   ============
   List of issues below + moan before - not so serious but
   good if you like to be on top of
   letting people know more than less
   =============

   My own critique (of anything) is that people are CRAP at managing if they are not saying (or listing) the problems in new version or half-step version for users (expert or not) - so they can expect things when changes have been made.
   It was said this was a stepping-stone upgrade so this not quite deserving "crap" attribute but I guess I would do more or have someone else at least do it for me as a note to users (before others post about it say find a problem).

   So a 'management of expectations' if we you are the manager / mod knowing about problems (to be fair I think it they don't always know and @freemo alone for ages) but still can't make promises you can't / didn't meet again).

   So I'm mentioning this expectations thing so users in their own world know *before* using it that

   (i.e.) ➡️ "we know you can't do this + this + this yet... but most works"...

   so crap = not mentioning / being silent - which I'm not saying is the case here but going for others to note that if managing any users anywhere then say before complaints or someone holding you to tje time quoted... months out or repeated attempts and I'm sure prioritizing other things more than a few days...

   Literally also a mod says it's not for them to talk to or tell @freemo and they seem help out once in a blue moon (notice almost no postings from them, or literally none) - So all this = no excuse for me as manager (not plural probably)) - waiting again for repair man to come or tomorrow again loses it's value / cost me to hear it again even if I didn't pay for it. Nobody like when repair guy doesn't show on the regular.

   So the above is a general observation rather than attack or something.

   ===============
   So on to the issues:
   ===============

   1/ I get the same "re-dited" notifications - (like 5+ times so far for the same post) always the same posts

   2/ Cannot see my own profile natively - clicking my username link = "not found" page as said by @bibliolater in this post (screenshot in post https://qoto.org/@bibliolater/113262204991652012)

   3/ error 500 comes up but retrying works so not bad or big (unless it's going wrong in some other way when it does seem to post)

   4/ "Local" tab disappeared / no shortcut to see Local Timeline at top

   5/ Searching own posts still doesn't work despite "shortly after" being said after this change - this is the longest running saga of all things and probably is just a switch on thing...

   4/ yawn

   so I'm sure all this will be attempted to be fixed...
   "hopefully everything working and a few new features."
   one day / after, another phase ... ...towards Version 4.x.x and that has been said as the plan...

     @freeschool @bibliolater

     #1 is due to backlog from when we were down, now that we are caught up they should go away.

     #2 known issue we are fixing. It is due to a broken link, if you click your name ont he left side above the edit field it will be wrong, but if you click your name anywhere else it will be correct. Simple fix we will roll out soon.

     #3 That was due to us having our resources set for the old version,b ut resource usage changed dramatically. As of earlier today we reallocated our workers (smaller machines but many more of them) and this issue appears to have went away, the system is more responsive as a result.

     UPDATE: nvm i just saw a 500, its likely our load balancer, let me at that now.

     #4 appears to be just a missing link issue o some kind. If you used to have the local timeline up it will still be up. But if it isnt up the physical link appears to just be missing. Easy fix ill have them on that right away.

     #5 that is intentional, as I've stated before the upgrade needs to finish and then we will renable it (or else the updates would take weeks instead of a day). Right now things are mostly working, once everything is fixed (these issues seem to be all thats left) and things are stable for about a week then we will renable it.

     as for your comments about 4.x not sure what your talking about, there is no 4.x of QOTO, Why would you think our next version would be a major number bump rather than a minor number bump? It sounds like you are confusing us with Mastodon, their versions and our versions arent related its different software.

     @freeschool

     As you wish, no problem... we actually have edit-in-place as a new feature but its missing as a link from the UI.. so thats also something were fixing as we speak.
