Breaking Changes in Lemmy 1.0
Excited to see the idempotency feature. That will help a lot with double posts from using https://github.com/RikudouSage/LemmySchedule
Idk if it will be useful to more active people like you because you will be able to schedule only up to 10 posts at once: https://github.com/N4Y-docker/lemmy-nightly/commit/9eee61dd06220176fbb97ccbba4a594ea21bb5c6
Oof, lots of work to do for everyone.
If anyone can figure out all the non-mentioned API changes and write them here it would be useful for people like me to avoid having to reverse engineer things
I can say I was there when Lemmy 1.0 released!
A lot of these should not be called breaking changes. A new API is not a breaking change if the old API remains.
Yeah but those changes break clients as soon as they turn down the old API.
Indeed, dropping the old API would be the breaking change.
Rich Hickey did a fantastic talk on versioning, breaking changes, and dependencies.

Does this mean Lemmy 0.20 is now 1.0? What prompted the change?
And here I was thinking it would go all the way to 0.99 before getting to 1.0...
Lots of things, but mainly that lemmy is pretty stable, and its been a year since the last breaking changes release.
I was also kind of opposed to a v1.0
, and wanted lemmy to be considered alpha/beta level software, because I know when we release a v.1.0
, people are going to expect the same enterprise-level and bug-free software from a ~4 person dev team as they do from a multi-million dollar company. Also it gives us less freedom to make breaking changes, which can be restrictive for back-end devs.
But now we can just adopt proper semver, and the next breaking changes releases can upgrade the MAJOR version.
On the other hand it gives an indication to client developers that such big breaking changes wont be a regular occurence. So they have a reason to upgrade and then keep using 1.0 long-term. I believe that practically all the needed breaking changes are already implemented, and remaining issues are mostly new feature requests which can be added as new api endpoints or parameters.
Maturity I think. New Lemmy is good enough to make the change.
Holy shit, it's going gold!
This is epic. I really hope Laurence can find some time to make Sync for Lemmy support it.
Will the new lemmy ui be ready for 1.0?
Yes we always release backend and frontend versions together.
Can't give an ETA yet. I've got a few more back-end things to finish up, then @sleeplessone1917 and I will work on lemmy-ui.
Then I also gotta work on getting jerboa updated also. So much work and so few developers.
Really looking forward to SSO support!
Oh yes!
Nice
Does this mean you renamed just the DB columns, but not the API keys?
They're all renamed, that PR just hasn't been deployed to voyager.lemmy.ml yet.
Quick question mostly for @phiresky:
Are you targeting post tags for 1.0 or for later?
Thx for the work.
wow! Huge, just when I am back to the saddle
CORS is broken on voyager.lemmy.ml. Can you please fix it?
K I think it should be fixed now.
