Already noticing some major improvements in both UI and functionality. So nice to see devs that prioritize improving the platform instead of goofing around with dumbass money making schemes.

I'll wait a few days until it's no longer a rc.
Same; I'm more of a stable guy :P
This is so good!. Haven't even updated yet, and I already see a lot more posts from lemmy.ml on my instance, and no more "Subscribe Pending"
I've been testing for hours, and "Subscribe Pending" went away for the first hour or so after the restart of lemmy.ml - but now I'm getting them again. The underlying issue still seems there.
Upgraded my instance, switched the docker images to 0.18.0-rc.6 and it started right up. Appears to have no issues for me thus far, so hopefully a full release will be right around the corner.
Thank you for sharing.
Already seeing a positive difference on lemmy.ml. Better feed content and no more posts being added constantly to the top when you browse All
I'm curious why especially lemmy.ml wouldn't wait for full release - surely after 6 RCs the full release is imminent?
Or of course, they're stress testing it. Makes sense enough.
Wonder if I can finally sub to lemmy.ml communities...

lemmy.ml is official developer instance, makes moste sense to test it out here after dev servers.
It's probably a combination of testing at scale on a server they control and wanting to get these features out so they can be iterated before a bunch of new users show up.

From my remote instance, I've been subbing to lemmy.ml communuites about every 2 or 3 minutes, and it just now started to jam up. I'm speculating that the server restart fixed the problem for the first hour or so, but now it's back. Open GitHub Issue: https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/issues/3101
It's just so odd that only lemmy.ml communities seem to cause this. Lemmy.world is around as big or bigger and no issue there.
I think lemmy.ml has more posts, comments, likes in the database due to historic reasons - and the backend is timing out, PostgreSQL not keeping up to application timeout. I have seen the problem on Beehaw, Lemmy.world when they are busy and throwing nginx 500 errors on their front page.
I can confirm that.
Not long after you upgraded, I upgraded, and was able to successfully subscribe to things here.
But..... not now. /sadface.
Also- be aware enabling the new 2FA option.... It didn't work too well for me.
Knock on wood, I tested it in an incognito window before logging out- and was able to disable it when it didn't work.
Where can I see the list of changes?
You can load the project directly in GitHub and do a diff between 0.17.4 and 0.18.x.
Here are the diffs (0.18.0 vs 0.17.4)
Can you link it for a non techie?
Awesome news! Looking forward to the finished release.
Can we please not have a default avatar? I specifically want no avatar.
This update removes the captcha option still?
Awesome! Thank you for posting this. I will be updating my instance as soon as I can.
Is the top bar supposed to not be using the entirety of the available horizontal screen space?
