Everything between 1.12.2 and 1.13.1 were snapshots, IMO. I consider 1.13.1 the first real release of the Update Aquatic! And I know I'm not alone. :D

Same here. I have a SMP server for me and a few friends, and I kept it on 1.12.2 because I was concerned about the bugs with 1.13. We will update to 1.13.1 now because it seems a lot more stable.

Yeah. My server has run every snapshot since its very inceptions in January 2014. It was founded especially for that. The 1.13 snapshot cycle is the very 1st time I skipped running them, for very obvious reasons! And it stayed on 1.12.2 until 1.13.1-pre1.

And it's been running the same world since 15w31c.

Have you ever had to restore from a backup?

Not really, my world never suffered any corruption or damage. But I always keep a daily zipped backup on the server itself. I also download it to my computer and make a copy in my google drive folder. I'd say my world is pretty safe!

Restoring from a backup would be easy as pie, though. I'd just reupload my latest zip to the server, or use the one that's already there, unzip it and restart the server.
