Upgrade complete.
We will be upgrading to Lemmy v0.19.1 on 2023-12-21 12:00 UTC+8. During this time, this instance will be temporarily unavailable for approximately four hours as we perform the maintenance.
You can view the instance status updates here.
We apologize for any inconveniences.
Thanks for letting me know! I could hold back from upgrading to v0.19 for a while to avoid Shinobu downtime (or other problems), also considering that people might be using third party apps that aren’t v0.19 compatible yet.
Yeah, I think it is fine. db0 should update pretty quickly now that 0.19 is finalized. I tried a couple third party apps and the support is all over the place. The one I use the most is Boost which now supports both 0.18 and 0.19 (but still doesn’t support spoiler tags). Last I checked, Jerboa still didn’t support 0.19. If you are going to wait for third party apps, then it is a losing proposition. The improvements that are coming with 0.19 are really nice and probably worth some potential shinobu outage (especially with improvements coming in pict-rs as well).
Just to follow up on this that db0 updated pythorhead to be 0.19 compatible. So, all good to go!
Also, paging @chaorace@lemmy.sdf.org to give you a heads up to update your pythorhead.
Nice! I’ll push through with updating to Lemmy v0.19 this Thursday then.
