My instance is still on 0.18.5, and sync works. I think something went wrong with his preferences. Try clearing all data and cache. You will have to set sync up again, but if you have saved your preferences either in a file or in the cloud, this shouldn't be too much of a hassle.
The new sync is prepared for 0.19 but still compatible with older versions.
Haven't tried it yet, but I believe it requires 0.19 lemmy version, have you verified your instance is running the new version?
