When Lemmy is updating, the server is obviously down. The app infinitely loads and it gives no context about what is happening. So I was wondering if it would be possible to get, maybe a screen or a popup, informing us why we can’t use Lemmy. Something like that. What do you think?

    You think you can confirm what is the info you’re getting when the server is down for maintenance (more specifically lemmy.world) ? So I can make a feature request for it if they don’t send something back and just drop requests

      Unfortunately I don’t think I used the app during the maintenance period so I never got a sample response from the server :(. If you saw a spinner though it suggests that lemmy.world never returned any errors and instead just let the request time out. There really isn’t anything I can do in that case.
