This issue is already quite widely publicized and quite frankly “we’re handling it and removing this” is a much more harmful response than I would hope to see. Especially as the admins of that instance have not yet upgraded the frontend version to apply the urgent fix.
It’s not like this was a confidential bug fix, this is a zero day being actively exploited. Please be more cooperative and open regarding these issues in your own administration if you’re hosting an instance. 🙏
unfortunately there’s no images for 0.18.2-anything yet :(
There are, via dessalines’ repo. It’s for lemmy-ui
only, at 0.18.2-rc.1
.
I have it running already on my instance, and have for 93min now.
For amd64, Lemmy dev Dessalines pushes images to his Docker Hub repo usually right after a new version comes out.
Since they don’t release arm64 builds anymore, I build them regularly and push them to my repo, which can be found here.
Multi-platform images are kept up-to-date on this 3rd party repo: https://github.com/ubergeek77/lemmy-docker-multiarch
Which leads me to ask: why are we still using Docker images as a MAJOR part of our infrastructure when superior alternatives exist? The Docker aspect made me realize how hacked together the codebase actually is.
Just because it’s not using your personal preference of containerization doesn’t qualify it as being “hacked together”. Docker is a perfectly acceptable solution for what Lemmy is.
I will always espouse containers for critical workloads as they provide much better orchestration, especially during deployment. If your complaint is specifically against docker, I agree, we should be using k8s
