Ladies and gentlemen, Beeple of all creeds; I stand before you today amid a smattering litany of scripts and testing to say this:

Beehaw production (this site) will be going READ-ONLY at 10pm ET today, May 20th.

This is to finalize the data for migration and moving to the new Beehaw instance, which will be on the latest Lemmy release (0.19.9). There will still be some work to be done and quite possibly a few things not set right. But this is the next step in our migration process. https://status.beehaw.org/ will also be down and not reporting for this timeframe.

I expect the migration to be done within 24 hours; testing shows it should be less time ~ 6 hours but this timeframe gives me a bit more leeway to muck around. When the site is back up, you should easily be able to tell. You can also join the discord or matrix chat to talk amongst yourselves and periodic updates on the migration.

Thank you for your patience and understanding.

Early days but the site seems orders of magnitude more responsive - not sure if its because of the new Lemmy version or because of reduced user activity from the migration but wow it is night and day

I think it's a combination. But kudos to the lemmy devs for improving the responsiveness of the front end for sure. It is a a noticeable improvement.
