We've upgraded lemmy.world to 0.18.1-rc.1 and rolled back that upgrade because of issues.

(If you had posted anything in those 10 minutes between upgrade and rollback, that post is gone. Sorry!)

The main issue we saw is that users can't login anymore. Existing sessions still worked, but new logins failed (from macos, ios and android. From linux and windows it worked)

Also new account creation didn't work.

I'll create an issue for the devs and retry once it's fixed.

Edit Contacted the devs, they tell me to try again with lemmy-ui at version 0.18.0. Will try again, brace for some downtime!

Edit 2 So we upgraded again, and it seemed to work nicely! But then it slowed down so much it was unuseable. There were many locks in the database. People reported many JSON errors. Sorry, we won't be on 0.18.1 any time soon I'm afraid..

Jerboa is almost unusable for me at the moment. A lot of crashes, pages not loading, messages not sending etc. But I know that's inevitable at times. Restarting my phone seemed to make it worse. But I know you guys are on it! 👍

[-] kratoz29@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

I recommend you this web app

https://wefwef.app

It is almost as functional as Jerboa and very impressive for a web app.

Hello Lemmy World

[-] Shadywack@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

Running one of the largest and most vibrant Lemmy instances certainly makes this deployment a great test case for the devs and the system overall. @ruud@lemmy.world this community really appreciates you!

[-] FlavorGrain@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

Sucks that lemmy.world won't be working with Jerboa when the reddit apps quit working in a couple days.

[-] SuperIce@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

Jerboa still works fine with lemmy.world. It pops up a warning that the server version is unsupported, but it still seems to work fine.

Seems good for me too!

[-] ClassyHatter@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

I managed to visit when the server was 0.18.1-rc. I didn’t see any posts and the selector for Subscribed, Local and All was “empty”, as in nothing was selected and I could not select anything.

[-] ruud@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

Is it OK now? There's a bug in lemmy-ui 0.18.1-rc.1 which I think you've seen

[-] qwertzwerq@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

Thanks

[-] s4if@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

Seems good.. thank.. :)

and here's a userscript to modify the v0.18 UI to a more compact, widescreen utilizing style:

Kind of a related question. If we find bugs or anything, where can we report them? I have tried looking for a contact us page but couldn't find it anywhere.

[-] TeaHands@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

Was worth a try! But yeah that was pretty bad 😬

[-] antik@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

Yep that was terribly slow

So how does this work..is there a beta server to try it on? Or it worked in resting and it only broke with the full amount of users?

[-] notavote@sh.itjust.works 1 points 2 years ago

Yes, there are three testing servers, but errors still do happen. especially when everyone is in a hurry to release

[-] xaxl@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

Is this upgrade because removing websockets broke captchas for the sign up process?

Could they just put a page in front of the signup on the webserver with the captcha that needs to be passed first?

[-] imaqtpie@sh.itjust.works 1 points 2 years ago

Dude I posted the funniest comment in those 10 minutes but you all must have missed it. Oh well 😅

[-] Classy@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

In the meantime I've migrated over to Connect for Lemmy on Android, and it is working significantly better than Jerboa did.
