Huhu, that language option always causing huge issue, i’ve learned changing that option will cause me unable to post and some people reported unable to see a lot of comment. It’s annoying.
Undetermined is the default, and i think Cafe set to undetermined as well, so if you pick English you can’t post it to community that isn’t set to English. It’s very janky. And if you change your language setting in your profile setting, you won’t be able to view a lot of comment and post as well.
Honestly, i still have no idea how that thing works, so better just leave it.
let’s see if the newly released lemmy 0.18.1 solves this problem (to the tech team: lemmy-ansible has also been updated).
a tip that I’ve heard: due to the changes in the path of some .js files, after the upgrade, those of us still using the browser (instead of apps) will need to refresh monyet.cc to get the old path out of browser cache.
keep in mind that this 0.17.4 to 0.18.1 upgrade is a major one, touching almost all lemmy components. so, backups will need to be taken, and we’ll all have to keep our fingers crossed that the upgrade completes without any complications.
here’s an issue that I think a couple of other instances have run into: https://github.com/ubergeek77/Lemmy-Easy-Deploy/issues/26 (it’s not from the lemmy-ansible repo but I think this developer tries to follow lemmy-ansible’s docker file quite closely)
from a glance it seems to involve the /etc/hosts file interacting with docker dns, causing lemmy-ui to fail when finding the site icon (so if you haven’t set that then you probably won’t encounter this issue)

No idea what’s going on with that. I put it to undetermined but at least one other person can see the post (and commented)

all the best to the tech team!
Hope so, but i heard of the same problem from lemmy.world after they updated to 0.18.1, so maybe it will be fixed in stable release.
the stable release is out, at least for 0.18.1 it is, and lemmy.world has been upgraded
We’re upgrading hopefully tonight!
that’s great news :-)

Thanks for shaking that out for us!! :)
