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

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.

Tried to logout, website on mobile won't release my session, and when I tried to login on jerboa it said password incorrect, not sure if that's a ui issue or a lemmy.world issue though

Looks like it works, but it's very slow - 25 seconds to load the page. https://i.imgur.com/ghiofDC.png

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

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:

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

See you on the other side

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

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

Seems to have worked! Typed from Jeboa :)

I hope it works! I'm so over posts just spawning into a page that is already loaded.

Working for me currently on connect for Lemmy.

Thanks

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!

Feels very sluggish for me

Latest version of Jerboa on Google Play doesn't work with servers below 0.18;

For those who want to use Jerboa to access lemmy.world before the upgrade to 0.18.x happens, you can install a specific release from GitHub instead of Google Play. I found version 0.0.34-alpha to work (using it rn to post this). https://github.com/dessalines/jerboa/releases/tag/0.0.34

Edit: since the update is done, it's probably best to go back to latest version. Glad I helped someone!

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!

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

Things look better. Thank you for the updates!

Countdown in case you're not sure about the time zones -> 🔴

Logging in doesn't work - returns 404 record not found. Resetting password does log you in though,

Thanks everyone for your hard work!

Instance got faster now, but still impossible to log in after you've cleared cookies.

Do logins work for anyone else?

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