We had been waiting at 0.18.5 for a while because 0.19 came with some federation bugs (and obviously it would be extremely embarrassing if this instance had issues in that department).
The biggest changes for users are a new scaled sorting method that should prioritize posts from smaller communities (no more Risa dominating the entire feed), the ability for users to block whole instances, and the ability to import/export accounts with other instances (or just back up your account).
Also I'd like to apologize for the downtime; we expected this to be a simple update taking only a few minutes, so I didn't post an alert in advance, but then were some issues that caused us to go offline for several hours.
Lastly, after the update I found I had to clear my browser cache/cookies in order to log in, similarly, users using apps have been reporting they needed to remove and re-add their accounts. You may find you need to do that too!
EDIT: The app Liftoff has a bug preventing login on any Lemmy instance over v0.19.0
EDIT 2: We've updated to 0.19.3, mostly just bugfixes in this one.
You're viewing a single thread.
In Mlem you need to confirm your account before deleting it from the app, so I actually had to delete the whole app
Works now though.
Glad to see this as I did all the above and it’s still not working in Mlem. I’ll give this a try though.
Yeah try deleting the app, check your phones storage in settings > general > storage and search for Mlem. If you delete it it will remove all data from your phone, then you can reinstall and sign in again.
Got home and giving it a shot now, I’ll write back for others seeing it too. 👍
Edit: You we’re 100% correct, deleting the app worked perfectly. Removing the account from Mlem did nothing and clearing browser cache did nothing. Weird bug for this version. 🤔
