Hi! I’m hoping for some guidance upgrading my instance. I’m still running on v0.17.3 because I ran into some issues upgrading to 0.18 and didn’t have time to really figure it out. Now that the current release is v0.19, I have people on my instance asking to upgrade and I don’t blame them. Can I simply point Docker compose at the latest release, or do I have to do incremental upgrades? What do I need to look out for with v0.18? Documentation seems to be pretty slim for whatever breaking changes happened during that release cycle and how to deal with them. Any help is appreciated!

I would move to 0.18 and then on to 0.19, how you get there will depend on how you setup in the first place. a look at your compose file would help

I created a gist with my compose file: gist.github.com/…/26a875576d3bbcf11923d7715ac15e6…. It should be stripped of all private info. I tried changing the version from 0.17.3 to 0.18.0 and the server returns a gateway error after restarting.

Update lines 33 and 48 with 0.18.5, then do a
docker compose pulland thendocker compose up -dOnce lemmy is up and happy, then repeat for 0.19.1
