[Completed] Lemmy.World update to Lemmy 0.19.9 on 16th of March, 16:00 UTC

a year ago by lwadmin to c/lemmyworld

Hello,

we will be performing the long awaited update to Lemmy 0.19.9 tomorrow.

We are planning for around 1 hour of downtime between 16:00-17:00 UTC on 16th of March.

You can convert this to your local time here: https://inmytime.zone/...

You can find an overview of the changes in our previous announcement here and in the Lemmy release notes:


Update 16:50 UTC:

The upgrade was successfully completed at around 16:27 UTC, but we're still fighting with some performance issues after the upgrade. Our database and the outbound federation container are currently using significantly higher CPU than expected, which is still being investigated to identify the root cause.

partial breakage, the stuff that people on other instances have already been experiencing for a while.

iirc there are still some additional issues with sync arising with the update, but it won't be entirely broken.

I used sync for reddit for years, but I kinda hope sync dies. But I also have an axe to grind with the dev after they invalidated the app purchases and made people buy it again to not have ads. Plus their inability to update on a regular basis is kinda terrible, and has continued. One of the top posts on the sync community when I checked was to not report PMs because it will actually report a random comment with the same ID, which is just a massive fuck up given the amount of spam PMs.

they invalidated the app purchases and made people buy it again to not have ads.

Exactly. Not even a discount. I think it was even more expensive than the reddit version.

I just checked. It's $20 to remove ads. Wow.
I also checked to see how much it cost for the reddit version. I paid $4 to remove ads and $5 for the "pro" version. That's more than I've paid for any app. Now they want another $20 to remove ads on an app they neglect and ignore their customers? Disgusting.

Plus their inability to update on a regular basis is kinda terrible, and has continued.

Not just continued, but has gotten worse. Additionally, it's even more important to update more frequently because of the more frequent changes. It was also never fully functional for Lemmy. For example, spoilers have never worked.

To add to all that, they don't even have the decency to pop in for a quick comment or two just to help people feel better.

Wow that's a lot of salt for someone trying to value their work higher. Maybe just use a different app? Ironically I was a pro user on Reddit and have never been forced to upgrade on Lemmy as it has never shown me a single ad despite the fact that I would in heartbeat ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ , I have never had issues with any Sync app and I've been a user since...I dunno 2013?

I do agree that JDLawson has become more reclusive but he was never all that interactive with the community to be honest. I don't see that updates or stability of the app has really been an issue. Any time I have had problems they have always been native to Lemmy.

Honestly I was fine with the rebuy at first since it was a significant recode AND because they promised to stay on top of development a lot better than they had in the past. Obviously that was a lie and that's why I'm frustrated with them.

I've tried but like all other apps it's not perfect. I don't know why you can't tweak the spacer in your post view. List With Cards gets kinda close but the spacer is too big (and the cards could be a little more compact). With Compact view the spacer is too thin.

I also hate the way it handles user avatars/profile pictures. Why are Sync and Boost the only apps that do it properly? Hide it altogether if no custom picture is selected, otherwise display it. All the "default Lemmy" user avatars make the comment section too busy in Summit, but I want to see custom ones since it helps me identify people I recognise.

Summit also doesn't do a different font colour for pinned threads.

in short form, we have HAproxy running on a hetzner cloud VM for Lemmy/Lemmy-UI, another HAproxy VM for the alt UIs, a VM for the alt UIs.

for the main LW box, which runs lemmy containers, lemmy-ui, pictrs and a database each for lemmy and pictrs, we have a physical box with an EPYC 7502P 32 core CPU, 128GB memory and NVMe SSDs.

PieFed and Mbin both allow you to block URLs, like of a particular news source that you don't want. At a guess, the Sync and Connect Lemmy apps may do likewise (but I don't truly know). If Lemmy does not do it in the base web UI, you may have to hunt around to get the functionality that you want. I just wanted to let you know that it definitely does exist, maybe not in base Lemmy, but in multiple other ways, in case that helps.

Someone ELI5 why Lemmy is or isn't ready for a Reddit Exodus.

Personally, I want it to be. Reddit censorship/shadowbans/deletes is outta control. Imo the problem lemmy has is on Desktop, since on Android there are some great apps like Boost that give it a Reddit-like end user experience, wheras Desktop experience in a browser is No equivalent of RES, or classic reddit. Opening images is very janky. I like RESs 'view images buttons, that untwirls all view image buttons. Using lemmy on desktop is a Chore. I can handle it. But I imagine its very much a bad taste and an impediment to a greater influx of average users.

Its about time we left reddit behind and make Desktop lemmy more welcoming. The times we're in requires a trustable platform. Reddit ain't it.

I think it's just a matter of explaining instances in a clear and concise way. This isn't a Lemmy-specific issue though - it's a problem for all of the fediverse.

https://join-lemmy.org/instances says "You can access all content in the lemmyverse from any server, so it doesn't matter which one you choose.", but that still leaves some things unanswered.

It seems to have done a decent job of helping new users find a suitable server with a few simple questions though.

For me to rely on Lemmy for news, there needs to be a LOT more action. Right now Reddit can be my sole news source because of how many people are on there.

The problem can be seen when looking at Twitter/X and the exodus that has been happening there. Mastodon was touted as a Twitter alternative but the onboarding was so confusing due to being federated. People don't want to be confused they want things simple. This is why BlueSky took off rather than Mastodon.

