minus-squareschizo@forum.uncomfortable.businesslinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up23·10 个月前I’ve become a fan of staying one version behind for a month or two, unless there’s a security issue that is involved in which case I’ll patch. I like it when someone who isn’t me finds out the catastrophic breaking issues and has to do the cleanup, and I’ll wait for the fixed version. :P
minus-squarefmstrat@lemmy.nowsci.comlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2·10 个月前Me too. This is also fueled by the fact that there are no admin tools for announcing releases, and you can’t set notifications for any new message in a community, and the releases are announced in a community.
minus-squareschizo@forum.uncomfortable.businesslinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up4·10 个月前Head to the lemmy github and subscribe to the releases email and you’ll get one when a new version is out. (And, unlike SOME projects I’m subbed to, they don’t do anything that generates a ton of spam, so it really is just one-email-per-release.)

minus-squarefmstrat@lemmy.nowsci.comlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·10 个月前This doesn’t help an admin of an instance to identify that a new release has occurred, though.

minus-squareBlaze (he/him)@feddit.orgOPlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up14arrow-down1·edit-210 个月前People who were there for 0.19.4 remember 😅 But this one seems quite stable, it is a fix for 0.19.7, so hopefully no bug
minus-squareValmond@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up4·10 个月前Ya, my whole server was in a bad mood after 19.4. I’m on 19.5 which one should I go with (I mean if 19.6 had problems there is maybe a 19.6.1 right?)?
minus-squareBlaze (he/him)@feddit.orgOPlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2·10 个月前No, it’s directly 0.19.6, then .7 and .8
minus-squareValmond@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2·10 个月前So you’d recommend the 19.7 as a bugfree stable version?
minus-squareBlaze (he/him)@feddit.orgOPlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·10 个月前0.19.8 is the bugfix for 0.19.7. You can wait a few days to see if 0.19.8 has bugs
minus-squareValmond@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·10 个月前Yes that’s the theory 😊 but I heard icons or something doesn’t work well on 19.7… Do they do backports?

That is good to know, Thanks.

There used to be an issue on thumbnails for some instances
But on the other hand, some instances on 0.19.7 were doing fine:
Not sure about backports
