This may impact lemmy.nz as well as it’s a breaking change.

Wow that release is huge. Look at all the server and ui bug fixes. Going to have to chuck some money to the lemmy devs they’ve clearly been working hard.

This release has 46 contributors! Compared to the 17.4 release that had 3, or the 17.3 release that had 4. It’s such a massive release, and with so many new users it has attracted many new devs!

This might be a dumb question, but where do you go to do that? I’m chipping in for server costs here but haven’t given the lemmy side of it much thought.

Thanks! What is the breaking change? I know the backend and frontend can’t be combined with older versions (i.e. you have to update both at the same time), if that what you’re referring to?

They have removed web sockets. That is a massive breaking change.

See the linked post, essentially for performance.

Yes, for the front/backend connection. I’m just hoping there is no change needing us to rush to 0.18

Fixing the hot/active sorting will be super helpful
