Voyager is dropping support for Lemmy 0.18 on March 18 - Lemmy.World
lemmy.worldHi! Just a quick announcement that I plan to drop support for Lemmy 0.18 in the
Voyager app on March 18 2024. Due to authentication changes in lemmy 0.18->0.19,
this means that you will be unable to login to instances running lemmy 0.18.
Most instances have already upgraded to 0.19. I encourage Instances running 0.18
to upgrade as soon as possible. Those instances include: - lemmy.world (upgrade
planned March 3rd) - sh.itjust.works (upgrade planned Feb 29th) -
lemmy.blahaj.zone (committed to upgrading by March 18th) - beehaw.org
[http://beehaw.org] (⚠️ unknown upgrade timeline) If you are a user on
lemmy.blahaj.zone or beehaw.org [http://beehaw.org], please let your instance
administrator know. In addition, if you are on a very small instance, please
check that it is running lemmy 0.19. You can do so by going to the community
list -> header ellipse icon -> instance sidebar -> version listed at end of
instance statistics. This deadline will only be extended if lemmy.world is
unable to upgrade by March 18. If you are self-hosting Voyager, you can continue
connecting to a v0.18 instance past this date by staying on Voyager 1.x (I will
be dropping lemmy 0.18 support as a major version bump).

So what you’re saying is that everyone using Voyager will effectively be temporarily defederated from .World? 🤔
Read the post. lemmy.world is planning to upgrade weeks before Voyager drops 0.18 support. Even still, Voyager states they will extend the deadline if lemmy.world doesn’t upgrade by March 18th.

They posted earlier today that the upgrade will be done this Saturday.
Ah ok, good! Apologies for being too hasty at the time heh
No you just won’t be able to login. You can still federate with lemmy.world from other instances.
Good thing I have a couple alts for just such an occasion then heh 😁
That is what I gather from this post.
