What is Lemmy?

Lemmy is a self-hosted social link aggregation and discussion platform. It is completely free and open, and not controlled by any company. This means that there is no advertising, tracking, or secret algorithms. Content is organized into communities, so it is easy to subscribe to topics that you are interested in, and ignore others. Voting is used to bring the most interesting items to the top.

Major Changes

Upgrade instructions

Follow the upgrade instructions for ansible or docker.

If you need help with the upgrade, you can ask in our support forum or on the Matrix Chat.

Thanks to everyone

We'd like to thank our many contributors and users of Lemmy for coding, translating, testing, and helping find and fix bugs. We're glad many people find it useful and enjoyable enough to contribute.

Support development

We (@dessalines and @nutomic) have been working full-time on Lemmy for over three years. This is largely thanks to support from NLnet foundation, as well as donations from individual users.

If you like using Lemmy, and want to make sure that we will always be available to work full time building it, consider donating to support its development. A recurring donation is the best way to ensure that open-source software like Lemmy can stay independent and alive.

Perhaps not major, but I'd just like shout out my PR which was merged in this release:
https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy-ui/pull/2322

It adds another view to Registration Applications to show only denied applications, helpful for identifying spam applications and rule circumventers. I know a few people have been asking for something similar to this.

Excellent work folks. Bug fixing is not sexy (even more so in open source projects), but greatly appreciated 👍

thank you for your work

Hi there! Looks like you linked to a Lemmy community using a URL instead of its name, which doesn't work well for people on different instances. Try fixing it like this: !lemmy_support@lemmy.ml

👀 that was fast.

Thanks guys!

0.19.2 fixed federation so it was the best release, but this is fine too. :)
