    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.
    Jellyfin 10.9.7
    Ubuntu23.10 Linux 6.6
    Intel N100 
    16GB DDR4
    All media files attached via NFS
    Test servers on 10.9.2 and 10.9.6, backup servers on 10.8.13

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