It seems most instances still use version 0.19.3 and the only one using the up-to-date version is lemmy.ml. They used to update relatively fast. What’s changed?
What are you looking at because the instance list shows lemmy.ml using a Beta version, and isn’t the only one.
Dozens are using 19.5 which appears to be the latest stable version. Consider a couple of recent stable versions caused a lot of headaches for users and admins I think waiting to see if a newer ‘stable’ version is actually stable, let alone volunteering to test experimental versions in situ is prudent.

Given how long it took to fix the federation issues back in december (0.19 update), I’d be hesitant about updating, too.

But you’re on a 0.19.5 instance. Do you experience issues? There’s some incompatibility with Mastodon, apparently, but given that 0.19.5 addresses serious privacy issues and has been out for a while without big problems, the privacy fixes are more important than keeping 100% Mastodon compatibility. Surely 0.19.6 will be out soon enough to address them.

At least I personally have not seen any issues in this current release.
