Hello,
we will be performing the long awaited update to Lemmy 0.19.9 tomorrow.
We are planning for around 1 hour of downtime between 16:00-17:00 UTC on 16th of March.
You can convert this to your local time here: https://inmytime.zone/?iso=2025-03-16T16%3A00%3A00.000Z
You can find an overview of the changes in our previous announcement here and in the Lemmy release notes:
- Lemmy v0.19.4 Release
- Lemmy v0.19.5 Release
- Lemmy v0.19.6 Release
- Lemmy v0.19.7 Release
- Lemmy v0.19.8 Release
- Lemmy v0.19.9 Release
Update 16:50 UTC:
The upgrade was successfully completed at around 16:27 UTC, but we’re still fighting with some performance issues after the upgrade. Our database and the outbound federation container are currently using significantly higher CPU than expected, which is still being investigated to identify the root cause.
Congrats on the successful upgrade 🎉
Test
Do you think you guys could do a post on the underlying hardware/infrastructure of .world? I would love to see what it takes to run the largest Lemmy instance lmao
Are the comment upvote and downvote numbers gone intentionally?
That’s cool, but it doesn’t seem to work for me. I have all on in my settings:
But the numbers don’t show:
Apparently they’re next to the timestamp now (you can see the “↑ 4” on your screenshot, and if you sort this post’s comments by Best, the Futurama meme shows as “↑ 87 ↓ 1”)
I might be a bit confused, but I just went to my settings to see, and both “show upvotes” and “show downvotes” were ticked already, by default. I refreshed the page (Ctr+Shift+R), and it’s still the same.
(Copying from my other comment)

URL Blocking, at last. Now I can block all those AI shit websites on my communities :D
And being able to comment on locked post, what a nice QoL enhancement :D

Huh? How? I don’t see anything about this in the six linked changelogs.
In 0.19.4, section “Moderation enhancements”
But this is about admins being able to block URLs, not about mods of communities.
Finally, the ability to view (and delete!) your own uploads.
FYI, the sorting on the uploads tab is broken. Obviously I don’t expect sorting by “top” or “controversial” or whatever to work, but sorting by “old” doesn’t, either. It’s always sorted by newest first. But at least it’s something. (I know for sure I have images uploaded that were not used in posts.)
