I haven’t updated it for months, thinking it would make sense to follow Lemmy.world’s update cycle, but they haven’t updated for so long and we’re running into federation issues. So I’ll be updating to the latest Lemmy version (0.19.9).
I believe the update process will take about 1-2 hours.
Also, what do you think about Lemmy NSFW’s speed/performance? You can express your opinion in the comments or with the poll. We can make improvements if necessary.

Update: Done. Please comment here if you encounter any issues. Email issues are fixed too.
Nice! I’ve been waiting a long time for you guys to update because I wanted to try out the thumbnail URL feature when creating a new post. Unlike Reddit, Lemmy does not automatically generate a thumbnail for RedGIFs links. Manually adding the thumbnail URL from RedGIFs seems like a good workaround. I tried it on this post: https://lemmynsfw.com/post/22570050
Why is all my pictures showing black box with a arrow, and you have to click it to see it?? It wasn’t like that before
see: https://lemmynsfw.com/post/23117990/10860873
I’ll try to fix it once everything is back on track.
Nice!
All posts look like this for me:
NSFW
I believe the problem is the URLs and thumbnail URLs are now splitted. Thumbnail URLs of old posts may be empty. I will check this issue.
All my posts look like that. If I click edit, the picture downloads again and I can just save and the thumbnail reappears. Guess I know what I’m doing for the next hour.
Edit: someone messaged me to say all my new posts were showing up without the nsfw flag. Didn’t the instance used to be set to auto-flag any new post as NSFW?
I haven’t patched the new version yet.
OK, I am just having to remember to flag it. No biggie.
fixed it 👍
Yay for @yay@lemmynsfw.com 😀👍
Can’t vote because I’m using a VPN but would say the speed/performance is good.
I think normally if I have issues it’s more likely to be down to using a VPN than this instance being slow.
I frequently drop VPN for stiff like this, big privacy risk?
I’d just rather my ISP not see when I’m visiting NSFW sites, that’s why I use it!
That’s what https is supposed to be for. Ok, they might see the IP, but that can be shared.
There’s still DNS and SNI though, both of which are likely transmitting the domain(s) you’re visiting in the clear.
Does the new update bring any new moderating tools or is there someplace I can check for the changes that are coming?
You can check new version announcements from here: https://lemmy.ml/c/announcements?dataType=Post&sort=New
And yes, the problem of remote reports not reaching to our instance is fixed iirc.
Fantastic, thanks!
By the way is there a way for us to automatically have the nsfw flair set for posts on out communities? Alternatively the ability to set a flair if someone forgot to use it?
We started to flag all new posts as NSFW no matter what user picked starting from about a year ago. Is it not working that way?
I thought it was just that the form was set to NSFW by default. I just posted an image and noticed that the flag wasn’t set, and I see that the local view has some posts (local users) that should be NFSW but aren’t. Maybe this modification isn’t working in the new source?
fixed it 👍
Good work 👍
