I immediately updated to v0.0.35 as soon as i saw it on GitHub, to realize i get kicked out of the app for having an account on a Lemmy instance still running 0.17. Reinstalled v0.0.34, except that now crashes on startup, probably since the default instance it uses is on 0.18.
Do I have to use 0.0.35 in anonymous mode until my instance updates to lemmy 0.18, or is there some workaround?
Yup, Google Play releases are pretty slow. It’s alpha software, so issues are to be expected.
There is talk about supporting both the previous and current lemmy versions each release, but that takes a lot of work and nobody has done it yet. There is interest, so maybe the lemmy 0.18 -> 0.19 upgrade will be smoother.
It’s going to be a bit rough over the next week or so.
