I’m not sure if that’s only on Reddthat and 0.18 servers (I’ll go check out my account on beehaw now), but I’m getting shown posts very near the top of the list from, like, 20-30 days ago, sometimes even going as far as a year or two ago. They haven’t that many upvotes or comments either. Anyone seeing that?
I tested on my dev instance, and the restart took just over 1 second. So I figured it would be fine. Glad its working as you expected it now.
