, excitement! 🤩
Test comment
Test recieved!
Good luck, boss.
Thanks for all your hard work, LW team :)
I’m looking forward to it. I’ve actually been cutting back my Lemmy waiting for a the scaled sort. To keep my feed fresh, id been subscribed to mostly memes and I have been getting tired of it. It wiltbe nice to seey niche community getting more love from my feed at last
On the login page, if your existing password is less than 10 characters, the password-validation script will not let you log in.
I would recommend then to try “forget password”
Welp goodbye LiftOff. Hope it ends up getting updated in the future
Mine also stopped working. What’s the alternative?
Voyager ;)
Sync seems to work. Unless you don’t see this message then perhaps not
And sync just got an update. Posting from sync as well
Oh so that’s why it’s buggered! Bugger…
You mean Imma have to get a life for a whole two hours? Maybe even more??
sh.itjust.works Managed to finish in only 27 minutes which was much sooner than the estimated time. Lemmy.world might finish quickly too, estimated time is just a maximum, it isn’t always going to be the amount of time it will take.
It will take surely minimum 1 hour for us probably just because the database migrations and moving our automation.
I guess that makes sense considering just how much bigger Lemmy.world is. Bigger instances are bound to take longer to update.
Would you be open to changing who hosts your servers?

Yes narnia, would be perfect place to host server stuff XD
Maybe, but you would be billed about 4.5 years for every month you rent a server
It’s tragic, I have nowhere else to go for that long. And the alternative is to socialize? 😥 I’d rather have a third wank.
Create an alt account on another instance.
You could completely fuck up your sleep schedule so that you’re sure to be sleeping during the update.
Would only be a couple extra hours for me since my schedule is already so fucked. I’m considering it.
But where do you find the material for that?
Quiblr web app updated 😇
oh, I love how that looks. Such a clean UI.
You did not know about Quiblr? The BEST web ui of them all?
best is subjective
Agreed
You’re too kind! Your support gives me energy to keep working on Quiblr lol
I really like your ui so much
Thank you! It’s been my passion side-project!
It is self hostable or is there just the site at quiblr.com?
Seems like something I would love to throw onto q.programming.dev with the other alternate UIs were running
Did tagging people break with the update? When I type @ nothing shows up.
@Astrealix@lemmy.world no, it works for me. Do you use a app?
Using the website on my mac, on chrome. Weird.
Hmmm really weird. But thanks for reporting it! We will investigate why it doesnt work.
Greatly appreciate the 2FA improvement! I can finally enable it now without locking myself out, which happened every time I tried to enable it previously.
However, in true Fediverse fashion, they’ve made it 122.6% more complicated than it needs to be. Why contain all of the relevant information in a button pointing to a highly specific protocol? I had to manually copy and paste the button’s URL into Notepad++ and cut the parts I needed from it. Why not just give the secret or a QR code like literally every other implementation of 2FA that has ever existed? I’ve never seen such a button before on any other website when I wanted to switch on 2FA, even on Mastodon they use a QR code and/or the secret key.
And no backup codes? 🤔
I sound like a complainy complainer, but I’m genuinely happy/grateful I could enable 2FA. I’m just a n00b who worries about people even n00bier than I am trying to figure it out.
Cheers!
Posts removed by a mod and by creator is still showing up. Before the update, they would disappear from the feed.
Yeah thats good though, it means that if someone deletes their comment (or is removed by mod) the rest of the comment tree isn’t nuked along with it.
Lemmy could probably hide leaf node comments tho
Good point.
