We’re excited to announce that Mastodon 4.4 is now generally available as an upgrade for all Mastodon servers. The update brings improvements to profiles, navigation, list management, media controls, server moderation notes, and more.

in reply to Mastodon

Mastodon 4.4 also contains the first part of our Quote Post implementation - display of incoming Quote Posts. Full support (including creation) will be part of the next version: Mastodon 4.5, coming later this year. We’re already hard at work on the next set of updates for that release.
in reply to Mastodon

We hope you’ll enjoy the enhancements in Mastodon 4.4, and we’re grateful for your support and feedback. We’re a small team, and we depend on your donations to continue making Mastodon better with features and updates. Please contribute to support our mission if you can.

just chucked a few coins this way, so should you ;)
in reply to Mastodon

one thing, but are private chats end-to-end encrypted?
in reply to coso

@cosothegreat no. We would suggest using a separate app that supports end-to-end encryption if that is something that you need.

Will it be possible to filter out quote posts from the timeline?
in reply to Renaud Chaput

I am pretty sure, that other Fediverse services - which have quotes since before Mastodon existed - cannot be filtered this way.

So what does 'incoming quote posts' exactly mean? If I quote in the Ivory client, I'm not seeing the quote in the webinterface.
in reply to Emil Jacobs - Collectifission

@collectifission Ivory's quotes are not proper quote posts, but more of a rich preview when a post contains "RE: <status url>”
We are implementing quote posts with full control for the user (choose if you want to be quoted, retract a previous quote…) which requires proper server and client support (see blog.joinmastodon.org/2025/02/…)
@Mastodon

Roni Laukkarinen reshared this.

in reply to Mastodon

Is it now possible to somehow create quote posts through the REST API, if I have some app or tool of my own using the API, or does it only work for now when the quote is coming from another (non-Mastodon) instance over ActivityPub?
in reply to Kuba Suder • @mackuba.eu on 🦋

@mackuba This is not yet possible. The only way to see quotes right now is with self-quotes from external ActivityPub servers that support part of our FEP.

@Mastodon

in reply to Mastodon

Thank you!!
Perhaps it has been addressed, but 4.4 doesn't seem to include a total opt-out for QRT. Are there explained reasons for this? Personally I love QRT, but I know people who doesn't, for various motives.
Thanks!!
in reply to Mastodon

Excellent job @MastodonEngineering !

Have been really impressed by the upgrades and the direction you are taking this fantastic platform. Keep up the good work!

@Linux @xrobau I hadn't realized that 4.4.0 was released. I am still on rc.1. Okay, gonna get this taken care of now. LOL
in reply to House Panther

@housepanther
A lot of performance improvements and security patches applied to this build. It is why I tagged my admin @xrobau <-- 👋
in reply to Mastodon

cool. hope this comes to glitched at some point. what a version number. 4.4? Hehahahaha.
in reply to Renaud Chaput

@renchap cool! thanks for that. I will update our server this weekend when I have time to breathe.
in reply to Renaud Chaput

@renchap @ke7zum LOL doing release publicity for other forks as well as your own is going above and beyond ♥️
in reply to Mastodon

good to see @lritter in the release blog 😏

thanks again for your work, updating my instance from 4.3.9 went smooth as far as I can see now.
in reply to Mastodon

I want to sincerely thank you and the whole team for making my life better through Mastodon. You all do so much good in the world. After X and the state of social media, this is very much still needed. Thank you for providing me my happy place.
in reply to Mastodon

Would be nice to get any explanations of the different post-install or depreciation messages of some update steps. I ignored all of them and it went well. However - in some cases additional steps might be required as per the hints after completion of a specific update step.
Regardless of this, many thanks for the great work to the Mastodon team.
in reply to Mastodon

offtopic: is it possible to use the android app without a web browser? because the login looks like it doesnt work
in reply to Mastodon

speaking of the video player, is it possible to disable this sticky video player (or whatever it's called)?
in reply to Mastodon

The big problem we at Beamship ran into was upgrading Ruby but it does seem faster now.

@XxPppp678Xx Mastodon.social runs the very latest code, and those changes have already been applied there over time as they were implemented.

"Don’t want someone to follow you anymore? You don’t have to block them, simply tap “Remove follower” in the dropdown menu on their profile."

Nice.

in reply to Mastodon

it’s the same ugly animation bug when starring a post, and randomly jumping discover thread during scroll… two things I really wish to be fixed for a long time now
in reply to Mastodon

Whelp, 4.4 broke my shit, had to restore from backup. Will try again tomorrow, too tired tonight. 😀

A docker App for Truenas scale would be HUGE, and I'm too much of an idiot to put one together myself I suspect. 😉

in reply to Mastodon

'... showing how many of the people you follow are following that person ...'
This feature can be abused to detect someone's follow. [X] Drop it.

What happened to this?
blog.joinmastodon.org/2018/07/cage-the-mastodon/
It's a very reasonable explanation to skip the quotes. Discussions don't become endless then.

Found this:
blog.joinmastodon.org/2025/02/bringing-quote-posts-to-mastodon/

'You will be able to withdraw your post from the quoted context at any time.'
Sounds confusing.

in reply to Mastodon

Did anyone else experience hash changes for typescript@patch version 5.8.2 from hash 5786d5 as shipped with mastodon release 4.4.0 to hash 8c6c40
(and similar for version 5.7.3)
in the `yarn install immutable` step?

And why did the original post provoke 50x errors on several mastodon sites?

in reply to Mastodon

After the lists improvement: Have I still to follow the account to put it in a list?
in reply to GambaJo

@GambaJo yes, you need to follow an account to add it to a list. However, you can mark a list so that the members do not appear in the main feed, using the "Hide members in Home" option.
in reply to Mastodon

Can someone please do something about the large 'Verberg' (hide) button on pictures in posts that obscure text very often?
in reply to Mastodon

potere aiutarmi con la verifica del profilo, ho inserito i codici sia nel mio blog che su Mastodon, ma senza risultato. Grazie.
