- Comment on Why no upgrade to 0.19.x? 4 months ago:
I’ve started the preparation steps to minimize the maintenance window needed for this upgrade. These operations are running some background tasks and once they are done I’ll make an announcement to give everyone a few days heads up of the anticipated upgrade time and date. Should be soon.

Hey!
The best way is to @TheDude on our matrix channel. This action triggers notifications across all my devices, creating a barrage of alerts that almost always grab my attention, a.k.a a ddos to my sensory system.
@kersploosh@sh.itjust.works explained it well. It was related to a small bug on the pictrs service that I’ve already reported which they quickly fixed in a newer version. I will tackle this upgrade at the same time as I get this instance up to v19

Hey,
I did some research on this.
I will not share the list of accounts as I feel its everyone right to vote and to have their own opinions whether they align with yours or not.
I will however say, Its mostly the same accounts that are down voting you. The majority of the accounts are over 2 months old with content generated by them (they do not seem like bot account). There are a few that are just 10 days old. 99% of the down votes are from other instances with feddit.uk and feddit.nl being the primary source of them.

The big email email providers are not liking the amount of email coming from the server ip. The permanent fix is to use a mail sending service. I do plan on making that adjustment soon.
In the meanwhile send me a dm with your username and email address used and I’ll verify the account for you.
Thanks

- Comment on New Lemmy version released, Please give updates on upgrade for this instance. 11 months ago:
Hey all, I’m always excited to upgrade to the latest versions that become available. Unless the upgrade is related to security I will tend to wait a few days to give other instances a chance to share their experiences. Before upgrading I usually go over the issues that have been submitted to help understand the risks and solutions to mitigate them.
That being said the new version does bring in a whole bunch of performance gains (mostly related to the database) that i’m looking forward to.
Lemmy.world is due to upgrade later today and I plan on upgrading shortly after them (either Monday or Tuesday).
I will put up a notification up prior to the upgrade.
Thanks
- Comment on sh.itjust.works not sending any emails? 11 months ago:
Hi there,
Some providers are rejecting mail from the IP. In the meanwhile send me a PM with your account name and email and I’ll get you sorted.
Thank you
- Comment on Has there been any postmortem on the sh.itjust.works outage? 11 months ago:
Hi all,
I somewhat explain some of the recent downtime here sh.itjust.works/comment/1341394
Postmortems are really great when they are done well and you have a team of sysadmins to collaborate with. As you probably know most instance operators and moderators are volunteering their time (and sometimes money) to keep these instances online. As the lemmyverse matures in age and development things will get better. In the meanwhile there will be some hiccups along the way.
When I have some extra time I plan on sharing more details about all of this. In the meanwhile check in on our chat. I’m pretty active there and can always provide additional insights on whats going on during an outage.
