Its a major release with breaking changes, and you are not a small, selfhosted app anymore.
This project is free, we get a top notch alternative to paid projects like Plex (an even better alternative tbh), and the devs don't earn anything besides donations. Besides, this particular release included a major database change and it was posted all over the place that bugs were obviously expected with first releases. You can't expect a major change to not have bugs, specially when released to the general public with countless different setups. Being a big project now doesn't make them owe us anything. THis is a community project, if there are bugs, you should report them to help troubleshooting, telling the devs they should test their releases more before releases will only drag the project down (bugs reported by general users are key to the project's success). Like the previous post said, that was uncalled for.
Take it whatever you like..
My point still stands..
The project is now too big for these situations..
1-2 more botched updates and you will remember me.
No, I will not remember you, because I have my backups as advised by the team countless times, and I willingly want to try and test a new release that is advertised everywhere is going to include a major db change (which anyone understands will initially have bugs). If you don't want to experience issues, stay on 10.10.7, nobody is forcing you to upgrade, and most of us prefer new releases to test new features even if they are not that polished.
And what's that about the project being big? If your project is an echo hello world! obviously you wont have bugs, JF on the other hand is a very complex piece of software. If you expect a free project, with devs working on their spare time, to be bug free on every release, even after major changes, then probably this is not the place for you. Support here is a lot better than what one could ask, literally for free.
Anyway, it's better to get back on topic, these last releases deserve threads that contribute to troubleshooting instead of just complaining (which, as you surely understand, doesn't solve any bug and doesn't help at all).
Take care.
