This is a preview release, intended for those interested in testing 10.11.0 before it’s final public release.

If you intend to test this, BE SURE you stop your Jellyfin server and take a full backup before upgrading!

      I think the feel from the Devs is that there isn’t enough new functionality to justify the major version bump, this primarily being a reimplementation of existing features.

      BUT, I agree with you, it should definitely be V11 under the semantic versioning scheme.
      Whilst there is a migration path here, the database changes under the hood alone are likely to break backwards compatibility with all plugins (with in-house plugins being upgraded in sync).
      Such breakage is kind of the defining characteristic of a MAJOR version.

        Which they do here. Once you upgrade to 10.11, your database is not 10.10 compatible anymore. So you can’t downgrade without restoring a backup.
