I’m thinking this might be a good thing, since Lemmy v0.19.2 has introduced a new round of bugs and brought back some old ones. Is this why Beehaw is still running the older version? I’m just curious.

Beehaw is still on 0.18.5 for a few reasons:
It’s working as expected for functionality, same cannot be said for any 0.19.x release
Database changes for 0.19.x release, when upgrading from 0.18.5 will cause extensive down time _(based on reports of other instances). Need to plan that out and ideally TEST IT before doing so on prod. Admin team haven’t had time to do that yet; life happens.
Pict-rs updates and changes aren’t compatible with the current version used for pictrs or Lemmy. IE, once we attempt to go up to a 0.19 release it either works, or we’re in a broken state with only recourse to roll back the entire system to a prior backup. Yes, we have those, yes we can do that but really don’t want to.
Yes, Beehaw admins are still planning a move to other software. See above about the admin team time constraints.
Looking forward to this.
Discuit recently went open source, but it’s still missing some features that other platforms have.
Definitely a good accomplishment, but fits more with the Mastodon style than the Beehaw/forum style.
Oh I thought it was still only under consideration, not a plan. That’s unfortunate.
I’d like confirmation on this as well, if there’s confirmation to be had.
