We've just updated to the latest version of Lemmy which comes with a ton of bug fixes and an updated UI without websockets (yay, easier debugging).

You can find the full changes over at https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/releases/tag/0.18.0.

This also appears to have fixed an issue with connecting to kbin instances. You should now be able to search those up in the same way as other Lemmy communities: !community@domain, but let us know if there's any issues!

Lol, see I thought the move away from Websockets was a bad call on their part, namely because of the reasons they gave for doing so. But, if it makes debugging easier, then that works too. xD

Be curious how the load on the server changes moving back to HTTP instead.

[–] Stumblinbear@pawb.social 0 points 2 years ago

Websockets cause continuous strain on servers regardless of if the user is even interacting with the site

With HTTP/2 or even 3, it should be much less load overall. Especially if they optimize their API a bit better.

The darkly theme looks a tiny bit broken in some places. darkly-red looks more polished for some reason.

Mind taking some screenshots of the problematic areas?

This UI already feels way better for reasons I can't even quite describe. Nice!

Also, apparently there's emoji now... Just the implementation is a bit... jank XD

Searches occasionally render the error "couldnt_find_object" here for me. I can't quite tell if this only started happening after the update or not since I'm quite new here.

It does seem like it is a new issue since 0.18.0.
