What's up, what's down and what are you not sure about?

Let us know what you set up lately, what kind of problems you currently think about or are running into, what new device you added to your homelab or what interesting service or article you found.

I tried to update my lemmy instance and it all went so horribly wrong. DB never came up, errors everywhere, searching implied I updated to a dev branch sometime in the past (not a dev, don't think I did) and it'll be console and DB queries for a fix.

Ran out of time and overwhelmed, I restored backups and buried my head in the sand. Nope, not now. Future, yes, but oh not now.

Sometimes we get so engrossed in what we're doing we can't see the problem(s). I do that a lot, so I have take a break. Same with creating music. You get so deaf to what you are trying to write that nothing sounds good no matter what you do. In the words of Snoop Dog, 'I had to back up off of it and sit my cup down. Tanqueray and chronic, yeah, I'm fucked up now.'

Take a break.

A while back, the docker installation instructions just had "lemmy:latest" as which version to pull. The Lemmy devs aren't the brightest, and the beta versions are included as "latest". Now the instructions have you put the specific version to pull, like "0.19.10".

I wonder if that's what happened?

I had that problem once, just had to delete a duplicate db function
