[Completed] Possible Lemmy.World maintenance and update to 0.19.15 on 26th between 09:00-13:30 UTC
Hello World,
we may be performing an update to Lemmy 0.19.15 on Friday.
We don't know for sure yet if we will have time to prepare and then do the update, but we'll try to squeeze it in to have it deployed this year still, as we would otherwise have to postpone it to next year.
We are planning maintenance within the time frame from 09:00-13:30 UTC on 26th of December. Actual downtime within this window is expected to be significantly shorter, maybe 15-30 minutes due to a DB migration, but we don't know yet when it will be, or if we'll be able to fit it in here at all.
You can convert this to your local time here: https://inmytime.zone/?iso=2025-12-26T09%3A00%3A00.000Z
You can find an overview of the changes here:
The most notable user-facing changes are the following:
- Comments are no longer shown as edited in the default web interface, provided the edit was within 5 minutes of the comment being posted
- Length of user profile bio has been increased to 10,000 characters
- Community sidebars now have a search field in the default web interface
- Search can be limited to post title only
- Moderation actions on deleted users federate properly
- Pagination limit using non-cursor pagination has been limited to 100 pages max.
This should only be relevant for developers and users of clients using the legacy method for pagination, although it isn't common to scroll through 100 pages either way. Using cursor navigation is recommended and does not impose this limit.
Update 10:55 UTC: the update has been completed successfully
i spent way too much time trying to figure out what day 0.19.15 was on my calendar. i may need a break
It's the zeroith day of the 19th month in 2015. Seems pretty obvious.
Lousy Septovembarch weather
Were zero indexing the months now
You’re not alone.
well i mean its a holiday we all high
I’m working on it. 😁
Glad to see it isn't just me
I will be sure to update my profile bio to lorem ipsum poste haste
I immediately thought of going some variant of the navy seal copypasta
Merry Christmas and thank you for providing this instance.
I can imagine some neat applications of that, like posting public keys or something.
That seems to be a typo. It has been increased from 300 to 1000, not 10000.
I hope you have wonderful holidays and always appreciate what you do!
I too like to live dangerously.
One day later:
Anytime is fine, even next year. Don’t rush if you’re all busy.
Scheduled updates always make be feel good. I get excited to see what is new or improved.
I'm disappointed and somewhat mad at the world right now.
Am I allowed to at least try to be happy here?
I dunno, Merry Christmas! 🎄
merry xmas and thanks for the work.
BTW, I have not been able to see the second page of all (as in subscribed/local/all) for the past week.
Ok thanks
When's the next impossible maintenance and update planned?
Damn. I actually need this for emotional reassurance; so that’s on you bub.
