Hello,

we will be performing the long awaited update to Lemmy 0.19.9 tomorrow.

We are planning for around 1 hour of downtime between 16:00-17:00 UTC on 16th of March.

You can convert this to your local time here: https://inmytime.zone/?iso=2025-03-16T16%3A00%3A00.000Z

You can find an overview of the changes in our previous announcement here and in the Lemmy release notes:


Update 16:50 UTC:

The upgrade was successfully completed at around 16:27 UTC, but we're still fighting with some performance issues after the upgrade. Our database and the outbound federation container are currently using significantly higher CPU than expected, which is still being investigated to identify the root cause.

I can't wait! We'll finally get to do a real world test for the parallel sending features!! And if all goes well I'll get to save 5 Euro a month!

Thanks LW

Only when they enable it ๐Ÿ˜†. We are also here waiting with excitement but it's nice to know there is someone else that can be the guinea pig ๐Ÿ˜‹

Final bullet point here says otherwise: https://lemmy.world/post/23471887

I'm not a dev/programmer, but does the version number starting with a zero suggest that Lemmy is still in a pre-release state? Like alpha or beta or something? If so, what needs to happen before it gets to version 1.0? Just curious! From my layperson's perspective, Lemmy runs great and I have no complaints about it, so I'm not sure what v.1.0 would look like. Or maybe it's all internal stuff that I'll never notice anyway?

It's a bit of a shame we don't see any significant new features in this release. Piefed seems to be developing at a much faster pace compared to Lemmy, which is a bit embarrassing tbh.

It is in Python so that is to be expected:-). Fwiw Lemmy's search feature is still vastly superior. Everything else, I would say that PieFed either ties or exceeds the Lemmy experience, sometimes greatly so, and often there is simply no equivalent at all (like user customizable and shareable Feeds, which act like multi-Reddits).

Mostly though, if you are happy with the Lemmy app that you use, then it's all good. Though PieFed is coming up strong to provide competition, which can only be a good thing for the entire Fediverse:-).

Good luck!

Looking forward to the webUI supporting defined thumbnails per post.

I am looking way forward to posting images with alt text! They brought that in for 0.19.4 and it's the one thing that I've been really feeling the lack of on here since the start.
