Comment on I tried to selfhost Nextcloud at work
ShortN0te@lemmy.ml 4 days agoThey’re releasing a new version every two month or so and dropping them rapidly from support, pinning it with a tag means that in 12 months the install would be exploitable.
The lifecycle can be found with a single online search. Here github.com/…/Maintenance-and-Release-Schedule
Releases are maintained for roughly a year.
Set yourself a notification if you forget it otherwise.

Exactly, they have a release schedule, why their own plugin, that they’re heavily promoting as a feature, isn’t following that? If for some reason the forms app isn’t ready for that date, why not postponing the launch instead of having it broken for who know how many months?
It’s not a plugin made by someone else in their free time. They knew that by updating to NC 30 that feature that was marketed just 6 months ago would be disabled, so at least have the decency to write it in the release notes. I subscribe to the newsletter and the RSS for what, just enjoy the marketing buzzwords?
It’s like if Microsoft releases an operating system with a buggy and broken taskbar because of a rushed self imposed deadline and fixes it one year later.
