[Update: Failed again] Update to 0.18.1-rc.1 tried and rolled back
We've upgraded lemmy.world to 0.18.1-rc.1 and rolled back that upgrade because of issues.
(If you had posted anything in those 10 minutes between upgrade and rollback, that post is gone. Sorry!)
The main issue we saw is that users can't login anymore. Existing sessions still worked, but new logins failed (from macos, ios and android. From linux and windows it worked)
Also new account creation didn't work.
I'll create an issue for the devs and retry once it's fixed.
Edit Contacted the devs, they tell me to try again with lemmy-ui at version 0.18.0. Will try again, brace for some downtime!
Edit 2 So we upgraded again, and it seemed to work nicely! But then it slowed down so much it was unuseable. There were many locks in the database. People reported many JSON errors. Sorry, we won't be on 0.18.1 any time soon I'm afraid..
Jerboa is almost unusable for me at the moment. A lot of crashes, pages not loading, messages not sending etc. But I know that's inevitable at times. Restarting my phone seemed to make it worse. But I know you guys are on it! 👍
I'm impressed as well, I don't even like web apps, but God this looks amazing, and even better for me because I have an Android device and it has been ages since I used Apollo lol.
Too much traffic going through the app, as he explained it. I would try to link the post, but everything is so janky on both Lemmy.world and our wonderful Apollo clone that I can’t be bothered.
Liftoff is a much better app. I used Jerboa as well but found an alternative cuz it was pretty much unusable. Just dowload Liftoff's latest apk and install
How did you install it? I was using the app through the Google Playstore and for some reason the app was really unstable and buggy. I ended up installing the app from F-Droid and it is drastically better and much more stable.
