it’s currently on Release Candidate 5, so actual release will probably be this weekend

github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/tags

iamroot ,

Do you happen to know why v0.18.2 is available in tags, yet not in releases? I see that majority of lemmy instances are running BE 0.18.2.

The releases page doesn’t matter, the images are uploaded to docker

Looks like 0.18.3 was tagged just now, so we might see some instances update to it today

I just upgraded without issue. Had to restart docker once it was installed but otherwise it went smoothly.

Nice, I gotta try to upgrade mine today (not the one my account is on lol, it’s an instance just for communities lemmy.mods4ever.com/communities )

What do you mean by nefarious exactly? I don’t get the impression that it’s evil…

Getting recommended months and years old posts

I’ve been living in “Top # hours” for this reason. Active and Hot are weirdly…not.

That’s not what nefarious means.

adjective: nefarious (typically of an action or activity) wicked or criminal. “the nefarious activities of the organized-crime syndicates”

I never understand people who obsess with words instead of language itself, not trying to disrespect you, but it’s like you are trying to prove a point or go in too deep, when the answer is very simple. It’s all about the context. You can safely say it’s criminal to show a month-old post in “Hot”.

Encode1307 ,

I guess I’d want to know if I was using a word incorrectly. I understand what they’re trying to say, but nefarious doesn’t make sense in this context. Maybe my pedantic correction prevents them from looking dumb in the future.

fhqwgads ,

Except that nefarious is not a direct synonym for criminal. Nefarious has a subtext of specific underhanded malicious intent, whereas criminal doesn’t have the same intentional connotations.

If one were to read about a “Criminal website”, it might have instructions on how to make a bomb or something like that, whereas a “nefarious website” is likely to be read as looking normal but stealing your information.

By calling the sorting nefarious, OP has (likely) unintentionally implied that there is an underlying sinister reason for the issues, which is not likely to be the case.

HamSwagwich ,

Because words have meanings? If words just mean anything you want them to mean then they mean nothing.

StudioLE ,

Yeah, right

muddybulldog ,

I’m thinking you could care less.

Change sorting. “NewComments” and “Top x” are better than Hot and Active atm

Blaze ,

Probably once they merge the remaining merge requests: github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/pulls
