I upgraded from version 3.8 to 4.3, and I noticed that content already downloaded in 3.8 still gets downloaded again in 4.3 — it isn’t skipped. Also, the folder names created during download are different: in 4.3 they are images and videos, while in 3.8 they were image and video.

Does that mean that if I want to use the content already downloaded in 3.8 as the base, I can only upgrade to 3.9 at most?
