    So when is it safe to upgrade, and from/to which version(s)?

      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

        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.

          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.)

            This doesn’t help an admin of an instance to identify that a new release has occurred, though.
