I feel like your taunting of the stability gods is uncalled for, they don't like things like "small release" and "downtime shouldn't be long". However, thanks very much for sitting on a Saturday night and doing an update. Feddit.uk admins are best admins and wish you the best of luck with it!

I upgraded https://sappho.social/ without issue, but now I've said that something is definitely going to go wrong. Sod's law and all that.
You're bringing it upon yourself at this point 😂
Huzzah, we're back! Thanks flamingos. How did it go?
Damn, you're fast. The upgrade itself went fine, but Hetzner decided to throttle the speed to our backup to <3MB, so pushing the DB backup took an hour. We're currently doing the pictrs backup and that's going to take forever.
Also, the backend version number seems to have messed up? Not sure why that is, but should be an easy fix once I track it down.
Edit: version number seems to be derived from the git tag. Doesn't seem worth to bring it down again to fix it.
Haha, pure luck - hope you get through it soon! All seems okay from the user side so far, I'll shut up now and not jinx anything more!
Hey flamingos, can we get some more details please?
Is this happening right now? This post is an hour old, have you gone down and come back up or is it to happen later today?
I needs my fix of No Kings drama and you're scaring me I won't get it!😝
It's happening at 10 PM BST, like in the title?
Welp, I am an dumb dumb and didn't notice that. Sorry!
10pm it looks like.
