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.
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Mostly because I don’t want to spend my free time supporting outdated lemmy versions.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!
