#Mastodon 4.3 is out! 🎉 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:

@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.
Föderation EN Di 08.10.2024 15:39:33
@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.

@Gargron Thank you. May I suggest adding that link to the blog post?
Föderation EN Do 10.10.2024 11:24:30
@Gargron @Mastodon Good morning. I set everything up, and posted some articles after that, and it's not working here. Is there anything else that I have to set up?

@vladcampos @Mastodon you add the fediverse:creator tag to your website, and then use the verification options in Mastodon 4.3 profile settings page to specify which domain this should work on. https://blog.joinmastodon.org/2024/07/highlighting-journalism-on-mastodon/

Föderation EN Do 10.10.2024 01:09:13
@andypiper @Mastodon Is there any delay or propagation needed for it to work? I added the tag and posted a link (below) after that, but it didn't work.
Föderation EN Do 10.10.2024 21:57:48
@vladcampos @Mastodon you will also need to add the domain into your profile settings - apart from that I don't think there should be a delay.
Föderation EN Di 08.10.2024 15:59:31
@Mastodon Great! 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 Thank you! Grouped notifications are a game changer.

@Mastodon glad to see quote posts are next on your agenda!

@Mastodon Great update, the gui now looks so much better on the web! 🤩
Föderation EN Di 08.10.2024 19:31:37
@Mastodon congrats, but on my mobile device (Pixel 5, LOS 21, Firefox 131) the UI is noticeably less responsive while scrolling.
Föderation EN Di 08.10.2024 19:37:53
@Mastodon looks great! Thanks
Föderation EN Di 08.10.2024 19:45:42
@Mastodon change it back it's giving me eyestrain 💕
Föderation EN Di 08.10.2024 19:52:10
@Mastodon Does this mean we'll actually see this feature added somewhere in the 4.3 branch? Because that would be awesome.

Föderation EN Di 08.10.2024 20:00:24
@Mastodon I wondered why my instance was looking a tad different, ta. 🙂
Föderation EN Di 08.10.2024 20:00:50
@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
Webpacker requires Yarn ">=1 <4" and you are using 4.0.2
This version of Webpacker does not support Yarn 4.0.2. Please downgrade to a supported version of Yarn https://yarnpkg.com/lang/en/docs/install/
Exiting!
Föderation EN Di 08.10.2024 20:04:15
@Mastodon Can we have a 'not quite so bright' theme please. I prefer light themes but not THAT light. Or is this something the server admin can add?
Föderation · Di 08.10.2024 20:08:45
Föderation EN Di 08.10.2024 20:30:02
@Mastodon Remember to read the release notes!
Just saying from someone who didn't.....😜

Awesome! Yet I will be super duper happy when mixed media upload (image/video) will be possible! :D
Föderation EN Di 08.10.2024 21:24:57
Any news on when maximum characters per post will be configurable by admins via their console?
Föderation EN Di 08.10.2024 22:05:54
@Mastodon @Gargron
Sorry to say notifications are broken on the android app. The notification tab in the app won't update or show complete info.
Happened a month or two ago on my phone, then it seemed to be fixed. Now happening again, and also on my tablet. I saw a few other people mention this too.
Reinstalling the app via playstore doesn't help.
Also, links to YouTube no longer work. Clicking on the link gets a 'no app installed to handle that' warning.
Mastodon 2.7.2 (121)
Am I on the wrong version?
Edit: I have all the latest Android and OneUI updates. Galaxy S23 Ultra, Galaxy Tab S7. Cl3ared the Mastodon cache. Rebooted. Reinstalled the app. Rebooted. Didn't help.

@Mastodon It still needs to look better. I can help with Figma mock-ups if you have the time to then develop it.
Föderation EN Di 08.10.2024 23:54:59
@Mastodon
Mastodon keeps improving. It is a quiet way. Mastodon respects privacy. Also, it does not compromise with privacy and security. Mastodon swiftly removes false news or untrue information if someone finds fake news or unfounded information..
Föderation EN Mi 09.10.2024 00:18:19
@Mastodon And as usual, a seamless upgrade performed successfully on my instance! Good job.
Föderation EN Mi 09.10.2024 09:30:39
@Mastodon UI got ugly imo 😕 Please add previous dark theme as an option to select. Also, I'd really appreciate having good light theme too (less bright, with colored elements) 🙏
Föderation EN Mi 09.10.2024 10:23:46
@Mastodon
I have some tiny suggestion on the notification page.
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.
Föderation EN Mi 09.10.2024 12:07:48
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 :(

@Mastodon
There are users like me who operate an instance that is hosted and maintained by IT companies.
It is therefore almost impossible for me to do certain things.
Is it possible, for example, to add an option to delete accounts in the account moderation? E.g. spam accounts?
At the moment I can block the accounts, but not delete them.
It would be great if there was a button next to the accounts in the account moderation, with confirmation that an account should be deleted.
Föderation EN Mi 09.10.2024 20:03:11
@Mastodon
The best update is useless if successful things from the old version are broken. The display of the notifications with the avatar on the left and the text column minimised is horrible. Likewise, shortening the text without considering blank lines or simply reducing the text size. Or these mini icons that are almost impossible to hit. You've really messed up.
Föderation EN Do 10.10.2024 23:05:35
@Mastodon looking good
Föderation EN Mo 14.10.2024 09:22:33
@Mastodon This new toots look in the mobile android app is not particularly handy for me. How I can switch it back to the previous one? 🤔🙄
Föderation EN Di 15.10.2024 16:48:02
@Mastodon still no dark mode icon for iOS 18!
Föderation EN Mi 16.10.2024 23:31:47
@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.
Föderation EN Mo 28.10.2024 19:51:03
@Mastodon cool but when will we get quote retweets?
Föderation EN Di 26.11.2024 18:58:07
@Mastodon there’s a live feed view on the web version that isn’t available in the iOS app - any chance this could be under the tree this year?
