What is Lemmy?
Lemmy is a self-hosted social link aggregation and discussion platform. It is completely free and open, and not controlled by any company. This means that there is no advertising, tracking, or secret algorithms. Content is organized into communities, so it is easy to subscribe to topics that you are interested in, and ignore others. Voting is used to bring the most interesting items to the top.
Major Changes
This version fixes the problem of comment context not loading properly. It also fixes a couple other bugs.
Support development
@dessalines and @nutomic are working full-time on Lemmy to integrate community contributions, fix bugs, optimize performance and much more. This work is funded exclusively through donations.
If you like using Lemmy, and want to make sure that we will always be available to work full time building it, consider donating to support its development. No one likes recurring donations, but they’ve proven to be the only way that open-source software like Lemmy can stay independent and alive.
- Liberapay (preferred option)
- Open Collective
- Patreon
- Cryptocurrency (scroll to bottom of page)
Upgrade instructions
Follow the upgrade instructions for ansible or docker. There are no config or API changes with this release.
If you need help with the upgrade, you can ask in our support forum or on the Matrix Chat.
any fix for the instances updated column falling out of date? or maybe expanding the window to 5 days instead of 3 days? or instances with 2 day old updated column could be rechecked daily?

I don’t think I was able to find an issue or pull request about this on Github so I haven’t been able to track its progress
I was gonna file a bug on Github but one of the required fields is a log file, but I don’t currently have this issue on my own little instance
Where’s the best place for feature requests? Would love to see a nicer way to subscribe to communities.
Best place would likely be their Github issues section, here’s the one for Lemmy backend/server, and here’s the one for Lemmy-ui for UI/frontend requests which is what you’re looking for.
Could we get some more feature parity in the old.lemmy by chance? There’s no ability to block users, and you should be able to block a group without going into it first. (Let’s give you an example here. You don’t wanna see horse porn. It shows up in /c/ALL. You have to… VISIT the horse porn group, in order to block it…)
Those alternative lemmy interfaces are made by other volunteers IIRC
Create an issue here https://github.com/rystaf/mlmym
That’s developed by a third party so you’ll have to ask them.
You can block users / communities in lemmy-ui by going to their profile.
You can block users / communities in lemmy-ui by going to their profile.
I’m not the user you’re responding to and don’t use the ui they’re talking about, but going to those profiles can be more upsetting than the original comment or post, especially if it’s set up with large images or gifs. It’d be a lot nicer if blocking could be done from other places, too.
You can also block / report them from their comments / posts.
Ah, I see that for users now. Thanks! Would still be nice to be able to block communities from afar, too, fwiw.
Here’s a link to the source, where you may be able to submit a feature request: https://github.com/rystaf/mlmym
Support development
I’ve subscribed monthly, if you can afford it, you should too!
There’s no present danger of making the development team rich enough to dismantle the capitalist state. The funding is yet to reach normal subsistence level. You can see the sums collected in each of the platforms.
Did someone say LemmyCoin?
No. 😅
If anyone is looking for an arm64 build, feel free to use my docker images.
If you want to build it on your own otherwise, feel free to use the following script.
👍👍

If you don’t mind what’s the problem with the current implementation of 2fa?
It doesn’t work with most 2FA apps. The links to apps that supposedly work (in the original announcement post) are dead (to me at least) and they were links to apps I had never heard about before (which is less than encouraging).
Weird it worked for me on Aegis without any problem!
i.e.: SHA1 and not just SHA256 digests
Thank you guys, you are amazing!
No probs!
based dessalines & nutomic provide the goods yet again
Feature request: an option to aggregate all comments of crossposted posts. It would save manually going through each crosspost
put it in the github
Thank you!
Thanks for the hard work. I’ve cancelled my Patreon and switched to Liberapay.
Is there a way - as a user - to block/ignore whole instances instead of only single communities?
cough cough lemmygrad cough cough
Edit: I don’t have a personal problem with you if you’re a communist guys, I just don’t want my feed full of communist memes
Feeling real left out here
This one. And 2-3 others that popped up in the federated timeline recently.
Hexbear nods
What is hexbear btw?
Old lifeboat from the r/chapotraphouse banning 3 years ago. It almost instantly became the largest lemmy instance at the time and so the devs next bunch of patches were optimising so our servers weren’t crash constantly. I think that state of affairs kinda maintained until the reddit blackout. Officially, it’s non-sectarian leftism, but practically speaking it’s a more shitposty less serious lemmygrad with way higher throughput. Also for a non-trans focused space online, it’s very trans.
The name itself was just the meme that was popular on r/cth at the time of shutdown ("Look at this dope ass bear
"), and there was a vote to move away from the podcast themed name.
Because of the load and a few other things (I don’t remember, I’m sure there was drama), there was a lemmy fork that only recently got reintegrated, but it means hexbear is now federated into the lemmyverse.
Phone apps are doing it, but not sure if that is part of the base functionality. (I use Connect and I can block users, communities or instances.)
If not there are clients that do this already.
I updated https://lemmy.today this morning and no problems at all.
We are a small instance but still wanted to post this. Maybe it calms the nerves for some instance owners. :)
Oopsie woopsie yo instance is down 🫤
Nah, i just forgot the s in https in the link i posted. :)
Fixed it now, thank you.
You’re welcome. May I suggest to redirecting http to https? Even default nginx conf doing that as I remember.
Edit: It didnt do a redirect by default. :) Will fix that.
I don’t want to bother you more but I tried it on my phone, with a browser I never use, it shows nginx page 🤔 FYI
You dont bother me, this is very interesting actually…
You still get this default nginx page?
Yep. I tried with a web proxy too.
Is there a chance you forgot reloading nginx?
Is it just me or is lemmy-ui broken in 0.18.4 docker image? When I upgraded my instance, the UI was not loading properly.
After upgrading it usually takes a couple minutes to work. After refreshing it should work again
