It is a major version update. It contains some breaking changes. Please read the migration guide carefully if you want to upgrade from v1 to v2.

    Setting aside the funny (if you’re not affected) coincidence of AWS being down I have to say this is an exemplary way on how upgrades should be announced, executed and documented. There is a migration guide, but even if you don’t read it - in most cases the software will take care of it itself. Well done!

      Only downside I see is how long it took for version 2.0 to get released. The previous stable release (1.23.16) was released almost one year ago.

    I’ve been using this new version a few weeks now (since beta 3). The most significant advantage is the performance improvement. With 100+ monitors, the “old” version was very sluggish and took a long time to start.

    Edit: I migrated my existing install to mariadb following this thread on github.
