Personally I appreciate any upgrades, design is cool and everything...

But that code sending your IP address to umbrel directly, still concerns me, and also think that it doesn't matter how many face washes they give to their UI, most of the apps are still super outdated or lack crucial functionality. (With the exception of Immich, BTC core, Lightning, and a few others) also it seems strange that til now there is not a small section that says when was the last update of some apps.

Personally had to set up a CasaOS as another server in an old RPi 4 to get more updated apps, and have them working as intended.
