We’ve finally updated to 0.19 after some serious wrangling with the database migrations.

You need to re-login on your apps, & reset 2FA if you had it

Basically it went super smooth on dev, (because the dev db was super-ish small). Turned out the regular pruning of the activities (sent/received) were not happening on production, so the database had grown to over 90GB!

It’s finally sorted itself and everything is right with the world.

🚀

Cool New Features:

  • Instance blocks, for Users!
  • Import/Export Settings!
  • a 60 minute downtime 😜
  • “working” 2FA

The complete release notes are here: https://join-lemmy.org/news/2023-12-15_-_Lemmy_Release_v0.19.0_-_Instance_blocking,_Scaled_sort,_and_Federation_Queue

Cheers,
Tiff

Edit 1.

There was/is a known bug relating to outgoing federation (https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/issues/4288) which we are hoping to be fixed with 0.19.1-rc1. To ensure we can federate with everyone we have updated to our first “beta” version in production. ‘-rc1’

    Alexandrite authentication is currently broken as we still need to update to 0.8.12 to be compatible with the new authentication flow.

    edit: Alexandrite has been updated and logging in works again

    I’m getting “Error: Incorrect Login” popup while I am reading posts logged in.

    This is new today

      That is interesting. It probably has to do with the new Authorization “features”, and maybe they forgot to fix one of the endpoints. I gather it didn’t log you out right? It’s probably nothing to worry about, but my logs are filled with IncorrectLogin notices.

      If it happens again tomorrow (after 24 hours) let me know ;) It will help diagnosing the problem.
