I was just wondering: Instead of testing these potentially disruptive changes on the main website, why wouldn't you make some testing instances where people can try everything out, like voyager, enterprise, and ds9 were back in the day?

Great news!

I can sign in with a web browser, but this broke Jerboa for me

I lumme some lemmy with that lemony fresh scent

I got randomly signed out this morning, maybe this has something to do with that.

Honestly, I have some problems with this update (and some things I'm super happy about too of course), I hope my feedback is seen so the problems can be made aware:

1. I'm not a fan of new comments having yellow, the contrast is poor at least on darkly-compact and it just looks weird and out of place. I'd suggest maybe making them a slightly lighter or darker shade of the existing color to make them stand out, not an entirely different color.
2. It seems the main page/posts pagination uses pageCursor instead of page number now, whereas profiles still use page number. Using pageCursor is an SEO downgrade and usability downgrade, it's a weird decision IMO if that was intentional and not a bug.
3. I think I might have run into a bug, Lemmy no longer seems to save my upvotes or something. When I upvote some posts on the main page/posts list, even if I wait a few seconds, or 10 seconds or even 30 seconds, when I refresh my upvotes are gone. ~~This one seems fixed now?~~ Nevermind, it's broken again, very weird.
4. With "Top Day" sorting, there used to be multiple pages of posts, now sometimes I don't even get a full page of posts: https://i.imgur.com/4LiZzJG.png (it looks like it's showing posts from only one community, I have it set to subscribed communities but I'm literally subscribed to like 50 different communities) but other times I get one full page of posts plus multiple other posts which is how it always behaved before 0.19. Since it seems to be inconsistent, I'm thinking that's a bug.

I would probably suggest on holding off on releasing 0.19 for now, it does seem like a really large release so it might be better to make sure it's fully polished and ready to go.

I'm super glad upvoting comments doesn't discard the comment you're writing, that's a huge improvement. I also see import/export settings, that's super awesome, I absolutely love features like this!

Thank you for your hard work, Lemmy is such a cool platform.

This is super exciting!

How much longer will it be before I can finally log in and use boost or liftoff. Is there a timeline for a fix? Both have been broken since the update.

Is there an update on the state of the update?

When I look at my subscribed list, I see lots of posts for communities I am not subscribed to.

Voyager on Android seems to be working fine. 👍

Thank you for the heads up and for all the work you do. Im proud to be a part of the O.G. server!

Is it normal that on an upgrade, users are forced to re-login?

Sounds good to me

When I vote on a story while not logged in, it silently fails on 0.19-rc8

If i go on my profile, i cannot see post made on an another instance :'(

Cheers. hopefully other apps will catch up a soon as the upgrade gets implemented across the lemmyverse

I’m thrilled to be able to use 2FA now, because I’m able to get an otpauth URI to feed to pass!

Why are images breaking?

I was about the blame one of the android apps developers for breaking comments.

edit: This one was written from a browser. Apps don't like this new version.