Anyone remember Diaspora?*

Decentralization is not a new idea, it's just too confusing to the masses right now. While the Lemmy onboarding process is actually pretty good, picking an instance is a trip up (it was for me for a very long time and I'm tech-savvy). Until that part is solved centralized services will always have more migrating users sadly.

I hear ya, it wast a trip up for me necessarily, I just okayed thru it and it all worked somehow (basically I'm big dumb yes man and it worked out, lol), but i def recall the sign up was more involved due to those extra steps. A potential solution i can see happening is maybe a top youtuber like Linus or MKBHD could ease the pain of onboarding by making a digestible video that effectively goes viral due to their reach. Much like Linus vids on quitting windows for Linux or ditching Google services.

Try this out and see: go to PieFed.social and make an account. See the sign-up wizard, which asks you what you interests are and subscribes you to communities based on that, and asks how much content you want to see with the keywords "Trump" or "Musk" - none, a little, or all/no filtering - and check out the user customizable and shareable Feeds that were recently added (the equivalent of multi-Reddits, a highly requested feature).

The Fediverse is growing up. Lemmy... well, has the advantage of the legacy work put into it so far - e.g. all the apps that currently work for it (though with some, like Sync, falling behind).

PieFed is even opening up new avenues in the democratization of moderation, allowing the user to control what they want. Lemmy, meanwhile, is somehow becoming more like Reddit over time rather than less - e.g. while it has the modlog, it lacks a modmail, and any notification of a moderation action (removal, locking, banning, etc.) and while it used to report the name of a mod who removed content (iirc you might be used to that on LW, being on 0.19.3, until just now?), now it just says "mod". So there is no way to appeal or ask about or even be notified that your content has been moderated. Even Reddit was more friendly than that!?!?!?

The promise of the Fediverse is that we can keep hopping to new places, not that any one place will be any good, but the tools man, the tools... they are pretty authoritarian in nature, when you stop to think about it, they REALLY are. imho at least.

And Reddit has the content. And no tankies (but does have conservatives). Overall, the vast majority of people (centrists mainly, and who don't use Arch Linux btw) prefer simply to remain on Reddit, seeing no real reason to move.

OpenStars 1 point a year ago

I don't have a comprehensive listing, but one example I can think of offhand is that the search function works much better on Lemmy (and is about to improve further by restricting to the title field). The PieFed search feature that exists now (like Reddit's) is pretty bad, where you can paste an exact title but somehow get no matches.

An extremely minor one is that there is no preview of comments before submitting, although a preview was recently added for posts so one for comments surely is not far behind.

A more major one is that PieFed does not work quite as well for navigating "deeper" posts - you can only toggle between the one comment you are at in the moment, with its immediate parent, and "all comments" in a post, which for deeper posts also loses the entire chain bc it gets hidden below a "Continue thread" link, so even searching for exact text won't find it and instead you have to go through every single one of those one by one until you manage to stumble upon it. Lemmy is starting to do the latter as well, in a manner similar to how Reddit started to leave behind old-Reddit and transition to new-Reddit - which I do NOT like! - but at least when you somehow get a link to a comment (e.g. in a notification from when someone replies to you; or if someone sends it to you), then you can step up the chain one comment at a time, which makes working with those a lot easier.

Edit: and needing to edit this post to correct an autocorrect reminds me that editing comments on PieFed is very frustrating - it takes you to a separate page, then when you are done returns to the OP (not even going directly to your comment for some reason?), which completely obliterates your progress, e.g. if you had comments sorted and some hidden as you read through them all, then it's very frustrating that all of your effort in those regards get discarded.

Then again, there is now a fork of Thunder that is being tested on PieFed, so many/most of the above could be addressed that way? And it's not like Lemmy does not have frustrations of its own as well, in different areas.

I haven't tested moderation tools on PieFed yet.

Mainly, PieFed is both ahead of Lemmy in terms of features overall, especially for a new joiner with the sign-up wizard and the preloading of all communities across the entire Fediverse, while also being less polished than Lemmy in some other respects. But it's closing the gap REALLY fast!:-)

I'm not a dev/programmer, but does the version number starting with a zero suggest that Lemmy is still in a pre-release state? Like alpha or beta or something? If so, what needs to happen before it gets to version 1.0? Just curious! From my layperson's perspective, Lemmy runs great and I have no complaints about it, so I'm not sure what v.1.0 would look like. Or maybe it's all internal stuff that I'll never notice anyway?

It's a bit of a shame we don't see any significant new features in this release. Piefed seems to be developing at a much faster pace compared to Lemmy, which is a bit embarrassing tbh.

It is in Python so that is to be expected:-). Fwiw Lemmy's search feature is still vastly superior. Everything else, I would say that PieFed either ties or exceeds the Lemmy experience, sometimes greatly so, and often there is simply no equivalent at all (like user customizable and shareable Feeds, which act like multi-Reddits).

Mostly though, if you are happy with the Lemmy app that you use, then it's all good. Though PieFed is coming up strong to provide competition, which can only be a good thing for the entire Fediverse:-).

Aaaah, I get it now, thanks! I did see the “↑ 4” bits everywhere, but it turns out that every single comment I have looked at had 0 downvotes, and then instead of going ”↓ 0”, it just simply doesn't display downvotes. I thought I was going mad.

I liked the previous implementation, though. To me it seemed more clear.

Finally, the ability to view (and delete!) your own uploads.

FYI, the sorting on the uploads tab is broken. Obviously I don't expect sorting by "top" or "controversial" or whatever to work, but sorting by "old" doesn't, either. It's always sorted by newest first. But at least it's something. (I know for sure I have images uploaded that were not used in posts.)
