Warning: Be careful, this might trigger this bug here: https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/issues/3422#issuecomment-1616112264

Have you considered running your Lemmy instance on more than a single machine? If it is possible to run two lemmy containers anyway (ie, lemmy is not a singleton), why not run them on separate machines? With load balancing you could achieve a more stable experience. It might be cheaper to have many mediocre machines rather than a single powerful one too, as well as more sustainable long-term (vertical vs horizontal scaling).

The downside would be that the set-up would be less obvious than with Docker compose and you would probably need to get into k8s/k3s/nomad territory in order to orchestrate a proper fleet.

Special thanks to the other guys for helping make this update possible. Site is snappier than ever and the UI looks fantastic.

Nice, really liking the update! Some questions about development for the fediverse: Is the code for running Lemmy written by one or person or a smome core team?

Is there any decision making process as to which features will be worked on in the next release or which bugs to prioritize?

In theory what would happen if the original developers started making changes that other people don't agree with? Would we get a fork then where servers have to choose to adopt it or not?

My first comment on here! Thanks for creating this, this looks fantastic and a great Reddit alternative. Keep up the great work.

Thanks for the update. I especially like the transparency on not only the “upgrade” itself but also the potential issues encountered, together with the solutions. Seems rare nowadays, or I’m just seeing less and less people doing this.

Fuck yeah upgrade hype

Really like seeing posts like this that explain what's going on. Thanks for all the hard work!

Thank you! I love it here. Sending good vibes

I am still getting errors half the time I do anything while using jerboa

Website is working great though

Edit: It's suddenly working a lot better now. Hopefully I am not jinxing myself.

Thanks! Seems to be working fine so far.

Excellent. Now I can login with jerboa 🎉

This looks like it’s exposed some weaknesses, and it sounds like the team has it under control.

I’m moving right now and can’t dedicate time to development, but once I’m up and running I should be able to start contributing.

Scalability is always a concern with these sites, so there’s plenty to do to improve that

Awesome work guys! The NEW front page of the internet is born.

Thanks! Now I can use Connect™ for Lemmy without problems. 👍🙂

Is there a issue with the api? ( Because the api wrapper lemmy-js-client doesnt work on login. ) I tried it yesterday but not today yet. I will test it when i can :)

I like it.
The site feels a lot better to me, and seems significantly gentler in terms of browser resource consumption.

I can't login from my main browser even if I clear the cache and cookies, if I use other browser it works

Edit: I fixed it just by changing my browser language to English and restarting it, hope this is useful for someone.

Also, thanks to Ruud and team for the hard work, everything seems to work really well and fast.

Thanks a lot, you’re great

Thank you!!

We're back baby!

I really enjoy how lemmy is growing!

Its been pretty snappy for me all afternoon! No errors to speak of.

Nice work!

This is really cool that this gets shared. Thanks for all of the info!

Is there a way to follow the update status while this instance is down?

I knew the update was coming, so I expected the downtime, but I could not find any info about when it was expected to be up and running again?

Thanks for the great and ongoing work put into managing this endeavor!

I really enjoy how lemmy is growing!

Thanks so much for everything!

Hey man I just want to say thank you for your hard work.

Nice

I survived!

Great stuff!

We're alive!!!

Thank you :)

I really enjoy how lemmy is growing!
