4.3 Requirements

[sponch]

Will there be any problems upgrading via Cloudron when released and packed? Sounds like big changes...

️ Requires new encryption secrets environment variables
️ The minimal supported version for PostgreSQL has been bumped to 12
️ The minimal supported version for Ruby has been bumped to 3.1
️ The minimal supported version for Node.js has been bumped to 18
️ Requires rebuilding Elasticsearch accounts index
️ We switched from yarn 1 to yarn 4, and recommend using corepack
️ The Docker image has been split in two separate images
️ Rolling updates from versions earlier than Mastodon 4.2 are not supported
️ StatsD integration has been removed, replaced by OpenTelemetry integration
️ ImageMagick is being deprecated and may be removed in a future version
️ Requires streaming API restart
️ Requires database migrations
️ The logging format of the streaming server has changed

From a quick reading, I don't see foresee any issues. Cloudron already uses PostgreSQL 14. The rest are mostly deps in Docker which is easily supportable . Since an update restarts the app anyway, that's not a problem either.

New package is in our pipeline but, first there are some build issues to overcome it seems.

@nebulon Do you have any news for us?

If it'll take longer, can you make 4.2.13 available for the time being?

@joseph Sorry, my bad. I was misinterpreting Mastodon's blog post.
