Lots of instances are waiting for 0.18.1 to be released, which will bring back captchas, which got removed in 0.18.0. The devs pushed out 0.18.0 to fix a bunch of annoying bugs and to make their api more sustainable (http vs websockets), but changing api technologies meant that captchas needed to be entirely reimplemented. They didn't want to wait for that to push the bug fixes and the new api, hence why you're seeing the discrepancy. The new jerboa app using the new api got pushed together with the new api, but isn't compatible with the 0.17.4 version
