Lemmy Cafe will be having its database upgraded.

Reasons

  • PostgreSQL 17 has been released and the changelog is promising a lot of IO improvements. Lemmy sure could use it given the constant stream of small events flowing in.

Plan

  • Point nginx to the maintenance page
  • Shut down PostgreSQL 16
  • Run the upgrade tool
  • Start up PostgreSQL 17
  • Point nginx to lemmy

Expected downtime

About an hour, if things go well. More if not so.

Will try to keep the maintenance page updated.

Here's the timezone converter.
