Success?! Hello from 0.18 :)

The UI is a lot smoother. Feels good man.

Edit: servers are very sluggish though. Hopefully this gets fixed without needing to roll back.

Can't you disable the post button within the upgrade progress? It's a shame to see posts to disappear due to it.

Slow, but working.

I don't know if we're slow because of the upgrade, or because of the July rush from Reddit losing 3rd party API access.

Wow, this is much faster now that caches are built.

Looks like the update is showing, but it's been slow since. Hopefully not permanent. Also having issues upvoting.

Looks like it worked! Thanks for all you do @Ruud!

I sadly couldn't use the web version of lemmy.world at all cause of the websocket issues. 0.18+ is gonna be an amazing upgrade fore this instance! All the devs and staff who made this happen have my undying respect.

My lemmy server is also running the same versions are you are now. I was getting timeouts with lemmy.world federation so I recompiled lemmy_server with timeout changes:

Just looked. First 1/2 loads were slow but after that it's lighting fast! I think by not everyone establishing a Websocket connection and just loading once performance should increase a tad bit.

See you on the other side

The last few minutes the site seems to be very fast! Let's hope it stays this way!

The progressive web app had ui issues after the update so I uninstalled it and now I can't figure out how to reinstall it 😕 tried wefwef but that doesn't load anything and can't log in. Happily staying patient though, hoping things smooth out!

yay, instance is back! trying to post timed out two times, this is the third try.

Working for me currently on connect for Lemmy.

Thanks

Update went good so far ;)

looking good so far, the instance is back, testing to post!

New update sure is fire, post making process page is all cleared up!

Do logins work for anyone else?

I created a "in private" Firefox browser session. I can't seem to login through that.

Is this happening now? Everything seems up and running

EDIT: absolutely perfect timing

Seems to have worked! Typed from Jeboa :)

Muuuch faster now. Thanks for all the hard work guys!
