*Released: 2022/12/04*

|

|
This release brings Takahē to an almost full implementation of the underlying
|
2022-12-04 19:43:34 +01:00
|
|
|
ActivityPub protocol, with only custom emoji and manual follower approval as
|
|
|
|
high-level features we are yet to implement.

|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Our goal now is to reach an initial "island of stability", where we ensure
|
|
|
|
good test coverage and compatibility testing with a suite of other ActivityPub
|
|
|
|
servers before we continue down adding main features (though there's still
|
|
|
|
plenty of smaller features we'll add).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This release includes:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Image uploading for posts, with image descriptions
|
|
|
|
* Hashtag parsing, search and timeline pages
|
|
|
|
* RSS feeds for users' public posts
|
|
|
|
* Collapsing of related notifications into one
|
|
|
|
* Automatic refetching and cleaning for Identities (profiles) and internal message buffers
|
|
|
|
* Mastodon now understands Takahē profile and post URLs in its search box
|
|
|
|
* Fixes to search, activitypub parsing, upload naming, email and media settings
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
We're also aiming at two other big things for our next release apart from "stability":
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Moderation queues and flagging
|
|
|
|
* Initial Client App API (Mastodon-compatible)
|

|
The goal will be for our next release to be the first one we can *recommend that*
|
|
|
|
*a small community can be run on*. This is a relatively high bar for us, and while we
|
2022-12-04 18:50:32 +01:00
|
|
|
will still have a lot of work to do afterwards (especially around accessibility and
|
|
|
|
internationalisation), it's a milestone we're excited to reach.

Migrations

|
~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
There are new database migrations - they are backwards-compatible,
|
|
|
|
so apply the migrations *before* you update your webserver and stator deployments.
