today’s (later than planned) upgrade to lemmy 0.19.2 provisionally appears to have gone alright. if you see excessive amounts of jank (and your page footer can’t decide what version of lemmy it’s running on, IE it shows separate FE and BE versions), clear your browser cache and cookies since lemmy doesn’t seem to do that cleanly on its own
next up I’m planning to deploy the Proton frontend as an alternative to the default and I’m also going to start pushing code to codeberg (most likely) so stay tuned for that
Btw, you can for sure make cache busting work even with your non-supported setup. I am not using a standard setup for lemm.ee either.
Feel free to ping me on Matrix if you decide you want to fix this, and I can help you out. Not sure you want help at this point, though, if you were just venting, then carry on.
