Just updated :) The broken “feature in local” function made me paranoid and I’m glad it fixed now.
I’ll probably update within a week as well :)
WordPress has automatic updates for core, plugins and themes. I’ve never had any problems with it, running a very basic WordPress site. Would something like that be possible for Lemmy?
I doubt it tbh. A static wordpress site is infinitely less complex than something that constantly needs to take in and distribute content from/to thousands of endpoints with potentially many different api versions on the other side.
Im not that deep into activitypub stuff but from my understanding, automatic updates are not really a good idea in this case.

Do you know what “figure of speech” means?

Fair enough. It was kind of an exaggeration i guess.
Yes, I could easily configure our Podman containers to auto-update, but given how there have been significant breaking bugs in Lemmy releases before, I think it’s better to not automate it.
Thanks for the post, it persuaded me to get off my bottom and add another one to the list.
Well done!
I’m surprised that there are still instances out there running 0.18.2-rc2 or 0.17.0. Those versions are full of bugs and miss so many features.
I scrolled to the bottom, saw there was 1 instance still running 0.16.6 lol, I clicked on it and saw it’s actually still active, there are recent posts there. Amazing.
Edit: all from 1 user lol no upvotes, might even be a bot.
What’s the easiest way to pop up a server? I tried yunohost but the lemmy code is very old now.
“Easy” might just be relevant to your experience. You can follow along with the Ansible instructions, or go your own way with Docker and Docker Compose.
Both methods require a bit of work to get spun up, but it’s not too bad.
