One of my #favorite #fediverse stacks so far is @writefreely . Not a #blogger, but it's #beautiful simple #interface that I can't not #love it.

Just wrote my FIRST #blog at https://write.firesidefedi.live/@ozoned . Just had to say how nice it is to get my thoughts out there about someone that impacted me.

Important: Temporary Image Downtime Part 2

lemmy.zip/post/32581423

lemmy.zipImportant: Temporary Image Downtime Part 2 - Lemmy.zipHi All, Needing to do some image migration, so for a short while images will be offline. Cloudflare might cache a few for a bit, but new posts won’t have them. Quite rare these days I need to do this level of maintenance but hopefully once complete, the site will be a bit speedier and we’ll be in a better position long term. There’s currently about 400gb of images so this work should help alleviate some pressure on the system. Thanks Demigodrick Edit: Quick calc says this could take over 8 hours :( Edit 2: 6 hours later it’s 41% done, so my maths is way out. There’s like 10 more hours to go? Sigh.

Lemmy Release v0.19.9

lemmy.ml/post/25864324

lemmy.mlLemmy Release v0.19.9 - Lemmy# Lemmy v0.19.9 Release ## What is Lemmy? Lemmy is a self-hosted social link aggregation and discussion platform. It is completely free and open, and not controlled by any company. This means that there is no advertising, tracking, or secret algorithms. Content is organized into communities, so it is easy to subscribe to topics that you are interested in, and ignore others. Voting is used to bring the most interesting items to the top. ## Changes This version fixes a potential security problem, by preventing Lemmy from accessing localhost URLs. There is also a fix for a crash during markdown parsing. Lemmy now uses mimalloc [https://microsoft.github.io/mimalloc/] instead of the system allocator (usually glibc), which should improve performance and prevent unlimited memory growth over time. ### Lemmy - Error handling for thumbnail generation [https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/pull/5298] - Use mimalloc as memory allocator [https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/pull/5378] - Additional security checks for URLs [https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/pull/5338] (details [https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/security/advisories/GHSA-7723-35v7-qcxw]) . Security Advisory [https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/security/advisories/GHSA-7723-35v7-qcxw] - Fix crash while rewriting markdown [https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/pull/5395] - Fix peertube federation [https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/pull/5381] - Append attachments to comments [https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/pull/5143/files] (@flamingo-cant-draw) - Enable site languages for new user [https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/pull/5235] ### Lemmy-UI - Enforce required validation on signup answers [https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy-ui/pull/2865] (@anhcuky) - copy thumbnail URL during crossposting [https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy-ui/pull/2877] (@anhcuky) - Adding a bottom-margin to spoiler details tag. [https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy-ui/pull/2882] - Fixing login password limits. [https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy-ui/pull/2904] - Adding zh-CN as default for zh lang. [https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy-ui/pull/2939] - Updated translations ## Upgrade instructions There are no breaking changes with this release. Follow the upgrade instructions for ansible [https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy-ansible/blob/main/UPGRADING.md] or docker [https://join-lemmy.org/docs/en/administration/install_docker.html#updating]. If you need help with the upgrade, you can ask in our support forum [https://lemmy.ml/c/lemmy_support] or on the Matrix Chat [https://matrix.to/#/!OwmdVYiZSXrXbtCNLw:matrix.org]. ## Thanks to everyone We’d like to thank our many contributors and users of Lemmy for coding, translating, testing, and helping find and fix bugs. We’re glad many people find it useful and enjoyable enough to contribute. ## Support development We (@dessalines and @nutomic) have been working full-time on Lemmy for over five years. This is largely thanks to support from NLnet foundation [https://nlnet.nl/], as well as donations from individual users [https://join-lemmy.org/donate]. If you like using Lemmy, and want to make sure that we will always be available to work full time building it, consider donating to support its development [https://join-lemmy.org/donate]. A recurring donation is the best way to ensure that open-source software like Lemmy can stay independent and alive, and helps us grow our little developer co-op to support more full-time developers. - Liberapay [https://liberapay.com/Lemmy] (preferred option) - Open Collective [https://opencollective.com/lemmy] - Patreon [https://www.patreon.com/dessalines] - Cryptocurrency [https://join-lemmy.org/crypto]
