The 0.18 version of Lemmy was announced. This will solve many issues.

But we can’t upgrade yet because the captcha was removed, and captcha relied on Websockets, which are removed in 0.18 so despite the devs agreeing on my request to add captcha back, this will not be until 0.18.1. Without captcha we will be overrun by bots.

Hopefully this 0.18.1 will be released soon, because another issue is that the newest version of the Jerboa app won’t work with servers older than 0.18. So if you’re on Lemmy.world, please (temporarily) use another app or the web version.

    That was an issue with reddit to. If there’s not enough content/ activity it breaks top post sorting for short periods of time.

    I used to follow a lot of niche communities on reddit and that was always an issue. I’d have to put it at a year, month/ day wouldn’t work.

      Oh, I never knew that about Reddit. That said, it’s happening for communities on Lemmy that are populated/active, like this one for example. Lemmyworld shows as a blank community when I sort by Top Day.
