You can now add a word or phrase filter to remove unwanted toots from your timeline. Go to Settings -> Instances -> (instance name) -> Word Filters. These word filters are automatically synced with Mastodon, so supporting apps (including the Mastodon frontend) will work similarly.

On supporting platforms where Pinafore is installed as a PWA (currently ChromeOS and Chrome/Edge on Android), you can share a file from another app directly to Pinafore. For instance, you can share a photo from the Gallery app to Pinafore, and then you can write a toot with that photo attached.
On supporting platforms where Pinafore is installed as a PWA (currently Chrome/Edge on Windows and Mac), the unread notifications and follow requests "badge" number will appear on the app icon itself. This can be disabled in the Wellness settings under "hide unread notification count."
On supporting platforms (currently beta releases of Chrome on Android behind a flag), you'll see preview screenshots of Pinafore before installing it as a PWA.
This release contains experimental internationalization support, as well as French translations (by me) and German translations (helpfully provided by @marcozehe).
It is currently server-side only, so you would have to spin up your own instance of Pinafore to see the French or German version. Docs are in CONTRIBUTING.md

as a navigation shortcut for search (#1838) (c86d2b5)Published by nolanlawson over 4 years ago

The main feature of the new release is that we now use the :focus-visible
web standard to detect whether you're using the keyboard, mouse, or touchscreen and show/hide the focus ring accordingly. For mouse users, this means that the focus ring will appear much less often, which should be less visually distracting. For keyboard users, nothing should change.
If you prefer the old behavior, you can go into the settings and enable "Always show focus ring." In the future, browsers should allow users to set this at the OS or browser level so that it can automatically work for all websites. (This is already in progress for ChromeOS.)
When you click a status to view its thread, the thread should load more quickly now. In most cases, the status will appear instantly, and the replies will load afterwards. This also fixed a bug where, as new statuses arrive, they weren't necessarily presented in the same order that the Mastodon frontend would show them. In addition, there should be more consistent fade-in animations.
The design of the navigation header and the "indicator" (i.e. the thing that moves around as you change columns) has been tweaked to be a bit more consistent, and to make the indicator more prominent. You probably won't notice the difference, but it was driving me nuts.

Statuses will render slightly faster on slower devices, and fade-in animations will be more consistent.

In screen readers, Pinafore now reads out whether a status contains media or polls, and the buttons on media specify whether it's an animated image or not. Navigation buttons work correctly in Voice Control on iOS.

Bugfix release!
Sometimes duplicate toots would show up in very busy threads with lots of replies. This is fixed now.
