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.)
That is good to know, Thanks.
You can pin a post instance wide
This doesn't help an admin of an instance to identify that a new release has occurred, though.
Ah, misread your question. The other comment with the email from the Github should address your question.
