Please upgrade to 0.9.1 as a workaround to connection issues to lemmy.world.

3 years ago by aeharding to c/wefwef

Lemmy 0.18 broke direct connection to the Lemmy API from web clients with a very strange merge request two weeks ago. I have no idea what the motive was for this to be merged. Suffice it to say, it's been the source of a ton of headache today. https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/pull/3191

Luckily, there is a new PR to fix web clients not being able to connect to lemmy instances here: https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/pull/3421

If you have a github account, please "thumbs up" this PR. DO NOT COMMENT, that just spams the devs

Thanks! :)

Well I went back and reinstalled the webapp and now I can’t login bc the keyboard isn’t showing up.

I tried restarting the phone, the browser, etc.. but it only lets me login if I’m using safari and not the home screen version.

All good though. Growing pains. The extra traffic is I’m sure giving everyone fits.

Works pretty well even in safari.

Reading the comments, it looks like breaking clients was the purpose of the original merge.

I had to force close the app and then it updated which fixed most of my issues
