The upgrade to lemmy 0.19 has introduced some issues that are being investigated… but we currently have no fixes for:

  • thumbnails break after a time. Caused by memory exhaustion killing object storage processes.
  • messages to/from lemmy instance not yet running 0.19 are not federating. I believe it requires bugfixes by the devs.

~~I’ve re-enabled 2 hourly lemmy restarts. Hopefully this will help with both issues, though it will result in a disruption to the site around every couple of hours.

When the hourly restarts are disabled I’ll unpin this post. As any other issues are identified I’ll post them here too. ~~

Update: I’ve disabled the 2 hourly restart after upgrading to 0.19.2… lets see how this goes…

Update2: no issues seen since the upgrade, looks to have resolved both the memory leak and the federation issues. Hooray :)
