Unreleased

Added

• Add follow recommendations for onboarding (Gargron, Gargron, Gargron, Gargron, Gargron, Gargron, Gargron, noellabo, noellabo, Gargron, Gargron, ClearlyClaire, ClearlyClaire, ClearlyClaire)
  • Tutorial on first web UI launch has been replaced with follow suggestions
  • Follow suggestions take user locale into account and are a mix of accounts most followed by currently active local users, and accounts that wrote the most shared/favourited posts in the last 30 days
  • Only accounts that have opted-in to being discoverable from their profile settings, and that do not require follow requests, will be suggested
  • Moderators can review suggestions for every supported locale and suppress specific suggestions from appearing and admins can ensure certain accounts always show up in suggestions from the settings area
  • New users no longer automatically follow admins
• Add server rules (Gargron, ClearlyClaire)
  • Admins can create and edit itemized server rules
  • They are available through the REST API and on the about page
• Add canonical e-mail blocks for suspended accounts (Gargron)
  • Normally, people can make multiple accounts using the same e-mail address using the + trick or by inserting or removing . characters from the first part of their address
  • Once an account is suspended, it will no longer be possible for the e-mail address used by that account to be used for new sign-ups in any of its forms
• Add management of delivery availability in admin UI (noellabo)
• Add system checks to dashboard in admin UI (Gargron, ClearlyClaire, ClearlyClaire)
  • The dashboard will now warn you if you some Sidekiq queues are not being processed, if you have not defined any server rules, or if you forgot to run database migrations from the latest Mastodon upgrade

• Add Message-ID header to outgoing emails (ClearlyClaire)
  • Some e-mail spam filters penalize e-mails that have a Message-ID header that uses a different domain name than the sending e-mail address. Now, the same domain will be used

• Add guard against DNS rebinding attacks (noellabo, noellabo)
• Add HTTP header to explicitly opt-out of FLoC by default (ClearlyClaire)
• Add missing push notification title for polls and statuses (ClearlyClaire, mkljczk, ClearlyClaire)
• Add POST /api/v1/emails/confirmations to REST API (Gargron, Gargron)
  • This method allows an app through which a user signed-up to request a new confirmation e-mail to be sent, or to change the e-mail of the account before it is confirmed
• Add GET /api/v1/accounts/lookup to REST API (Gargron, ClearlyClaire)
  • This method allows to quickly convert a username of a known account to an ID that can be used with the REST API, or to check if a username is available for sign-up
• Add policy param to POST /api/v1/push/subscriptions in REST API (Gargron)
  • This param allows an app to control from whom notifications should be delivered as push notifications to the app
• Add details to error response for POST /api/v1/accounts in REST API (Gargron)
  • This attribute allows an app to display more helpful information to the user about why the sign-up did not succeed
