Hot take? This should have been a major version update.

Yes project does not follow semantic versioning. But you can consider it it the 0.y.z state where it is even in the semantic versioning allowed to have breaking changes without major version increase.
I am generally of the opinion that version numbers do not matter at all until the author/distributor has GUARANTEED that they do. Until then they’re worthless, including in places where semver is supposedly enforced like NPM. If I had a penny for every NPM package that broke my project after removing the package-lock.json, I could retire.
Absolutely agree with you. Just because the Versioning looks like x.y.z does not mean it follows that convention. The most prominent example is probably the Linux Kernel Versioning.
Read the notes of the dev team and subscribe to the changelog or update channel.
There are quite a few mature projects in 0.x that would cause a LOT of pain if they actually applied semver
Depending on how one defines the “initial development” phase, those projects are actually conforming to semver spec:
Major version zero (0.y.z) is for initial development. Anything MAY change at any time. The public API SHOULD NOT be considered stable.
Thanks for posted. I didnt even notice. I just blindly did a pull. Lesson learned.
You can always set watchtower to blindly pull for you. If it’s going to be broken anyways, might as well automate the process.
Most of my containers do that but not the ones that break connection.
*pro tip
Thanks for the heads up!
I got Immich running last week and it’s impressive.
The only thing I yearn for is a way to get the pictures to easily display on the cloaed-source frame we have.
Anyone know of a way to automatically email pictures added to an Immich album?
maybe you could look into ImmichFrame?
Thanks for the suggestion. I ended up using a Raspberry Pi and an old computer monitor to run MagigMirror and MMM-ImmichSlideShow.
I tried ImmichFrame, too, and will revisit it in the future. For now MMM-ImmichSlideShow is working well.
super! glad its working.
Good share. I saw the nudge in the mobile app, but I didn’t realize there was breaking changes and upgraded in the middle of the night before bed (what the hell was I thinking???). Spent a good extra hour trying to figure out why.
Key take away, the
pgvecto.rs
version needs to be upgraded. If you are using docker, update the docker-compose.yml. If you’re not, upgrade yourpgvector.rs
version first. 🙏
