In anticipation of Lemmy's upcoming 0.19 release, and to work out any final issues, we're going to deploy a test release on lemmy.ml within the next few days.

We're doing this testing on lemmy.ml only, so that we can encounter any issues before the release, and to make sure the upgrade process is smooth for other production servers.

Some of the following will happen during the process:

  • Apps will likely break (only for lemmy.ml)
  • Lemmy.ml may experience some downtime for the upgrade to complete (ideally no more than an hour).
  • If anything goes wrong, we may have to restore from a database backup, meaning content made in between backups may be lost.

If all goes well, we'll have an official announcement for the release after this testing period.

I apologize for the difficulties this might cause. At most this will be a week of hair-pulling, but its vital that we catch any issues before telling other servers to upgrade.

I'm using the Liftoff app, which is broked.

On the main page it says "Something went wrong" and has a Try Again button which leads back to the same failure.

On my user profile under settings it says:

Error: type 'Null' is not a subtype of type 'int' in type cast

Has anyone experienced trouble logging in through Jerboa app? Jerboa crashes every time I try to log into this instance, but other instances log in fine.

[–] Vladomo@lemmy.ml 1 points 11 months ago

Yes, the exact same was happening for me. Jerboa would crash and android would show me the notification "this app has a bug" whenever I tried to login. Now using Eternity for Lemmy and that is working smoothly.

EDIT: all good, I worked it out, I found some other api docs.

Is the ModeratorView listing type in this release? If so what feed view is it available in? I can't see it in the lemmy.ml webUI at the moment, nor in the API docs, but the code is merged.

I have two accounts, one on feddit.de which runs stable all the time. But my older account here on lemmy.ml seems broken in the last week:

  • ~~I can't see my own new posts in profile, comments work.~~
  • post and comment upvote-count is at zero.
  • ~~log in with jerboa let the app crash.~~

Edit: last one got fixed with new jerboa update
