lemmy.ca updated to 0.17.4

i've updated to 0.17.4, which has some security fixes and db optimizations. official release notes should be out tomorrow.

0.18.0 will hopefully coming soon which should help more with performance issues, by getting rid of websockets.

Thanks for hosting us! I really appreciate it.
Thanks so much for your hard work on this smorks! I've been enjoying lemmy.ca so much I deleted my reddit account.
- you're welcome! glad it's held up so far. and congrats!
  
  No matter the project, it is kinda cool when it doesn't fall over. Makes up for the anguish and angst every.other.moment :-D
Thanks for the hard work! Is there a way for us to donate to lemmy.ca for server costs?

  thank you for posting those! they probably aren't that visible in the main sidebar, so will make a post with those as well.
Thanks for the hard work! Its been working great!
Nice!
For whatever reason, I can't seem to search for and find the groups hosted on lemmy.ca on other fediverse instances. I made an account on a kbin instance and while I can add groups from other lemmy instances, lemmy.ca doesn't work. I can't find an obvious reason for this.
- apparently kbin.social has federation turned off?

  I'm aware of issues federating with mastodon instances. trying to get that figured out.
  
  Yep. I saw your comments on another post and this issue was fixed for me those nginx config changes.
We are still on 0.X releases?! It runs surprisingly well.
I love how there's subsets of communities that run on their own lemmy build version. This is such a cool alternative, I can't see it not doing great!
