   I feel a bit sad now 'cause I saw there are still some Mastodon servers with versions below 2.0 out there. I don't know how to help them...

     @Gargron A script to export the db and import it to a newer version of the platform?

     it would allow them to stand-up a separate server and simply move the DB over?

     It might make it easier for some to fix their migration issues.

     @millenomi The admin e-mail address was added in later versions, and even then not everyone has entered it.

     Remember that 2 years anniversary of Mastodon blog post? I put a time table of most notable features in there: https://blog.joinmastodon.org/2018/10/mastodons-2-year-anniversary/

     So servers that are on 1.2.2, that version came out in April 2017. Imagine how much stuff they're missing, to say nothing of performance and security fixes

     @thegibson I could write a bash script to upgrade to the latest version from whatever they're on, but what's the point if the admins aren't paying attention or aren't interested or whatever leads to being so far behind
