i let things get out of hand, and now i’m still running 7.1.1. is there an easier path to get to 8.2 than doing an incremental update to every single version in between?
You can upgrade to 8.2, but update PeerTube dependencies before (like “npmp”).
and of course, check your production.yaml settings after the upgrade and the release notes at Release v8.0.0 · Chocobozzz/PeerTube · GitHub
