Web app compatibility - homelabResearcher - 2024-07-12

As Jellyfin 10.9.x rolls out, the server updates are becoming more frequent. I'm using a slightly modified jellyfin-web rather than the bundled version. Should we expect compatibility between older versions of jellyfin-web as long as they are within the same major version, e.g. both 10.9.x?

I encountered compatibility issues when I updated my server to 10.9, the older 10.8.13 client immediately failed to load. Even after updating the jellyfin-web to 10.9, some clients still needed to wait for older web resources to expire (For remote access, I use Cloudflare cache with a longer TTL).

Currently, I am using server 10.9.7 and web 10.9.2 without any major compatibility issues. However, I would like to know if there are any potential issues or concerns I should be aware of.

Always assume custom changes will break between updates, even the patch releases.
