I learned that the next update will be early this week and version 18.0 is going to be skipped. But apart from users telling everyone that it has been updated, is there a way to check for yourself which version it is? Like an ‘about Lemmy’ or something?

At the bottom of the page, it says something like “BE 0.17.4”. BE means BackEnd, in this case that would be Lemmy.

Install Jerboa on your phone. Once it stops working, that means Lemmy has been updated.
v0.18 release had breaking changes, it won’t be true every time.
At the bottom of every lemmy page you can see the server version and UI version used by the instance. On the github releases page you can follow the server releases. For the UI there aren’t releases, but the versions are tagged so you can follow that. Hope this helps!
Thank you, i should have thought of scrolling to the bottom :-) And thank you for the link to the releases page, very helpful!
To see what version your instance is on, scroll to the very bottom of the page on web. To see what the latest released version is (that your instance may not have updated to yet), visit https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/releases.
Thanks!
