Github issues
htaccess issue
The way how Nextcloud check if the data directory might be accessible from remote changed and for this reason new setup_warning is shown:
English:
Your data directory and files are probably accessible from the internet. The .htaccess file is not working. It is strongly recommended that you configure your web server so that the data directory is no longer accessible, or move the data directory outside the web server document root.
German:
Dein Datenverzeichnis und Deine Dateien sind wahrscheinlich vom Internet aus erreichbar. Die .htaccess-Datei funktioniert nicht. Es wird dringend empfohlen, Deinen Webserver dahingehend zu konfigurieren, dass das Datenverzeichnis nicht mehr vom Internet aus erreichbar ist oder dass Du es aus dem Dokument-Root-Verzeichnis des Webservers bewegst.

mimetype migration issue
One or more mimetype migrations are available. Occasionally new mimetypes are added to better handle certain file types. Migrating the mimetypes take a long time on larger instances so this is not done automatically during upgrades. Use the command `occ maintenance:repair --include-expensive` to perform the migrations.
basically the message ships the answer already:
Use the command
occ maintenance:repair --include-expensiveto perform the migrations.
but seems to be a bug in 29.0.5 so many users struggle with the issue
The other two are for testing and demonstration / training (both of which run on non standard ports).
