Noticed I was logged out of lemmy.ml this morning. When I logged in, everything looked the same, but… “All” loaded instantly. Switching to “Subscribed” was just as fast. Post thumbnails came up as quickly as I could scroll.
I don’t know if it’s the new software or if y’all cleared out some cruft when restarting the services, but from this end-user’s perspective, Lemmy 0.19.0-rc.8 flies. Nicely done!
I feel like I’ve kinda seen it. But also IME, I think every refresh from an update feels snappy, so I’d presume there’s something to the restart that clears some cruft (without knowing any details).
