I immediately updated to v0.0.35 as soon as i saw it on GitHub, to realize i get kicked out of the app for having an account on a Lemmy instance still running 0.17. Reinstalled v0.0.34, except that now crashes on startup, probably since the default instance it uses is on 0.18.
Do I have to use 0.0.35 in anonymous mode until my instance updates to lemmy 0.18, or is there some workaround?
Even so, breaking Jerboa app access to every lemmy instance that isn’t lemmy.ml is a bit of a big oops. Especially during a period of tons of new users who may not understand what the problem is. Hopefully steps can be taken in the future so that it doesn’t happen again.
Both Lemmy and Jerboa are v0 releases and as such should probably be considered unstable (assuming semantic versioning). The average user probably won’t know or care - and why should they? So it’s not great in that sense.
To be fair that version of Jerboa is not currently on the app store. There’s definitely gonna be some hoops to jump through with the timing though.
