We successfully upgraded to Lemmy v0.19.1! (Yay~!)
Unfortunately, you might need to login again on your Lemmy apps and front-ends.
More importantly, if you had 2FA enabled previously, you need to re-enable it again as Lemmy v0.19 has an improved 2FA implementation.
A few other notable major changes in Lemmy v0.19 include:
- Improved post ranking (scaled sort)
- User-level instance blocking
- User data export/import
You can read more about all the new changes here.
Additionally, we made a few changes to the instance that may or may not be a concern for you:
- Increased max image resolution to 4096px
- Disabled external image caching
- Migrated to object storage
- Switched email provider to MXRoute from Lark Suite

Congrats on the smooth upgrade! I was wondering if there was a documented way to migrate pict-rs to object storage. I have an instance I run for testing and an available bucket, so I might give that a try if it isn’t too difficult.
The instructions are here: https://git.asonix.dog/asonix/pict-rs#user-content-filesystem-to-object-storage-migration (you might have to change the version tag though)
It was easy enough but it took quite some time (almost 2 hours for us).
