Update: The maintenance has been completed!

Welcome to 0.18.1! Hopefully you'll notice some much needed UI tweaks as well as several performance optimizations.

I am still going through things and making sure everything looks good, but so far, I have not detected any major issues (fingers crossed). If you do have any problems, please comment below!

Original annoucenemnt below:


0.18.1 is coming!

As I mentioned in a previous post, this upgrade will require brief downtime. I will try to keep it as short as possible, but I can't guarantee an exact window, so if you really can't wait for lemm.ee to be back online, then the best advice I can give is to check back every 5 minutes or so.

As with any update, please be prepared for unexpected side-effects. If we find any major issues, then we can always roll back to good old 0.17.4. If we just find some minor issues, then most likely the overall experience will still be better on 0.18.1, so in that case we stay on 0.18.1 and try to get any potential issues fixed in 0.18.2. In either case, if you see anything weird after the upgrade, please report in the comments!

Finally! I've been browsing lemmy.ml so far. That feed flooding was really untenable.

[–] Maffrow@lemm.ee 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Is there a way to choose to have the post previews show like previous rather than just the post title? Not sure if it’s a bug or a design choice. Hopefully it can be an option in settings.

If I log out and then back in I see this message. If I go back and refresh, it's gone. You asked me before to check languages in my settings, but that box has never worked right for me. If I highlight a language and hit the x nothing happens. How is that box supposed to work.

Hey, I got the issue that was posted here for rc1 https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy-ui/issues/1657

using apps like Mlem or Memmy works fine, but the browser just shows everything empty and the UI is not responding to anything. Switching the browser language to English like suggested in the github issue solves this, but using my standard browser language(german in my case) doesn't work.

Edit: Well a workaround was to switch my broser language to english, so that everything was working, then change the language in the lemm.ee settings from "browser default" to german(note that it was "browser default the entire time and this site was always english with 0.17.4 despite my browser being german).
Now it's working with my browser set to german, and it even keeps the language german when I change it back to "browser default". But when I set it to english, it's no longer working. Then I have to change my browser language to english again.

Where can I find the release announcements? I thought in only saw 0.18.1.rc.1 only yesterday.

[–] sunaurus@lemm.ee 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

There's no announcement for 0.18.1 yet, but we skipped 0.18, so everything from that release is new for us as well! You can check the notes for 0.18 here: https://lemm.ee/post/261997

[–] npastaSyn@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I am confused. The title and context of your post says 0.18.1. Does that mean 0.18.1.rc.1 then? Or was it a typo?

[–] sunaurus@lemm.ee 2 points 1 year ago

We are on 0.18.1.rc4

[–] Odo@lemm.ee 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Something weird that I'm seeing, on the communities page, the "Meta (lemm.ee)" community is listed as having 68 posts, but when I visit the actual community, I only see three posts, is that expected?

[–] thegiddystitcher@lemm.ee 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Hmm doesn't seem to be doing that for me. Do you have "undetermined" selected under your language settings (as well as any actual languages you speak)? I've seen some people missing posts based on having accidentally unselected that.

[–] Odo@lemm.ee 1 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

That was my first thought too, I have "browser default" selected (which should be English), so I don't think that's it.

Edit: Okay, I got things mixed up, "browser default" is a setting for the interface language. On my language settings I had 0 languages selected (I don't know how it got changed? Or if that's the default setting.) I selected Undetermined and English, but I'm still only seeing three posts (the 3 most recent, I think).

[–] sunaurus@lemm.ee 1 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (3 children)

Do you possibly have "Show Read Posts" unchecked in your profile settings?

BugReport

On your posting, https://lemm.ee/post/485546 the current comment count on the top of the posting is inflated. From a remote instance, I edited my message, and I think the bug still exists where the count on the postings is incremented even though there are not new messages and only edits. See GitHub issue: https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/issues/3334

\o/

(The CSS is messed up the post images overlap the post titles, which aren't visible against the dark bacground. That's darkly, darkly-red doesn't have the colour issue but images still overlap)

Bug Report

I have a login that I think you rejected or not yet approved from a week or so back. "RoundSparrow". And when I try to login on 0.18.1 on your server, I get no error message, it just comes back to the login form. I even tried a wrong password to see if it gave an error, and nothing.

P.S. Lemmy.ml is lagging so badly in getting messages incoming, your posting hasn't shown up on lemmy.ml copy of the community, so I'm using my test instance and a test account. Your last two posts, before and after the upgrade, are not on lemmy.ml: https://lemmy.ml/c/meta@lemm.ee?dataType=Post&page=1&sort=New

Bug or design choice...

I notice when reading directly on your server, that the URL parameters are not part of the link.

The darkly theme stopped formatting text correctly for me, all text was black on a black background and so unreadable. I’ve changed to darkly-compact (presumably a new feature?) and that seems to have solved it.

[–] thegiddystitcher@lemm.ee 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Possibly a silly question but have you done a hard refresh (ctrl-f5)? That fixed a lot of similar stuff for me. Currently on darkly with no apparent problems.

[–] Noit@lemm.ee 1 points 1 year ago

I’m on mobile (iOS) so don’t have a hard refresh option.

Bug Report

When I save changes to my profile, my display name and description, it does not save. No error message when I press the Save button, no "saved" toast message either.

EDIT: Ok, I narrowed it down. If you put in too long of a Display Name, everything you changed gets lost and there is no failure toast message. I tried to set my Display Name to "RoundSparrow @ lemm.ee" and I had to shorten it for the save to work.

[–] Odo@lemm.ee 2 points 1 year ago

I was also having issues with saving my settings (I was only changing my languages) and it took like 3 or 4 tries for the changes to stick. It may not be related to your display name change
