Since our last release earlier this month, we’ve had ~30 commits to Lemmy.

Major Changes

  • Added comment and post reporting in the front end, and cleaned up the reporting API.
    • Note: these are local-only currently, reports are not yet federated.
  • The JWT secret is now auto-generated by the database.
    • Note: this will log out all users, so users will have to log in again.
  • Lots of smaller UI fixes listed below.
