Curious if there is a specific update schedule when the site goes down for maintenance/when the latest releases are loaded or if it’s ad-hoc?
The website going down seems to be due to load (though CPU and RAM levels are fine so not sure what’s going on), I’ve updated to 0.18.3 and will keep monitoring the site
Any schedule on 0.18.4. I’m having a few comment related bugs that are fixed in 0.18.4

Yeah me too! It’s pushed me to make a backup instance. Whether Tom is just a busy boy or something is wrong, I think this instance needs more admins.
Great, thanks. Appreciate all the hard work.
Really a question for @[email protected], but, If the last update was a guide: new version gets released, another instance (usually lemmy.world as they have a large well-funded infrastructure) jumps on it and updates, everyone waits to see if something breaks and then most of the big instances install it.
I’d imagine, if there was a patch for a critical security loophole, then all the admins would move quickly on it but it’d also likely be quite a small patch so relatively easy to do without disrupting the business as usual.
Do you know if this is a single admin instance? I’ve noticed some issues gong back a month or so and @[email protected] hasn’t posted in over 2 weeks.

I don’t know the answer to that.

Technically, as long as he keeps the lights on and installs updates then he doesn’t have to post much.
Very true! But I know first hand how easily life can get in the way and things like servers are amongst the first things forgotten.
Without a secondary admin things can go south quickly, so an active admin can be reassuring.
To be honest, admin reliability is pretty much a deciding factor which instances to choose.
Thanks though!

Understandable and I’d be interested in an answer to your question. I’d hate to get invested here only for it to disappear overnight.
