Bug Fixes, Performance and Maintenance

• Shared posts time in /local use sharing time for sorting, not publishing time

Bug Fixes, Performance and Maintenance

• More resolver tests and efficiency improvements
• Cleanup of the federation listener, using new Go 1.22 features
• Database schema cleanup: follows.followed is now TEXT instead of JSON (purely cosmetic issue) and personscerthash now only includes local users
• Resolver refuses to fetch the actor if the WebFinger response points to a different host which is not a subdomain of the WebFinger host
• Resolver forbids actor ID change if the same WebFinger host now points to a different actor

Added

• "Set account alias" link in settings page: allows users to set the alsoKnownAs property, to allow account migration from Mastodon to tootik
• "Move account" link in settings page: allows users to set the movedTo property and send a Move activity to followers, to allow account migration from tootik to Mastodon
• Help page updated accordingly

Bug Fixes, Performance and Maintenance

• If A follows B and B is moved to A, A needs to unfollow B without following A (i.e. if followed account is the move target, the follower shouldn't try to follow itself)
• Inbox of A shows the correct author for replies to posts by A
• The resolver logic is now covered by tests: several bugs (for example: no size limit for WebFinger responses) are fixed and unreachable code is removed
• Some cleanup of JSON conversion work in 0.7.0
• Bumped from Go 1.21 to 1.22

Added

• "Post to mentioned users" link in menu: use this to post to specific users, by mentioning them; this is more in line with the current Mastodon UI

Removed

• "Message x" link in outbox for x

Bug Fixes, Performance and Maintenance

• Frequent "database is locked" errors when processing incoming posts because the transaction that inserts post x waits for mentions of post y to be resolved (so it waits on multiple outgoing HTTP requests)
• Incoming posts are not inserted if the timeout for processing is reached during the loop that resolves mentions
• Missing context when logging activity processing failure

Added

• Support for "share" and "unshare" actions for posts by others, using Announce activities
• Outbox now displays Announce activities
  • More intuitive display of groups: replies are hidden and threads are sorted by last activity
  • Posts shared by non-group actors now appear alongside their posts and replies
• Link to avatar and header images in first page of user's outbox (requested by istvan in BBS); this reduced the database size of hd.206267.xyz (which federates with Lemmy and caches every poster in large groups) by ~50%
• Deletion of idle federated actors (no posts, no shares, no incoming requests, ...) without followers after a configurable default of 7d
• Configuration key for follow accept timeout

Removed

• The /api/v1/instance stub

Bug Fixes, Performance and Maintenance

• Announce activities are first-class citizens now and posts shared by groups are handled the same way as posts shared by other kinds of actors
  • Various feeds, including /users/firehose, are faster
• All to/from JSON conversions of JSON columns are now encapsulated in Scanner and Valuer implementations for ap structs, simplifying queries and error handling
• main() is much simpler now - listeners, queues and periodic jobs now follow the same interface
• & in -dumpcfg output is no longer escaped
