As the title might appear a bit alarmist, saving a click "For most users, there’s nothing to worry about. However, if you’ve manually set a custom relative path for “IMMICH_MEDIA_LOCATION” in your “.env” file, you’ll need to convert it to an absolute path. For example, “IMMICH_MEDIA_LOCATION=./my-library” must become “IMMICH_MEDIA_LOCATION=/usr/src/app/my-library“."

I wouldn't think this would cause any data loss either, it just wouldn't find your media or it would throw an error. Very alarmist indeed.

Actual release notes: https://github.com/immich-app/immich/releases/tag/v1.136.0

The new beta timeline is sooo smooth! I finally don't hate scrolling back to find a specific old photo. The scrolling performance feels completely native to me now.

I've been meaning to give this a try on my Synology.
But breaking changes in a point release? Not cool.

Tbf this is actually version v1.136 .0 and

Personally I’m waiting for the day it comes out of “under active development” state so that I can migrate from NextCloud to it.

A breaking change should have been 2.0, not a new 1.
<minor>
release.It should still be 0.
<minor>
if they've not reached the stability for keeping backwards compatibly in all 1.x releases.
-
From the release notes:
one of the last breaking changes we want to make before reaching the stable release milestone
So you'll probably want to wait until they do a stable release.
-
Yes indeed. 🙂

It's a full release, not a point/patch release, the title just doesn't show the second .0. They use semantic versioning so it's major.minor.patch.
It's also a very minor change and only affects a single configuration property and only people who used relative paths in that property.
-
Breaking changes should warrant a 2.0 version, not a 1.minor version.
Edit: I am basing my comments on https://semver.org/ guidelines
