Gregory's Server#Mastodon 4.3 is out! ๐ We've made notifications easier to manage and improved the look and feel of the whole app across the board. And that's just the tip of the iceberg! See what you can expect once your server upgrades:

 @vladcampos No, it's no longer manual! Or rather, now it's manual on your side. Go to the Verification tab on your profile settings and add the domains you'd like to appear on under Author Attribution. @Mastodon Great๏ผ My Chrome extension Works https://chromewebstore.google.com/detail/moemfdcocgppacjkgbjmghhaeadaphdh  @Mastodon Any way to go back to the previous theme? The new one is very hard to read and harsh on the eyes :S Other than that, great job!  @Mastodon congrats, but on my mobile device (Pixel 5, LOS 21, Firefox 131) the UI is noticeably less responsive while scrolling.   @Mastodon Does this mean we'll actually see this feature added somewhere in the 4.3 branch? Because that would be awesome. @Mastodon Yarn 4 is required. Webpacker does not support Yarn 4. So I can't update the server. RAILS_ENV=production bundle exec rails assets:precompile @Mastodon I follow the releases via github RSS. While this update had more steps, it was one of the most pain-free updates I've had with Mastodon!  Awesome! Yet I will be super duper happy when mixed media upload (image/video) will be possible! :D  @Mastodon Urgent appeal, please help my family in Palestine, Gaza. We have been living for a year in a deadly war, experiencing hunger, poverty and displacement. Your simple donation can help my family get out of Gaza and give them a chance to live in peace. Please do not leave us ๐ต๐ธโค๐  @BobHorowitz @Mastodon @Gargron I finally figured out why it was happening, I forgot to copy-paste several lines of code ๐ @Mastodon @Mastodon And as usual, a seamless upgrade performed successfully on my instance! Good job. @Mastodon can we reduce the space taken up by each notifications? it's showing way less notifications in a page than before (I can only see two and a half per screen on my laptop). for example, can we put the "reply" text and arrow on the same line with user ID and icons? I don't see the reason for these to taken up three lines. Every time the Mastodon website and app is more beautiful, the changes have been for the better. Thank you! Only one thing is missing: to correct the bug of avatars and headers in GIF format in mastodon.social, they are very ugly colors and poor quality. I have contacted GitHub and right here in Mastodon but it seems that they will not give any solution :( https://github.com/mastodon/mastodon/issues/31465#issue-2471374551 @Mastodon @Mastodon   @Mastodon v4.3 is still less performant than e.g. @phanpy - see the comparison below using Lighthouse. Please improve your #PageSpeed Insights performance score: https://github.com/mastodon/mastodon/issues/32378 @Mastodon Mastodon has been working poorly since the last update. Video isn't working. Today it has been down for at least 10 hours. It won't load. |
@Mastodon Thank you! As for "Helping writers and journalists", it was not clear to me if it is still a manual process. I'm a writer, and you like to have this set on my account.
