As Lemmy grows and develops we may encounter bugs. In particular, new bugs may surface after upgrading. We’ll do our best to maintain a stable system based on the ongoing work. Our smaller sites in Europe, China and Japan may receive updates prior to our USA site as a way to test stability of new releases before implementing them here.
Please be patient and understanding as we grow and help you have a better Link Aggregator and Discussion Community experience that is open, federated and free of advertising.
Welcome to … UI: 0.18.2-rc.1 BE: 0.18.1-10-g9c2490d4f
We are working on improving load balancing today and distributing the instance across multiple servers. As a result, you may see some timeouts, thank you for your patience.
@SDF@lemmy.sdf.org: Lemmy is now up to 0.18.4. This update fixes collapsed comments, and apparently 0.18.3 should have a massive performance improvement with regards to database accesses, so I think it would be good to update.
Welcome to … UI: 0.18.1-rc.11 BE: 0.18.1-rc.10-1-g2a088cf02
Welcome to … 0.18.2
There’s something wrong in federating with kbin.social communities, most of the posts are missing.
Example (click to sort by New):
- https://lemmy.sdf.org/c/tech@kbin.social → 4 posts in past 24 hours
- https://lemmy.zip/c/tech@kbin.social → 15 posts in past 24 hours
- https://lemmy.world/c/tech@kbin.social → 14 posts in past 24 hours
- https://kbin.social/m/tech/newest (original) → 17 posts in past 24 hours
A new version was just released. One of the new features is parallel federation, in addition to reduced CPU usage. Hopefully if we upgrade to it, we’ll see reduced federation lag with lemmy.world
To be honest I never notice the lag with lemmy.world but I’m excited for the new version regardless.
Migrating to newer hardware with more memory and cpus pict-rs are being replicated, so you may see some images missing. Please be patient. If you have login/logout issues be sure to completely dump your browser cache to resolve that.
As always, thanks to the admins for keeping things up to date!
Things feel snappier.
Wow! UI: 0.18.1-rc.10 BE: 0.18.1-rc.9-1-gf0e487f18 is so much better. What a fun holiday weekend for everyone. Thank you for still being here!
I’m keeping an eye on this PR
Once that one’s merged it should massively improve database performance under load. Instead of doing tons of full table reads with joins to the communities table, it’ll be doing much smaller, faster reads. Currently those full reads happen for every up/down vote.
Converting those blind full-table scans with joins into smaller targeted reads is gonna be a performance gamechanger
Edit: it was just merged!
Currently UI: 0.18.1-rc.7 BE: 0.18.1-rc.4 pict-rs is now running on a separate machine.

UI: 0.18.1-rc.9 BE: 0.18.1-rc.9-1-gf0e487f18
Welcome to Lemmy v0.18.1-rc.4 This may have resolved the memory leak that we were experiencing which caused the occasional site timeouts.
Is there a way for a user to check what version of Lemmy SDF Chatter is using?
If you scroll to the bottom of the page it shows the version on the bottom-right. Currently says BE: 0.18.2 The BE stands for Back-End. Sometimes the Front-End of Lemmy gets updated separately from the Back-End, hence the distinction.
Thank you!
