Julia 1.6 is the new LTS (long-term support), instead of Julia 1.0 which is no longer maintained.

Switch to Julia 1.6.4 for LTS.

I hope that Diffractor.jl first release is not too far away: https://github.com/JuliaDiff/Diffractor.jl

This is still listed as experimental:

Hopefully, this will all work Diffractor-wise...
