Like, we’re in an interesting era of times where so many alternatives are cropping up because of the drastic and draconic practices that have been taken on the social media platforms we’ve commonly embraced. But eventually, starting new can get tiring after a while.
One of the great things about Lemmy is that you can control your user experience. No algorithms, no “suggestions” being forced on you, no ads, no data mining, no spez/Musk/Zuck. So curate my Lemmy space heavily and enjoy the peace and quiet and slow pace. R*ddit was my only social media for years so Lemmy is similar enough to that to be familiar and useful, but different enough to be worth using.
I couldn’t get a recording or pick out any lyrics because it was in a supermarket and there was a lot of background noise. But if you’ve heard the song, I think the title might be enough. It had a very sparse instrumentation, drums fairly prominent, male singer, very strong melody.
We’ll give the upgrade new try tomorrow. I’ve had some good input from admins of other instances, which are also gonna help troubleshoot during/after the upgrade....
A lot of improvements, but some weird problems. Jerboa finally allowed me to log in but not much else. Connect is working better, but won’t allow me to reply to one particular post (“incorrect language” or something). The browser version and wefwef are slow and glitchy - my comment about birds ended up in a conversation about Lemmy apps. I don’t know anything about tech stuff but I get the impression that people are working very hard to fix all the issues. And the spezidus wouldn’t be making things easy. Looking forward to a bigger better Lemmy!
Didn’t change my password, just reinstalled the app and logged in. But it won’t let me post, reply, check messages, reply to messages etc. So not really worth it at the moment.

For the past day or so every time I try to open Jerboa it just crashes immediately without an error message why. Is there any scheduled update/fix for Jerboa? I'd like to be able to browse on mobile again and really enjoyed the app while it was working....
Well it was as laggy as the other apps, because of the update and the increase of signups. Also I found it difficult to navigate, to find the right buttons to push to access a certain thing. I know it’s early days and I’m sure your app will improve in time, and I’ll try it again later.
I'll be collecting food scraps for the birds that visit my yard, maybe taking a trip to take a break from where I live, some grocery shopping, and hopefully catch up on some sleep if I can.
Jerboa is almost unusable for me at the moment. A lot of crashes, pages not loading, messages not sending etc. But I know that's inevitable at times. Restarting my phone seemed to make it worse. But I know you guys are on it! 👍

Thanks to a comment by @LargeHardonCollider , I checked and saw that 'Federation debugging' mode was enabled. I had enabled that when the server just started (less than 3 weeks ago) and I had an issue with federation....

How close are you to a social media burnout?

[TOMT] [SONG] Quiet, broody modern song, with what sounds like an oboe throughout
