We just successfully upgraded to the latest Lemmy version, 0.9.10, probably the last before the v1 release.
This addresses some of the PM spam that everyone has been getting. Now when that user is banned and we remove content it also removes the PMS. So hopefully you won't see them anymore!
Over the next couple days will be planning for our migration to our new server as our current server's contract has ended. I expect the down time to last for about an hour, if not shorter. You'll be able to follow updates for the migration by our status page at https://status.reddthat.com/
Normally this update would be a week in advance and more nicely formatted that turns out the contract ends on the 25th and I don't want to get charged for another month at a higher rate when I just purchased the new server.
See you on the other side,
Tiff
EDIT:
22 Mar 2025 02:42: I'm going to start the migration in 5 mins (@ 3:00)
22 Mar 2025 03:01: that was the fastest migration I've ever done. pre-seeding the server and Infra as Code is amazing!
We've turned off our crypt donation p2pool (as no-one was using it), and two of our frontends, alexandrite and next (for the same reasons)
Time to celebrate with some highly accurate Australian content:
HI from the other side? Was it really that quick?
Yup, it's up!
All seems good from here so far.
