Back with another instance update.
We've just completed the update to Lemmy 0.19.8 which should take care of the pictrs thumbnail problem. As always please contact me if you notice anything out of the ordinary.
This week we also launched a new community- Help and FAQ. I've added a few common things to the community to get us started with hopes that we can fill it out as the instance grows. Our friends around the fediverse are also invited to help populate it with information that might be useful to someone discovering Lemmy for the first time or new to federated social media. Crossposting is always welcome!

Thanks to everyone having fun with us in our local communities! We're continuing slow and steady growth of subscribers and community engagement at !gardengrooves@walledgarden.xyz, !weedtime@walledgarden.xyz, and even !loweffortmemes@walledgarden.xyz. If seeing new names is great, seeing return posters and commentary is awesome! You guys are the best and I appreciate you all for contributing in your own ways. ๐
Finally, a shameless plug that WG is open to new members. I spent some time this week updating sidebars and creating resources for visitors to get a better sense of what kind of place WG is. If it sounds like it might be your type of place we'd love to have you.
See you around!
