Moderation preferences
Hello again! We're back with a quick incremental update this week as we continue on our quest for fediverse feature-completeness. Let's get into it.
Last week, we introduced domain-based blocking to complement user blocking, and we improved how ActivityPub notifications are displayed to make it easier for you to spot conversations when people respond to your posts.
What's new with ActivityPub?
Following the last couple of weeks of work around blocking controls, we just rolled out a new moderation screen within ActivityPub preferences. Now you can track, edit, and update lists of blocked users and domains in one place.
Another quick improvement: If you unfollow someone, we now automatically purge their past posts from all your feeds. This is expected/usual behavior across most social apps, but it's not default behavior in ActivityPub.
Now it works the way you're used to inside Ghost.
Magic Pages ActivityPub beta
In addition to our ActivityPub open beta available on Ghost(Pro), there's now an independent community social web beta running on Magic Pages.
Jannis, always ahead of the curve, figured out how to get everything up and running even before we'd finished writing our self-hosting documentation!
It's very cool seeing the service running for the first time in multiple places.
Next up: Mentions
An obvious thing that's been missing from our social web beta is @mentions. Next week, we're hoping to change that.
