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.
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.
Yeah this is how I understand it. Whilst HTTPS creates a secure tunnel between you and the website, due to DNS your ISP can still see you are connecting to that website.
