Two instances I have accounts with have switched to Lemmy 0.19. This is a breaking change for many apps, including Connect. Is there any news re supporting this in the near future or is it time to look for another app?

Edit:

This is now working for me (at least for 2 separate instances) with Connect version 1.0.153 (details in comments below). Thanks so much for rapid response!

I mean, 0.19 is not even out officially yet I believe. Instances are still on release candidate versions. And just a few days ago, they said they would install it on Lemmy.ml to test it out in a proper environment.

It's possible that app developers may not be able to drop everything in the last 48 hours to make their app work with a prerelease version. :)

To be fair this seems like a good time to implement those change in dev before it hits in prod..

Yeah but they wanted to run it in production to make sure there aren't weird bugs that only shows in production I guess.

Stuff like complex federation bugs occurring during certain conditions, things that are hard to see in a test environment.

This version is only on Lemmy.ml now so doesn't really affect most of us.. :)

lemmy.sdf.org already switched to 0.19-rc8

I'm not asking people to drop everything. I'm asking if it's on the roadmap

[-] 1984 2 points 7 months ago

Oh OK. Yes it's on every app developers roadmap. :)
