Does this have anything to do with the issues earlier today (maybe 9-10 hours ago)? After several failed attempts to open new messages or reload the page, I got a message stating that the server was rebooting, and a couple minutes later everything was working fine again.

That's probably when I ran a quick upgrade from 0.19.2-rc-5 to 0.1.9.2! If I know it will take only ~5 mins I usually just go ahead without notice.
... and just hope nobody else notices? 😆 I figured something was going on and it would be back shortly, but I also know sometimes servers do thing that admins weren't aware of, figured I would just check in.
Yeah, since it is such a short downtime - comparable to what one might randomly see anyway when the CPU spikes for a mysterious reason, I figure that it is not so helpful to plan ahead and make an announcement. I just do it when I have some time.
Horrors upon horrors.
😅 I have read and re-read the migration guide. Seems simple enough.... And the current backup is almost ready!
Whenever I say that when trying to do a docker container, I feel like Sideshow Bob making friends with rakes.
...I kind of chose the worst time ever to migrate to this instance, didn't I? [laughs]
I hope that the upgrade goes well!
....Sorry 😅
And welcome!
Thanks for the welcome!
On other matter: I'm planning to create a Linguistics community here, would it be OK? I noticed a few comms about other human sciences, but asking it to be sure.
Sure! Thank you for creating a community!
