The new 4.2.8 release is out today. It's a small update that introduces a mechanic that will automatically switch sign-ups to manual review if no moderators have been active for a while. This should reduce vectors for spam and abuse in the future.

We've released one more security patch earlier today, for the versions 4.1, 4.2, and nightly. If you are using nightly, you can upgrade to the 4.3.0-nightly.2024-02-17-security tag to get the patches. Please upgrade as soon as possible!

 @MastodonEngineering Please include the full version number of the latest patched version in posts like this. Otherwise, I have no idea whether you are telling me about the new version I just installed or another, newer one that I still haven't dealt with.  @MastodonEngineering Please mention the release number(s) in future release messages and add a sentence to clarify that this is addressing #mastoadmin s. We just released important security patches for versions 4.1, 4.2, nightly, and the already discontinued 3.5 and 4.0. If you are using nightly, you can upgrade to the 4.3.0-nightly.2024-02-15-security tag to get the patches. Please upgrade as soon as possible!

 @MastodonEngineering I can't post pictures or see other pictures in the browser, Tusky or the app now. (Instance: Mastodon.online)  @MastodonEngineering how do you actually know which versions of Mastodon receive long-term support? @MastodonEngineering I'm very confused right now. 2 days ago I updated from 4.2.5 to 4.2.6. Today I've received a new mail about software updates. I went here to see if there's a new toot about the update but there's nothing new. But I see a 4.2.7 release tagged. Can you confirm? We just released critical security patches for versions 4.1, 4.2, nightly, and the already discontinued 3.5 and 4.0. If you are using nightly, you can upgrade to the `4.3.0-nightly.2024-02-02-security` tag to get the patch. Please upgrade as soon as possible! We are planning to release critical security patches for versions 3.5, 4.1, 4.2 and nightly this Thursday, Feb 01, at 15:00 UTC. We encourage server administrators to plan for a timely upgrade to ensure their Mastodon server is protected.

 @MastodonEngineering feed stupid prompts, get stupid results! I fed this toot to stable diffusion with default settings and this is what I got 😂 Notice cyrillic in the first picture, chinese in the second and the hiding admin in the third. May Mastodon not follow the chart of securet ur ally 😂 We've just released Mastodon versions 4.2.4 and 4.1.12 with bugfixes and security improvements. Please consider updating!

We've released the patches 4.2.3, 4.1.11, and 3.5.16 with some regular bug fixes. Please consider upgrading to the latest version, as support for 3.5 and 4.0 will end soon.

 @MastodonEngineering @MastodonEngineering There will be a danger in the future for mastodon if bad people are using edited scripts in their servers to federate and fake stats. We've released the patches 4.2.1, 4.1.10, 4.0.12 and 3.5.15 today with some regular bug fixes. This is probably the last release on the 4.0 line as it's nearing its EOL.   @MastodonEngineering Where would one find release notes? Edit: nvm found it https://github.com/mastodon/mastodon/releases/tag/v4.2.1 #Mastodon 4.2 is out! This massive update features new search functionality and many usability improvements. See the extensive changelog and upgrade instructions here:

 Can y’all PLEASE stop trying to depreciate the Local timeline, it is GREAT for instances that haven’t grown to be too damn huge to still work as a community.  @MastodonEngineering FYI, in the upgrade notes there's no mention of changing the old default nginx site file to support the new maximum attachment size. "client_max_body_size 80m;" if unchanged causes a response of "413Request Entity Too Large" when trying to attach a file greater than 80mb of course. There's a mention of editing the nginx.conf for the streaming server changes but nothing about the limit above shipped with previous versions that needs to be changed when upgrading. We just released security patches for versions 3.5, 4.0, 4.1 and 4.2. If you are using nightly, you can upgrade to 4.2.0-rc2 safely. We strongly suggest you upgrade to one of those versions in the coming days.

 @MastodonEngineering Running rc2 on my personal server, seems stable. The requirement for a specific version of Ruby is a bit of a pain, since I can't rely on Debian ruby3 packages. Unless I'm doing it wrong. :/ We are planning to release security patches for versions 3.5, 4.0, 4.1 and nightly next Tuesday, Sep 19, at 15:00 UTC. We encourage server administrators to plan for a timely upgrade to ensure their Mastodon server is protected.

@MastodonEngineering At a time when people are running the RC (at your request) it would be nice for it to have a patch as well  Following the dramatic announcement of @MastodonEngineering that a security release will be available tomorrow at 15:00, and due to the unavailability of a sysadmin at this time, we're going down for a couple of days. Enjoy your life without notifications 😗 Yeah, this https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2023-4863 is going to be harmful for a while. Who can trust their computers now? If we ever could. #Mastodon 4.2 has entered the release candidate stage. We expect the stable to drop next week! https://github.com/mastodon/mastodon/releases/tag/v4.2.0-rc1

 @MastodonEngineering can someone give me an eli5 about the changes. I don’t really understand the change log or what full text search is. The 4.2 release is dropping soon. Help us get all the new labels and messages translated into your language through Crowdin! The third beta of #Mastodon 4.2.0 is now available. We're pretty much just fine tuning search now! https://github.com/mastodon/mastodon/releases/tag/v4.2.0-beta3

 @MastodonEngineering Assuming no ship stoppers, is there a date for final release? I don't want to install the beta but I do plan to install 4.2.0 when it drops. @MastodonEngineering My wishlist: 🎀GIFs (there’s someone I interact with a lot who’s stuck on the ex-birdsite because GIFs make it easier for them to communicate. Implementing GIFs will help complete their transition here)  The second beta of #Mastodon 4.2.0 has arrived. We're getting there! See the extensive changelog and upgrade instructions here: https://github.com/mastodon/mastodon/releases/tag/v4.2.0-beta2

@MastodonEngineering @tchambers Is there a place for non-experts to go for information on how/when these changes will affect us? Does it depend on our instance and our interface software (if any)?  The first beta of #Mastodon 4.2.0 is now available for testing! There are too many improvements to count. See the extensive changelog and upgrade instructions here: https://github.com/mastodon/mastodon/releases/tag/v4.2.0-beta1

 @MastodonEngineering Can you pull translations from Crowdin before the next release, please? They are missing fro beta3 😉 There is also another really important feature lacking. Time based posts. Ability to set a feature date for when a post will be published. Also very good for privacy. When you are on vacation and don't want people to know you are away from home. Or need to time an event but are not sure you will be able to post at the right time. Example a birthday or celebration. Users should not have to use 3rd party sites. 12
