Not that we'd get them during maintenance but this is a good reason to have some kind of DM system.

So how does this work..is there a beta server to try it on? Or it worked in resting and it only broke with the full amount of users?

After the update I can no longer log in or interact with Jerboa. Hopefully y'all resolve this soon, as I am really digging Jerboa, but thanks for letting us know what's going on, and keeping up the good work.
There's a major breaking change in the 0.18 update (moving away from Websockets for posts and comments), that means that older Jerboa builds no longer work with instances on, or past, that version, and newer Jerboa builds won't work with servers older than 0.18.
Version fracturing is probably going to be a fact of life on a decentralized platform like lemmy, a "good" app should probably handle cases for the latest few revisions instead of just the latest.
It normally would, it's just that 0.18 is a breaking change, incorporating a major rewrite of how posts and comments work on Lemmy.

FYI, my UI is currently a bit buggy after the second rollback.
create post UI:
expanding the menu messes up the header:

Is there any place that people can assist in trying to figure out issues?
Well you can either help the devs via their Github, or if you wanna help sysadmin the server I can send you a link to our Discord.
Thanks for the response, Going to look into the github/code side but I may reach out in the near future to help where needed. π
Thanks for the update! (I mean the communication regarding the update) 0.18 moved away web sockets right? Maybe that leads to different DB access patterns causing locks on such a big instance as lemmy.world.

Im already in lemmy 0.19.0
this comment is from the future
@ruud Lemmy is empty for me right now. I was able to browse in 0.18.1, but it was really slow and tons of JSON problems.
What apps work for android?
Check here for an overview: https://lemmy.world/post/465785
Basically all except for Jerboa

Iβve found from hopping around some other instances that have upgraded to 0.18 that it is still pretty buggy. It does seem to be giving more information about the errors, instead of just failing like in 0.17, but spend any time browsing on those instances and youβre bound to be inundated with JSON and query errors. It also seems to get worse the longer you browse.
The UI changes are nice, and I do appreciate not having my feed auto-updating constantly, but I think youβd be making the right choice to hold off on upgrading until they can iron 0.18.1 out all the way. Iβm not super knowledgeable about TS and Rust, but as a user it seems that switching from WebSocket created/shined a light on Lemmyβs issues with caching in general.

Oh. Good luck with the next try!
So are we stable now? I lost some posts and comments this morning.
Yeah we won't try again until a stable version is released with the performance issues fixed..

Running one of the largest and most vibrant Lemmy instances certainly makes this deployment a great test case for the devs and the system overall. @ruud@lemmy.world this community really appreciates you!
~~RC2~~ RC4 was just released, here's hoping it solves the issues you were experiencing with performance of RC1!
