Hello,
while preparation our upcoming Lemmy update we're also be updating to a newer database version, which will provide additional performance benefits and functionality.
We are planning for around 10 minutes of downtime for the database update between 19:00-19:30 UTC on 22nd of February. This is not yet the planned Lemmy update, we will be announcing that separately when we are ready.
edit: You can convert this to your local time here: https://inmytime.zone/?iso=2025-02-22T19%3A00%3A00.000Z
edit 2: The database upgrade has been completed successfully.

Hey, don’t be so hard on him. His account is only 16 days old.

Is that a UTC minute or an EST minute?

You shouldn’t take advantage of her, it’s not fair

I'd be pleased if a time was also mentioned that relates to the local server time; and I don't even care which time zone. I can convert from all five zones way faster than loading a javascript-tainted URL, cursing, going back, reopening in a private window, enabling js, reloading, closing.
No worries though.

local server time is UTC.
time in UTC is included both in the title and the post itself.
Serinus@lemmy.world · 7 pts · 1y
In the winter, we're -5. In the summer, we're -4. Winter and summer being defined as when the clocks change for daylight savings.
It's good to know even if you just have a link sometimes.
Edit: This is just from my memory. It could be more complicated than this.

Isn’t it more like -4 for a couple of weeks in spring and autumn?
Serinus@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 1y
You know, I'll edit and make it clear that I don't know what I'm talking about. You might be right.
Perhyte@lemmy.world · 6 pts · 1y
EST is UTC-5, so tell your friend that it'll be between 14:00-14:30 EST on the 22nd of February.

Just repeat to yourself, “It’s just a site. I should really just relax!”

Best of luck on your restore-from-back-up test tomorrow! 😉

What will I do with my life during that downtime?

That’s what alt accounts on other instances are for. Fediverse, baby!

I need to come up with a creative username. But you are correct.

I have no idea what time that is and I figure I will probably be sleeping

Are you a sleepy eepy zeppo?

Which functionalities are you interested in?
ruud@lemmy.world · 27 pts · 1y
For me the faster
VACUUMwould be reason enough to migrate :-) But I think overall it's best to keep up-to-date and a few minutes downtime is worth it.MrKaplan@lemmy.world · 13 pts · 1y
incremental backups might also be something worth looking into
slimerancher@lemmy.world · 4 pts · 1y
I always thought it's just something you say, whenever upgrading to anything newer. Even if there are no additional benefits.
PlasticExistence@lemmy.world · 4 pts · 1y
One benefit is that you have a tested upgrade path if you keep up with versions. If you don’t and you make big jumps in version when you update, there’s a chance that you’ll run into an untested situation that causes an issue.

Good luck with the update !

What about "read-only friday"? :)
Rooki@lemmy.world · 8 pts · 1y
I would say it is rather opposite for a volunteer driven team. "Read only-Mo-Fr " because we have more time on weekends in general.
vikingtons@lemmy.world · 4 pts · 1y
sick one. Thank you for your efforts.

Awesome thanks! Appreciate you all doing the update!
