@useless-bit commented on GitHub (Aug 25, 2025):

Maybe a solution can be implemented that would not require an external server for the update. So that checks and downloads are handled from the self-hosted instance.
That could also prevent potential mismatches if the server is not updated to the latest version or if the client is in an isolated network without internet access.

Potentially, if https://github.com/Drop-OSS/drop/issues/196 is implemented, it could be used as a base.
Even a notification that an update is available would be valuable.
