PSA - Lemmy dropped 0.19, your instance may have some downtime (poptalk.scrubbles.tech)

Please, before posting, we've seen a lot of these post saying X instance is down right now, or "is X instance down?". The answer is probably, but it's probably because Lemmy v0.19 dropped and it includes some downtime, upwards of an hour for all the migrations to finish.

Please, hold off on asking/posting for an hour or so. Your sysadmins are waiting for it to come back online.

I chose to take down my production instance of lemmyz do a cp -r of it, update the docker compose file to specify the new version numbers for Lemmy and lemmy-ui plus change the port that the stack exposes and do a docker-compose pull && docker-compose up -d on that stack to check to see if it could all work. Thankfully it did, so I updated the production compose file and tada! I'm on 19.0 safely

Did it in a similar way. I used:

sudo cp -rp

to keep permissions also. Worked like a charm.

Are you using disk storage or object storage for pict-rs? I need a better way to test updates but I'm trying to avoid having to duplicate my storage or risk breaking prod by pointing to my live object storage from a second instance.
