We’ll give the upgrade new try tomorrow. I’ve had some good input from admins of other instances, which are also gonna help troubleshoot during/after the upgrade.

Also there are newer RC versions with fixed issues.

Be aware that might we need to rollback again, posts posted between the upgrade and the rollback will be lost.

We see a huge rise in new user signups (duh… it’s July 1st) which also stresses the server. Let’s hope the improvements in 0.18.1 will also help with that.

    Been here for a month~. Other than a few growing pains it’s been pretty smooth. An initial learning curve on the whole instance/lemmy/fediverse thing and learning to sort by all/hot or active instead of just “local” to get ALL if the lemmy-verse instead of just your own instance. Once you learn how to use it it’s a much better experience the reddit. Right now it’s getting the reddit hug of death. But it will survive and flourish.
