A bit concerning perhaps hold this off for a week or so seems like this is very important moment for the users from r**dit to decide if they want to be here or not.
Bit afraid the application will break with all the new users. Hoping 0.18 could handle a bit more.
That's why it has to be done today. At the moment, Jerboa instantly crashes when trying to access Lemmy, which will definitely scare away new users. My understanding is that this is because Lemmy.World is on version 17, but Jerboa requires instances to be on version 18 or higher. If successful, I believe this would fix the instant crash issue, so we'll at least have an Android app working again.
Hopefully, these are just growing pains symptomatic of a site trying to deal with rapid growth and rapid improvements.
