Hello everyone!

I’m going to be taking the server down on Sunday to apply system updates, as well as migrate us to running across multiple lemmy containers.

Currently we do a nightly restart of lemmy / lemmy-ui at 2am resulting in a 2-3 minute outage (visible on our status page). This change will make those restarts transparent so I stop getting alerts on my phone.

I’m current planning on starting this at 11am PST on Sunday Feb 18th and will probably take about 30 mins.

Edit: All done! We’ve upgraded to postgres 16 as well.

    so I stop getting alerts on my phone

    Sounds like my normal change justification reason. Is the change about performance? Reliability? Upgrade? Bug fix? Nope. Personal alert threshold exceed.

      Pretty much. I’d like to be able to set the alerts to actually make noise and alert me, rather than just me seeing it on my phone during awake hours =)

      Also it really bothers me to see all those red lines at https://status.lemmy.ca/
