New Jellyfin Server/Web release: 10.11.0

[KaXaSA]

The blog post doesn't mention it, but I remember that in the notes it was recommended to remove all plugins before upgrading to 10.11.x, that's no longer necessary?
What's the situation with the plugins? Thanks.

Edit:
Just an update, answering my own question: you probably don't need to remove anything, just follow the blog post instructions.

I upgraded from 10.10.7 (Windows 11), followed the blog instructions, but in my case no changes were necessary. Checking the logs, It tried to load the plugins and update them if available/necessary.
If there is a problem with the plugins, you will probably see in the logs a:

Code:

"[ERR] [10] Emby.Server.Implementations.Plugins.PluginManager"

Real Example:

Code:

[2025-10-20 00:57:51.039 -03:00] [ERR] [10] Emby.Server.Implementations.Plugins.PluginManager: 
Failed to load assembly "C:\Users\Username\AppData\Local\jellyfin\plugins\Ani-Sync_3.7.0.0\jellyfin-ani-sync.dll". 
This error occurs when a plugin references an incompatible version of one of the shared libraries. Disabling plugin

Note: Ani-Sync got updated to 3.8, and now it's working fine, I had to open the plugin page and manually install it, but it restored all my old settings.

I have a small jellyfin server on my main PC, the upgrade/migration was superfast, it was pretty much instantaneous.
Checking the logs, it seems it took about 3 minutes for it to actually finish with all the migrations and, aside from the plugin above that got disabled, I didn't see any other issues.

I still need to test stuff like Sync Play, but so far so good. Thanks devs👍

Edit 2:
Sync Play seems to work fine, and I think I didn't experience some of the bugs I reported in GitHub yet, so maybe they got fixed?
