We’ve upgraded lemmy.world to 0.18.1-rc.1 and rolled back that upgrade because of issues.
(If you had posted anything in those 10 minutes between upgrade and rollback, that post is gone. Sorry!)
The main issue we saw is that users can’t login anymore. Existing sessions still worked, but new logins failed (from macos, ios and android. From linux and windows it worked)
Also new account creation didn’t work.
I’ll create an issue for the devs and retry once it’s fixed.
Edit Contacted the devs, they tell me to try again with lemmy-ui at version 0.18.0. Will try again, brace for some downtime!
Edit 2 So we upgraded again, and it seemed to work nicely! But then it slowed down so much it was unuseable. There were many locks in the database. People reported many JSON errors. Sorry, we won’t be on 0.18.1 any time soon I’m afraid…
Dang, I updated Jerboa too hastily, time to figure out how to downgrade back to 0.34
I don’t see version 0.0.34 unfortunately, but here are some options. I think apkmirror is a safe source. https://www.apkmirror.com/?post_type=app_release&searchtype=apk&s=jerboa
For the future; there are apps that can save your apk’s, so you can always downgrade if necessary. Check out on f-droid for open source apps that you like. I have been doing this for years, because it happens quite often that an app version is buggy or they suddenly add annoying features and then you can instantly downgrade.
Yep, I was able to use F-Droid to download and install the older version (either using official F-Droid app or Aurora Droid), it’s just not something I’ve had to do often.
All release versions are available on github. https://github.com/dessalines/jerboa/releases
The only issue I’m having is the pop up when I open it. Otherwise it works fine, but I was already logged in.
I’m using 0.35 and have no issues with the 0.17.3 server. I was already logged in though. I’m also using [email protected] though, works with all instances I have an account on.
The 0.34 crashes on startup… Unless I put it in airplane mode to navigate to the login page, then it works fine. 0.35 doesn’t crash on startup, but will not let you log into Lemmy.world. Rough growing pains.
Then I’d use liftoff for now as app. To be honest, I like that app a tad more then Jerboa.
Everything is pretty experimental now. The fast growth due to Reddit’s harakiri is showing some issues not yet thought off. ;)
I tried 0.35 and I still can’t log in. Says the server version is too low. I’m using Thunder now but I’ve heard good things above Jerboa and really wanted to try it.
I’m messing about with Liftoff at the moment. Works well and I could login on lemnmy .world as well as others. (.ml and .studio)
