There was a little hiccup this morning unrelated to the migration tonight. The Lemmy services like to be restarted every once in a while. Once we move to the new hardware I’ll be able to look into implementing a better logging system and hopefully be more proactive when situations like these happen.
The biggest consumer of storage on this instance is related to the image hosting which we use an external object storage provider for. The second is the database which is no were near the 2TB capacity. 1TB SSDs are cheaper than 2TB SSDs and I also didn’t want to spend more than I needed. As other mentioned if we need more space or IOPs in the future, I could accomplish this by adding more drives as a quick fix. This server does not support NVME unless I leverage its PCIe ports but I don’t plan on doing that. By the time this instance gets to the point where 10 SSD drives just isn’t cutting it anymore I’ll probably have come across another opportunities on getting a new server with better NVME support.
I’ve started the preparation steps to minimize the maintenance window needed for this upgrade. These operations are running some background tasks and once they are done I’ll make an announcement to give everyone a few days heads up of the anticipated upgrade time and date. Should be soon.
Hey!
The best way is to @TheDude on our matrix channel. This action triggers notifications across all my devices, creating a barrage of alerts that almost always grab my attention, a.k.a a ddos to my sensory system.
@kersploosh@sh.itjust.works explained it well. It was related to a small bug on the pictrs service that I’ve already reported which they quickly fixed in a newer version. I will tackle this upgrade at the same time as I get this instance up to v19
Hey all, I’m always excited to upgrade to the latest versions that become available. Unless the upgrade is related to security I will tend to wait a few days to give other instances a chance to share their experiences. Before upgrading I usually go over the issues that have been submitted to help understand the risks and solutions to mitigate them.
That being said the new version does bring in a whole bunch of performance gains (mostly related to the database) that i’m looking forward to.
Lemmy.world is due to upgrade later today and I plan on upgrading shortly after them (either Monday or Tuesday).
I will put up a notification up prior to the upgrade.
Thanks
Hey icy,
The decision to block the Lemmygrad instance was less a question of censorship, and more an issue of personal conviction. As a volunteer dedicating my personal resources and time to facilitating a space for users to create, discover, and discuss - not just on this instance, but across the Fediverse - I admit that this choice was made alone, selfishly, without the consent or thoroughly considering the collective opinion of the community. With the above said, sh.itjust.works has had the lemmygrad instance blocked from its first day.
I’d like to also point out that the lemmygrad instance has far more blocked instances than what is currently blocked here. Maybe you can create a post on that instance to see what that’s all about and report back?
