lemmy.zip annoucements
The same rules as the main instance apply here.
All good, thanks for your efforts
FYI the discussion under the upgrade announcement included comments about a minor bug affecting Voyager web app and Memmy users where we could comment using logged in accounts but trying to access our account details resulted in a 'user doesn't exist' type error
No errors again after the rollback
Thank you - appreciate the patience too.
I think that was probably related to the db getting corrupted. Something went seriously wrong with the migration but it seems unique to this instance, and replicating it without using live data is almost impossible unfortunately.
Shout-out to backups
No worries. This kind of stuff is bound to happen while building the foundations for something this intensive. Take your time and get things right. Anything that can be done to prevent loss of data like this should be the biggest priority, imo.
Yeah I agree, we're having discussions on changing infrastructure so we can spin up clones of the site to do testing on before pushing to live, but this would be too big/intensive to host on the VPS we're on so looking at alternative dedicated servers which would probably be better value than spinning up two VPS instances, which is what we have to do at the moment.
The federation propagation seems bugged now, posts and comments from here aren't properly propagating onto other instances! I can't see my two recent polls about favorite Pokémon on the other forums. How long is it until this is fixed?
I can see a post from you if i go to https://lemmy.ml/c/pokemon from about an hour ago - is this the one?
Is it the one about the Pokémon genes? I've noticed it spread from Lemmy.zip to Lemmy.ml, but not to Lemmy.world as well.
I can currently see it on lemmy.world
The posts seem to be propagating now...
There is definitely an issue, we can see it in the logs, but I think its slowing down federation.
It seems to be catching up... the missing Pokémon posts I made are starting to appear on Lemmy.world.
No worries!
Btw, is it intentional that you are using the lemmy icon with the ears and whiskers in front instead of the fixed one? :D
Haha I just thought it looked cooler to me, makes it stand out more.
