[4.2.0] - 2023-09-21

The following changelog entries focus on changes visible to users, administrators, client developers or federated software developers, but there has also been a lot of code modernization, refactoring, and tooling work, in particular by @danielmbrasil, @mjankowski, @nschonni, @renchap, and @takayamaki.

Added

Changed

  • Change hashtags to be displayed separately when they are the last line of a post (renchap, renchap, renchap)
  • Change reblogs to be excluded from "Posts and replies" tab in web UI (Gargron)
  • Change interaction modal in web interface (Gargron, ClearlyClaire, ClearlyClaire, ClearlyClaire, ClearlyClaire, mgmn, tribela, ClearlyClaire, ClearlyClaire)
  • Change design of link previews in web UI (Gargron, ClearlyClaire, Gargron, Gargron, Gargron, Gargron, c960657)
  • Change "direct message" nomenclature to "private mention" in web UI (Gargron)
  • Change translation feature to cover Content Warnings, poll options and media descriptions (c960657, S-H-GAMELINKS, c960657, ClearlyClaire)
  • Change account search to match by text when opted-in (jsgoldstein, Gargron)
  • Change import feature to be clearer, less error-prone and more reliable (ClearlyClaire, mgmn)
  • Change local and federated timelines to be tabs of a single “Live feeds” column (ClearlyClaire, Gargron, mgmn, Plastikmensch, ClearlyClaire)
  • Change user archive export to be faster and more reliable, and export .zip archives instead of .tar.gz ones (ClearlyClaire, TheEssem)
  • Change mastodon-streaming systemd unit files to be templated (e-nomem)
  • Change statsd integration to disable sidekiq metrics by default (mjankowski, mjankowski, ClearlyClaire) This deprecates statsd support and disables the sidekiq integration unless STATSD_SIDEKIQ is set to true. This is because the nsa gem is unmaintained, and its sidekiq integration is known to add very significant overhead. Later versions of Mastodon will have other ways to get the same metrics.
  • Change replica support to native Rails adapter (krainboltgreene, Gargron, Gargron, Gargron, Gargron, ClearlyClaire, ClearlyClaire, ClearlyClaire, ClearlyClaire) This is a breaking change, dropping makara support, and requiring you to update your database configuration if you are using replicas. To tell Mastodon to use a read replica, you can either set the REPLICA_DB_NAME environment variable (along with REPLICA_DB_USER, REPLICA_DB_PASS, REPLICA_DB_HOST, and REPLICA_DB_PORT, if they differ from the primary database), or the REPLICA_DATABASE_URL environment variable if your configuration is based on DATABASE_URL.

  • Change from node-redis to ioredis for streaming (gmemstr)

  • Change 'favourite' to 'favorite' for American English (marekr, gunchleoc, nabijaczleweli)
  • Change ActivityStreams representation of suspended accounts to not use a blank name (ClearlyClaire)

  • Change sidekiq-bulk's batch size from 10,000 to 1,000 jobs in one Redis call (ClearlyClaire)
  • Change translation to only be offered for supported languages (c960657, c960657) This adds the /api/v1/instance/translation_languages REST API endpoint that returns an object with the supported translation language pairs in the form: 
    {
  "fr": ["en", "de"]
}
    (where fr is a supported source language and en and de or supported output language when translating a fr string)
