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.
