Heya, we did the thing!

GoToSocial v0.9.0 Spicy Sloth is out now 🌶️ 🔥

This release was fun to work on, and we hope you enjoy using it! The project is slowly and steadily maturing and getting better :gtspat:

Big thank you to all contributors, folks who opened issues, instance admins who let us know weird stuff was happening, people who seem to like the code, and people who give us money to write the code!

You can get the release from here: https://github.com/superseriousbusiness/gotosocial/releases/tag/v0.9.0

Highlights:

  • PROFILE FIELDS will now be federated. This means you can set key/value fields on your profile, just like other Fedi softwares already have, and they will federate in and out properly! It may take up to 2 days to start seeing fields on remote profiles, be patient ;)
  • Kickass new layout for web view of profiles, including fields!
  • Initial support for request tracing (https://github.com/superseriousbusiness/gotosocial/blob/main/docs/configuration/observability.md)
  • "Subscribe" to an account you follow to receive notifications when they create a new post! (AKA "click the bell" functionality.) Very useful for catching posts of followed accounts who don't post very often.
  • Automatic remote status refetching to get up-to-date replies + edits.
  • Performance improvements for message sending: you can now configure the rate at which messages will be federated outwards, better spacing out CPU usage and avoiding issues with rate-limiting.
  • Lots of caching performance improvements; things should feel generally snappier.
  • Suspend accounts from right within the admin panel by clicking through from reports.
  • We added a whole bunch of trans rights to the code 🏳️‍⚧️ The code has so much trans rights in it now. If you don't like trans rights, you won't like this code.

@noellabo thank you so much for the answer. I see how much work you put into it here and I am glad you are keeping up with it.

hey @noellabo what are your future goals with the fedibird fork? do you want it to be a community project or keep running it as a BDFL? Just trying to understand the state of mastodon forks at the moment and where they hope to be.

@noellabo I know a lot of people install and -soc as an alternative fork to add different features so it would be interesting to submit this to one of those forks and see if its accepted.

wow full emojo reactions! have you made a post on how one might apply this patch to a vanilla mastodon install @noellabo?

@noellabo thanks for all these explanations, I just logged back in and saw all of them! tagging my other account for notification @liaizon

@noellabo I signed up over here to see what features your fork had. I don't understand how the subscriptions work. Can you explain?
