[Done] New try at upgrading to 0.18.1 July 1st 20:00 CET
We'll give the upgrade new try tomorrow. I've had some good input from admins of other instances, which are also gonna help troubleshoot during/after the upgrade.
Also there are newer RC versions with fixed issues.
Be aware that might we need to rollback again, posts posted between the upgrade and the rollback will be lost.
We see a huge rise in new user signups (duh.. it's July 1st) which also stresses the server. Let's hope the improvements in 0.18.1 will also help with that.

Looks like DB's struggling under the load 🤔 Any chance to move DB to the separate server?
It's not the DB
Oh, do you mind to write something regarding these upgrades, when you'll have time? I think lemmy.world could be one of the highest load rust apps :) Interesting how tokio and axum will show itself.
As I understand it, only pictrs is stateful, right?
In that case, have you considered running Lemmy from a separate dedicated vm (if you aren't already)?
Then again, I'm sure you got better things to do than listening to a shore wall captain like me ;)
