[Completed] Lemmy.World update to Lemmy 0.19.9 on 16th of March, 16:00 UTC

Hello,

we will be performing the long awaited update to Lemmy 0.19.9 tomorrow.

We are planning for around 1 hour of downtime between 16:00-17:00 UTC on 16th of March.

You can convert this to your local time here: https://inmytime.zone/?iso=2025-03-16T16%3A00%3A00.000Z

You can find an overview of the changes in our previous announcement here and in the Lemmy release notes:

Update 16:50 UTC:

The upgrade was successfully completed at around 16:27 UTC, but we're still fighting with some performance issues after the upgrade. Our database and the outbound federation container are currently using significantly higher CPU than expected, which is still being investigated to identify the root cause.

  • It's a bit of a shame we don't see any significant new features in this release. Piefed seems to be developing at a much faster pace compared to Lemmy, which is a bit embarrassing tbh.

    • It is in Python so that is to be expected:-). Fwiw Lemmy's search feature is still vastly superior. Everything else, I would say that PieFed either ties or exceeds the Lemmy experience, sometimes greatly so, and often there is simply no equivalent at all (like user customizable and shareable Feeds, which act like multi-Reddits).

      Mostly though, if you are happy with the Lemmy app that you use, then it's all good. Though PieFed is coming up strong to provide competition, which can only be a good thing for the entire Fediverse:-).

    • considering that we're coming from 0.19.3, this does still introduce quite a few bigger changes for LW.

    • piefed.dbzer0.com you cowards!
