This weekend I’ll be working to upgrade AZ to lemmy 0.19.4, which requires changes to some other back end supporting systems.

Expect occasional errors/slowdowns, broken images etc.

Once complete, I’ll be making further changes to enable/tweak some of the new features.

UPDATE: one of the back end component upgrades requires dumping and reimporting the entire lemmy database. This will require ~1 hour of total downtime for the site. I expect this to kick off tonight ~9pm Perth time.

UPDATE2: DB dump/re-import going to happen ~6pm Perth time, ie about 10 minutes from this edit.

UPDATGE3: we’re back after the postgres upgrade. Next will be a brief outage for the lemmy upgrade itself… after I’ve had dinner 🙂

UPDATE34: We’re on lemmy 0.19.4 now. I’ll be looking at new features/settings and playing around with them.

      Logged in and it was set to default off for me too. Likely an oversight with the new update.

      Thanks for the tip.

        Nope, still all showing as 0. It seems like its not every post though. So perhaps its a federation issue and will catch up. I note most avatars are also notnloading but I had assumed it was an image cache issue as per other comments on the update. Still could be client. I’ll double check at home later.
