Any plans to upgrade DB ?

Any plans to upgrade from postgress 12 to 17 ? It's too old and I keep getting notified of update..

Good question.

For the cloud version, we're on version 16. There is no reason why you can't switch to a newer version. Did you use a docker compose file as suggested here ?

You should be able to update that to use a newer version of postgres, and I'm pretty sure everything should just work. I think it would be a good idea to update the docs to suggest this too.

Just tread carefully if you change from 12 to 16 or 17 in the docker compose, it should be fine but I'd backup all the data first in case something bad happens with such a big version shift.

@mattwoberts Thanks updated to 17-bullseye and everything went well. Would be great if docker-compose was updated since most of us just copy n paste lol. Am not that knowledgeable in Docker. My journey just began a week ago..

Here's my instance..

P.S : Maybe making some themes available would be nice too. As you can see with the help of A.I was able to modify mine.

Hey @DarkXero-dev

Nice - that theme looks great. Interestingly, we've just released (just to the hosted fider now) a big-ish UI update. You can get this on your instance if you change your docker compose file so that it picks up the "main" tag of fider from docker hub:

image: getfider/fider:main

It's the listing and the post page that's mostly different, you might need to post a few ideas to get a feel for how it looks.

If you wanted to try that it would be interesting to see how your theme looks with that?

@mattwoberts Besides site title looking weird color wise still looks good

[mattwoberts]

Is your theme all done via custom css - I do like the idea of an "official" dark theme at least, might be something I'll look at.

[DarkXero-dev]

Yes. I just fixed it, I used Cursor-AI to create it lol.. Here's the CSS Code

Lemme know if you tweak it and if you decide to use it.

Thanks, the link doesn't work though I'm afraid...

I updated it a few mins ago with fixed code. If you are talking about instance give it time as my up link speed is slow.

[mattwoberts]

Cheers, I’m afk now but will check it later!

Just in case you still cannot access css I will attach here. Also a nice Dark/light toggle on main page would prove useful ;)

Cheers

Thanks, got it, I'll take a look at this when / if we get round to the dark mode stuff :)
