I want to update Lemmy-UI to fix a couple of bugs and update the backend to hopefully fix the federation issues.

Before doing that, of course, I want to make a snapshot to be able to revert!

Hopefully all goes well :)

How are you running Beehaw? At least on my Proxmox VMs I can take a snapshot in a few seconds thanks to ZFS having it built in and QEMU guest agent letting the host ensure the guest is properly stopped quickly.

Just wanted to tell you both good luck. We're all counting on you.

It's already done but thank you!

It was a reference to Leslie Nielsen's line in "Airplane".

P.S. And don't call me "Shirley".

I've never watched this movie but ok, Shirley.

Snapshots are my least favorite operations operation. It takes a long time, blocks other work, and you have to name your snapshots

The two hardest tasks to get right in computer science are cache invalidation and naming stuff.
