Edit: Updated lemmy to 0.18.1.rc.10 and lemmy-ui to 0.18.1.rc.11. ARM64 images on Docker Hub.
Hello, guys.
As you might've noticed by the downtime, I decided to upgrade the server today, because I pretty much failed yesterday, due to migraine.
๐ Good news: The server is now running the latest version of Lemmy, 0.18.0.
๐ Bad news: There are still some issues that may or may not affect usability. But so far, things seem to be pretty minor.
This version of Lemmy brings a bunch of performance- and usability optimizations, for instance:
- WebUI looks sleeker
- Better editor
- Resubscribing to Communities that show "Subscribe Pending" should actually subscribe now (works with lemmy.ml communities, but not lemmy.world, for instance, partially fixes this)
- 2 factor authentication (2FA) is now a thing*
- Custom emojis are now possible (maybe someone wants to make some FOSS emojis?)
- Improved error messages (no more white screens)
- Error messages during login and registration are finally fixed (fixes this)
Some issues I encountered so far:
- CAPTCHAs were patched out temporarily, so we're going to switch to manual approval in the meantime (GitHub Issue)
- "couldnt_find_object" error during search (GitHub Issue)
- *2FA implementation is not well done for non-tech-savyy users and might lead to self-lockout until password reset is issued (GitHub Issue)
โ ๏ธ In case you encounter more issues, please let me know by commenting underneath this post or by posting in /c/fossware_support.
