It is fine to keep using the theme component for the next couple of weeks, but if the component is installed then you won’t see the upcoming change — this is intentional:

This is because you may have changed settings within the theme component and we want to map those settings across correctly to core. After updating Discourse to the latest version you could use the rake task as mentioned in the OP, though there is no urgency to update in this moment as you are self hosting.

We will be making further improvements to the migration script over the next 1-2 weeks.

I will have a look into this, possibly the migration script can be extended to handle this automatically by appending the media urls for Klipy to the site setting if it is already enabled for another provider.

We will likely have several updates to the rake task in the next couple of weeks so I will check this too. At the moment the change is experimental and currently being tested on internal sites first.

The settings are mapped over from Giphy → Klipy automatically when the rake task is run, you won’t need an API key for this as it is set already on hosted sites.

Do you have the Discourse Gifs theme component installed?
