Y'all are so nice and transparent here. This place is lovely, unlike Reddit and their admins lol.
I can only wish you the best. You are an amazing person for signing up for all of this.
Good luck. This is my favorite instance so I will be eagerly awaiting. Lemmy has been incredible and strangely what I needed. I would doom scroll reddit and see the same posts and the same comment chains and just redundancy hell.
Lemmy feels so different and the community is so welcoming. Thanks again everyone for making this lost Redditor a found lemming (is that the correct term lol).
Is it wise to do a big deployment on the day when you may receive a massive influx of new users from Reddit? The API changes take affect on the 1st.
It's a bit of a lose lose situation tbh because if we don't upgrade then the first experience those new people are gonna have of Lemmy is an unusable All feed and a broken Jerboa.
My other account is on lemm.ee and the admin there contributes a lot of fixes to the software (plus has been working with Ruud to figure out our federation issues). He upgraded us a couple days ago and it's been amazingly stable given that it was only a day after the rc1 disaster.
Ultimately I trust that he and Ruud know what they're doing, but sometimes with an untestable situation like the size of .world you just have to pull the trigger and hope it works.
Liftoff is working great. Jerboa should be held off on for now because it can't handle different server versions. Different server versions WILL always be an issue in a federated environment.
It's funny because a Jerboa fork posted a few days ago in their community can handle different versions like a charm. The oficial app should make that a priority.
Crossing my fingers for everything to work out well. Iโm looking forward to being able to log into Jerboa.

Good luck with this!
Thank you so much for your hard work! I deeply appreciate it.
Happy to be here. o7
You have the support of Dragon of Dojima. We'll take out reddit ourselves. You have my word
And my hammer!
What happened? Or is this not yet done? Sorry Iโm kinda lost in the whole CET timings.
@ruud@lemmy.world said they'd be starting the upgrade in about an hour and a half. If you're in the US that's 11 AM pacific / 2 PM eastern.
I am probably one of many refugees coming from Reddit. Here is hoping lemmy grows and grows well.
US people: This is 2p EDT today. I had to look it up, so I thought I'd save you the trouble.
EDIT: I'm assuming that Ruud means CEST (the summer daylight savings time version of the time zone that's currently being used there).
CET pulls up central European timezone for me on google
Yes, but CET isn't being used right now. Its daylight saving version, CEST, is.
That's what I assume Ruud actually meant, since CET is not technically an active time zone right now.
Bailing out, you are on your own. Good luck.
This hasn't gone well! Fingers crossed it sorts itself out without a rollback.
My outdoor BBQ Im hosting starts at the same time as the lemmy upgrade. See you all on the other side and good luck LW admin!
Nice work with everything so far, really liking it. What all is being changed/fixed in the new revision? Is it just more efficient code to support higher site traffic?
Super responsive, and I can login using Jerboa 37!
