You may have noticed that Lemdit was down for about 2 hours earlier (if you did notice, then I hope the status page kept you informed).
Below is a summary of what was done:
- Host software updates (some things required a restart).
- Host hardware upgrades - larger SSD installed and Lemdit migrated to it. This was not done out of necessity, but for future proofing.
- VM image back-ups - this is a separate activity to the nightly DB backups
- Lemmy upgraded to 0.18.3 - this version comes with significant DB improvements and required a DB migration.
Overall it took longer than I hoped it would, but I think it was all worthwhile.
Please let me know if you notice any weird behavior from Lemdit.
Thanks for your hard work!
