Comment on When will LW be updated to something newer than 0.19.3?
woelkchen@lemmy.world 4 days agothere were significant issues with 0.19.4
I don’t know. There’s severe lack of communication regarding such things.
there are still some issues that are important for us
Such as? There’s no communication here of what’s going on.
0.19.6 was released 10 days ago and already had a followup release 0.19.7 to fix some new issues that were introduced in 0.19.6.
No software is ever free of bugs, especially not one starting with a zero version number.
if there are any laws stating that this is required to be possible as self-service i’d love to see references for that, because for all i know this is not the case.
Privacy laws here in Germany and probably the rest of the EU say that ther must be no avoidable delay in the deletion request of user data. 0.19.5 and newer have that feature, therefore by choosing not to update there has to be an avoidable delay.
That said, there is no communication of news and roadmaps. Maybe on proprietary Discord but not here.

some of the issues introduced in 0.19.4 or 0.19.5 include
nobody is talking about it being free of bugs, but we try to go for versions that at least don’t have any major bugs.
is there a definition for “no avoidable delay” as interpreted by courts? your definition and mine clearly don’t overlap here.
there is no additional information about roadmaps on discord.
lemmy.world/post/20234434 is one of the places this was discussed previously.
we currently don’t have any announcements about this. afaik we’ve only been doing these for when we actually plan to do something with an actual estimated timeline, but i agree that it would be good to have this information more accessible by having a post in our announcement community rather than just comments on posts in other communities.

Not to mention being able to delete ones posts in app by oneself is not the user data deletion in the common GDPR speak. There it means all data in an organization which can be linked to me, and I have a right to request companies to delete this data, and they have to do so in a timely matter. That is not a requirement for all companies to allow users of them to do it themselves, which depending on the companies data structure would be ridiculous (e.g. imagine every company suddenly having to setup an user account system just so users can delete their data by themselves :D)
