* Summary: fix slowness due to layout thrashing when reloading a large set of status updates
in order to limit the maximum size of a status in a list view (e.g. the home timeline), so as to avoid having to scroll all the way through an abnormally large status update (see https://github.com/tootsuite/mastodon/pull/8205), the following steps are taken:
•the element containing the status is rendered in the browser
•its height is calculated, to determine if it exceeds the maximum height threshold.
Unfortunately for performance, these steps are carried out in the componentDidMount(/Update) method, which also performs style modifications on the element. The combination of height request and style modification during javascript evaluation in the browser leads to layout-thrashing, where the elements are repeatedly re-laid-out (see https://developers.google.com/web/fundamentals/performance/rendering/avoid-large-complex-layouts-and-layout-thrashing & https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Mozilla/Firefox/Performance_best_practices_for_Firefox_fe_engineers).
The solution implemented here is to memoize the collapsed state in Redux the first time the status is seen (e.g. when fetched as part of a small batch, to populate the home timeline) , so that on subsequent re-renders, the value can be queried, rather than recalculated. This strategy is derived from https://github.com/tootsuite/mastodon/pull/4439 & https://github.com/tootsuite/mastodon/pull/4909, and should resolve https://github.com/tootsuite/mastodon/issues/12455.

* remove getSnapshotBeforeUpdate from status
* remove componentWillUnmount from status
* persist last-intersected status update and restore when ScrollableList is restored
e.g. when navigating from home-timeline to a status conversational thread and <Back again
* cache currently-viewing status id to avoid calling redux with identical value
* refactor collapse toggle to pass explicit boolean
* Show badge on group actor in WebUI
* Do not notify in case of by following group actor
* If you mention group actor, also mention group actor followers
* Relax characters that can be used in username (same as Application)
* Revert "Relax characters that can be used in username (same as Application)"
This reverts commit 7e10a137b878d0db1b5252c52106faef5e09ca4b.
* Delete display_name method
* Fix poll options not being selectable via keyboard
Fixes#12384
* Improve styling of poll option checkboxes/radio buttons
* Use more appropriate ARIA roles for poll options
* Allow switching between single and multiple choice from keyboard
* Coding style
* Avoid using .bind()
* Add follow_request notification type
The notification type already existed in the backend but was never pushed
to the front-end. This also means translation strings were also available
for the backend, from the notification mailer.
Unlike other notification types, these are off by default, to match what
I remember of Gargron's view on the topic: that follow requests should not
clutter notifications and should instead be reviewed at the user's own
leisure in the dedicated column.
Since follow requests have their own column, I've deemed it unnecessary to
add a specific tab for them in the notification quick filter.
* Show follow request link in single-column if there are pending requests, even if account isn't locked
* Push follow requests from notifications to the follow_requests list
* Offer to accept or reject follow request from the notification
* Redesign follow request notification
* Add backend support for bookmarks
Bookmarks behave like favourites, except they aren't shared with other
users and do not have an associated counter.
* Add spec for bookmark endpoints
* Add front-end support for bookmarks
* Introduce OAuth scopes for bookmarks
* Add bookmarks to archive takeout
* Fix migration
* Coding style fixes
* Fix rebase issue
* Update bookmarked_statuses to latest UI changes
* Update bookmark actions to properly reflect status changes in state
* Add bookmarks item to single-column layout
* Make active bookmarks red
* Fix unread toot indicator not honoring onlyMedia in public and community timelines
* Fixup: `unread` already accounts for new content in pending items
Fetching statuses from all followed accounts at once takes too long
within Postgres. Fetching them one by one and merging in Ruby
could be a lot less resource-intensive
Because the query for dynamically fetching the home timeline is so
heavy, we can no longer offer it when the home timeline is missing
* Add some explanation to the mute modal dialog
* Remove `isSubmitting` from mute modal code, this wasn't used
* Refactor block modal

* Refactor SCSS a bit
* Put mute modal toggle to the same side as in the report dialog for consistency
* Reword mute explanation
* Fix mute explanation styling
* Left-align all text in mute confirmation modal
* Change silenced accounts to require approval on follow
* Also require approval for follows by people explicitly muted by target accounts
* Do not auto-accept silenced or muted accounts when switching from locked to unlocked
* Add `follow_requests_count` to verify_credentials
* Show “Follow requests” menu item if needed even if account is locked
* Add tests
* Correctly reflect that follow requests weren't auto-accepted when local account is silenced
* Accept follow requests from user-muted accounts to avoid leaking mutes
