3 **Akkoma does not currently have a stable release, until 3.0, all builds should be considered "develop"**
5 ## Why should you migrate?
7 aside from actually responsive maintainer(s)? let's lookie here, we've got:
9 - custom emoji reactions
10 - misskey markdown (MFM) rendering and posting support
11 - elasticsearch support (because pleroma search is GARBAGE)
12 - latest develop pleroma-fe additions
14 - probably more, this is like 3.5 years of IHBA additions finally compiled
18 Let's say you're very cool and have decided to move to the cooler
19 fork of Akkoma - luckily this isn't very hard.
21 You'll need to update the backend, then possibly the frontend, depending
26 If you're running the source Akkoma install, you'll need to set the
27 upstream git URL then just rebuild - that'll be:
30 git remote set-url origin https://akkoma.dev/AkkomaGang/akkoma.git/
33 # or, if you're on an instance-specific branch, you may want
34 # to run "git merge stable" instead (or develop if you want)
37 Then compile, migrate and restart as usual.
41 This will just be setting the update URL - find your flavour from the [mapping on the install guide](../otp_en/#detecting-flavour) first.
44 export FLAVOUR=[the flavour you found above]
46 ./bin/pleroma_ctl update --zip-url https://akkoma-updates.s3-website.fr-par.scw.cloud/develop/akkoma-$FLAVOUR.zip
47 ./bin/pleroma_ctl migrate
50 Then restart. When updating in the future, you canjust use
53 ./bin/pleroma_ctl update --branch develop
58 Akkoma comes with a few frontend changes as well as backend ones,
59 your upgrade path here depends on your setup
61 ### I just run with the built-in frontend
63 You'll need to run a single command,
67 mix pleroma.frontend install pleroma-fe
69 ./bin/pleroma_ctl frontend install pleroma-fe
72 ### I've run the mix task to install a frontend
74 Hooray, just run it again to update the frontend to the latest build.
75 See above for that command.
77 ### I compile the JS from source
79 Your situation will likely be unique - you'll need the changes in the
80 [forked pleroma-fe repository](https://akkoma.dev/AkkomaGang/pleroma-fe),
81 and either merge or cherry-pick from there depending on how you've got
