Version is stale and old

That is not a bug, bug a feature request. The 1.x is still maintained btw and the 2.x branch will never make it into this add-on. If that is needed, the add-on would be deprecated and removed (and not upgraded).

Why so if I might ask? Sounds backward to me: if I have an addon I expect it to be updated, not to be deprecated and I've to manually take care of updating it. I can't really find the reasoning behind it 🤔

Authentication is no longer compatible. They commercialized the authentication part and the worse part is: they lie about it. Which is fine, but I won't support that.

I'll admit I don't really follow the "soap operas" behind the different projects,
tho I've been running the 2.x for months and I haven't noticed any difference in the authentication.
My "update path" since 1.x (and in general with dockerized SW) is simply: pull the latest image and launch a new container from it, and it always worked like a charm with portainer too.
I guess it might make a difference in an "enterprise setup", but for personal use, I fail to see all the concern about this update.

ps: if they're a business they're bound to lie. Every business lies, it's and essential part of capitalism and a direct consequence of measuring everything with the "god KPI" of cash 🤷‍♂️ So no news there
