Update The upgrade was done, DB migrations took around 5 minutes. We'll keep an eye out for (new) issues but for now it seems to be OK.

Original message We will upgrade lemmy.world to 0.18.3 today at 20:00 UTC+2 (Check what this isn in your timezone). Expect the site to be down for a few minutes. ""Edit"" I was warned it could be more than a few minutes. The database update might even take 30 minutes or longer.

Release notes for 0.18.3 can be found here: https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/blob/main/RELEASES.md

(This is unrelated to the downtimes we experienced lately, those are caused by attacks that we're still looking into mitigating. Sorry for those)

I want to be able to ban/hide entire servers. Regularly seeing lemmynsfw celebrity communities pop up in All/Hot :| (I have nsfw disabled, so it's just generic photos of random women.)

Also an option would be nice to hide downvoted posts, I had that on in RES.

Block the user "madness", its literally one guy posting that shit.

[โ€“] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

maybe now, but if Lemmy grows that will be a good feature to have.

[โ€“] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

Ah, I hid celebrities, 196, and a bunch of other communities so I wouldn't have to scroll through it. But certainly I see where ignoring an entire federated host would be helpful.

The Connect app ( [email protected]) has both word filters and instance-blocking, I believe.

Thanks, but I'm a PC only user.

Keep an eye on [email protected] which is being developed as a Desktop-first Lemmy client. Someone already requested instance-blocking there. Not sure about word filters but why not ask?

I don't want to hide everything I've voted on.
