Did it in a similar way. I used:
sudo cp -rp
to keep permissions also. Worked like a charm.
Comment on PSA - Lemmy dropped 0.19, your instance may have some downtime
nimmo@lem.nimmog.uk 11 months agoI chose to take down my production instance of lemmyz do a cp -r of it, update the docker compose file to specify the new version numbers for Lemmy and lemmy-ui plus change the port that the stack exposes and do a docker-compose pull && docker-compose up -d on that stack to check to see if it could all work. Thankfully it did, so I updated the production compose file and tada! I’m on 19.0 safely

Are you using disk storage or object storage for pict-rs? I need a better way to test updates but I’m trying to avoid having to duplicate my storage or risk breaking prod by pointing to my live object storage from a second instance.
