@pixelfed I upgraded my instance today, it went very smoothly. I am enjoying the Direct Messages feature.

The most recent update sent my docker containers spinning! Will have to sit down and figure out what's causing that! That said, thanks for the stellar work you folks do!

@sriperinkulam I've seen my staging crash, too. Haven't had the time to look into it yet

@tercean
I thinks it's something to do with the latest mariadb container. Your latest pixelfed container works well with older versions of the DB.

@sriperinkulam it's the upgrade from mariadb 10.4 to 10.5, the crash logs are not compatible. You'll need to either shutdown a 10.4 container cleanly, or remove the redo logs (which could lead to data loss). I'll write something up to do the upgrade.

@pixelfed great!!! =) I’m going to upgrade my instance ASAP. thank you for this wonderful software. :)

@pixelfed

yay 🎉 Thank you for your hard work!! Can't wait to experience it. 👏

PS What's the easiest way as a normal user to determine what version of Pixelfed is currently running on my instance? Thanks.

On the bottom of every page there is a link "Powered by Pixelfed". If you hover over it with your mouse it will show the current version.
@pixelfed Just upgraded my instance very smoothly as well. 🎉

This seams to be the new important command:
php artisan instance:actor

@pixelfed

Yes! I’ve waited forever for the Instagram import. 🎉

@pixelfed How did I miss this toot, since I've been waiting for this update for some time. I'm going to install my first pixelfed instance soon! #byezucc
