Voyager is dropping support for Lemmy 0.18 on March 18
Hi! Just a quick announcement that I plan to drop support for Lemmy 0.18 in the Voyager app on March 18 2024.
Due to authentication changes in lemmy 0.18->0.19, this means that you will be unable to login to instances running lemmy 0.18.
Most instances have already upgraded to 0.19. I encourage Instances running 0.18 to upgrade as soon as possible. Those instances include:
- lemmy.world (✅
upgrade plannedupgraded March 3rd) - sh.itjust.works (✅
upgrade plannedupgraded Feb 29th) - lemmy.blahaj.zone (✅
upgrade plannedupgraded March 9th) - beehaw.org (⚠️ unknown upgrade timeline)
If you are a user on beehaw.org, please let your instance administrator know.
In addition, if you are on a very small instance, please check that it is running lemmy 0.19. You can do so by going to the community list -> header ellipse icon -> instance sidebar -> version listed at end of instance statistics.
This deadline will only be extended if lemmy.world is unable to upgrade by March 18.
If you are self-hosting Voyager, you can continue connecting to a v0.18 instance past this date by staying on Voyager 1.x (I will be dropping lemmy 0.18 support as a major version bump).
Voyager is dropping support for Lemmy...
Almost gave me a heart attack for a brief moment with that title. I use this app so damn much.
Drop support of Lemmy 18 on the 18th. Nice 👍
Thanks for all your hard work!
Thanks brother
Great work as always
Any reason why? Is it just to make maintenance easier or is there another reason?
Mostly because I don't want to spend my free time supporting outdated lemmy versions.
Makes sense, thank you for your work!
Thanks for the work and the heads up!
Working great with 0.19.3!
good to hear 😊
It was the kick in the pants I needed to upgrade the instance
By going to the WHAT??!
the place with the thing
Just scroll down from your respective instance it will be at tge bottom
Thanks for all the hard work
Just a heads up @aeharding@lemmy.world, today the beehaw.org admins have confirmed they are not planning to upgrade past 0.18.4 and are advising users to find another app.
Thanks! Yeah, I put a popup in app in the latest release so beehaw users have a few days at least to transition to something else.
You really should wait for Lemmy.World to migrate, stabilize, and then make the migration announcement.
Otherwise you’re going to strand a massive user base.
This deadline will only be extended if lemmy.world is unable to upgrade by March 18.
Goooood.
