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'm monitoring the 0.19 release. If you're in the 152 beta it should have some compatibility fixes (and currently rolling that out to everyone).

[-] SquiffSquiff@lemmy.world 3 points 7 months ago

Thank you for this. Yes, I am in the beta. I am on 1.0.152 and can no longer access lemmy.sdf.org (0.19RC5, TBH a LOT of problems with that instance...) or lemmynsfw.com (BE: 0.19.0-rc.8) using Connect. I realise that this is impacting many developers and their apps! Good luck!

Ok thank you that's helpful. I'll take a look at those two instances and what's going on.

Using version 1.0.153

I get For lemmynsfw.com (BE: 0.19.0-rc.8-lemmynsfw)

Error 00000 Future not completed

I can now login to lemmy.sdf.org (UI: 0.19.0-rc.11 BE: 0.19.0-rc.10)

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. :)

[-] mp3@lemmy.ca 5 points 7 months ago

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

[-] 1984 2 points 7 months ago* (last edited 7 months ago)

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.. :)

[-] mp3@lemmy.ca 1 points 7 months ago

lemmy.sdf.org already switched to 0.19-rc8

[-] SquiffSquiff@lemmy.world 2 points 7 months ago

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. :)

[-] MagnusRobotFighter@lemmy.world 1 points 7 months ago

I was logged out of my Lemmy.ml account and now I can't get back in on the app. My Lemmy.world account is fine.

[-] morethanevil@lemmy.fedifriends.social 1 points 7 months ago

Try to relogin to connect. This seems to be necessary for most apps

[-] SquiffSquiff@lemmy.world 3 points 7 months ago
