As an update, we are going to move the full beta population back to the 0.43 production release based on the problems seen by a subset in moving to the new 0.44 release until we can prepare a fix for the issue that we discovered following the deployment. I’ll get @cbaumler to update the header on this page to clarify.
We’re still digging through things a bit but the problem seems to be isolated to a subset of hubs which have smart lighting automations with specific characteristics (we think particularly size) that is causing a problem with one of the underlying serialization/deserialization libraries that was updated during the release cycle. No action should be required to deal with this, we’re going to address the problem in that dependency as required – we may reach out to a few specific users to get additional information to confirm the root cause analysis and get a consistent reproduction.
Thank you all for your patience and feedback on the problem. We expect the update to roll back to 0.43 to be out within the next ~1-2 hours.
