Today we spent some time preparing for the big upgrade, by kicking the Lemmy version up to 0.18.5, merging in the latest changes from lemmy-ansible git repository and cleaning up some disk space on the instance.
So tomorrow at 02.00 am Oregon time we will do the update to Lemmy 0.19.
This is 11.00 am CET for people in Europe.
Hopefully all goes well and we come out the other side with a nice new 0.19 version. Its supposed to take about 30 minutes of downtime if there are no issues to solve.
Wish us luck :)
IMPORTANT: You probably need to log out and log in again to be able to post anything since they reworked authentication in this release.
Absolutely, this is a big one: https://join-lemmy.org/news/2023-12-15_-_Lemmy_Release_v0.19.0_-_Instance_blocking,_Scaled_sort,_and_Federation_Queue
