*Released: 2023/01/16*
|
|
|
|
This release focuses on the final big "feature delta" we had versus other
|
|
complete servers, and includes a lot of the missing community features that
|
|
we needed for an initial open launch of takahe.social.
|
|
|
|
If you're curious on the reasons *not* to use Takahē yet, see what's left
|
|
to implement on our :doc:`/features` page, and our federation and client
|
|
compatibility list on our :doc:`/interoperability` page.
|
|
|
|
Major features:
|
|
|
|
* Blocking and Muting
|
|
|
|
* Timed mutes are supported but only via client apps for now
|
|
|
|
* Further Mastodon Client API support
|
|
|
|
* Announcements, profile editing, viewing followers, and some more bugfixes
|
|
|
|
* Emoji admin page
|
|
* Server announcements system
|
|
* Notifications to admins when new identities are created
|
|
* Emails to moderators when a new report comes in
|
|
* Shared inbox delivery to remote servers
|
|
|
|
Other fixes and improvements include:
|
|
|
|
* Lightbox for viewing images (rather than a full redirect!)
|
|
* Content Warnings of the same type will now all expand together
|
|
* Client compatibility improvements (especially for Elk, Ivory and Tusky)
|
|
* Preliminary light theme for the interface
|
|
* Remote server software tracking and down detection
|
|
* HTML formatted emails along with plain text versions
|
|
* Better display of videos on remote posts (no local upload yet)
|
|
* Unfollowing users clears them from your timeline (as does blocking)
|
|
* RSS feeds now support multiple images on a single post
|
|
* Timeline rendering performance improvements
|
|
* Federation compatibility improvements
|
|
* Automatic trimming of old FanOut, InboxMessage, and other data
|

Upgrade Notes
|
|
-------------
|
|
|
|
Migrations
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
|
|
There are new database migrations; they are backwards-compatible, so please
|
|
apply them before restarting your webservers and stator processes.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Snowflake IDs and Ordering
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
|
|
As of this release, we have moved Post, Identity, Follow, and several other
|
|
objects to have "snowflake IDs" - ones that include the timestamp as part of
|
|
the ID, such as ``137587476347213336``. These IDs also have implicit ordering
|
|
as a result.
|
|
|
|
We've also changed all timelines to be ordered by when the post was
|
|
*received* rather than *initially created*; if another server takes a while to
|
|
send Takahē the post, it will now appear at the top of the timeline when it
|
|
arrives. The date on a post will be its *original publish* date, so if other
|
|
servers are a bit slow you may see the timestamps not be entirely in order.
|
|
This is fine, and also the way Mastodon behaves.
|
|
|
|
You should not notice any major side-effects apart from longer IDs in URLs.
|
|
After the inital upgrade, you may notice a couple of old posts at the top of
|
|
the Home timeline; this is due to a switch in handling, and is a one-time bug
|
|
that will go away as more posts come in and build the timeline further.
