I noticed there were no new threads so I assumed some federation issues again. When I went to check on their instance @[email protected] just throws a 404 and the main domain page a standard web server install message. Anyone who has any info? @[email protected] & @[email protected] ?
Upgrade ongoing. They announced it yesterday
Where did they announce it? https://fedia.io/m/[email protected]/threads/newest Does not show any threads regarding that.

Thanks. I kinda hate how every instance has their own hidden away news community.
Usually the news only concern the instance’s users. If you want to find announcements, the community is often named either meta or main.
But maybe a common place for instance status announcements isn’t such a bad idea.
Like [email protected]?
Might cause some spam after every new version, not sure how that community would accept it.
There are more than 20 instances than have more than 300 monthly active users (https://fedidb.org/software/lemmy/), if all of them announce their updates there, that could be quite a lot.
I would suggest people who are really invested in a community to follow that community’s instance meta/main community
Where do you expect them to announce this kind of news, in all of their communities?
I don’t know but it clearly lacks the reach. Maybe at least have an easy to see link to the news communities within the sidebars, but that’s more something for the actual software to do I think.
