Very easy upgrade to the latest version of Lemmy, v0.19.5. Major updates from this and the previous point release:
-
Local Only Communities: Local communities will not federate, they’re “local only” :P. This is good for meta discussions and I might make this community local only, for instance.
-
Post hiding: you can now hide posts as a dropdown option!
-
Vote display user setting: There is now a user setting to change the way vote counts are displayed, called vote display mode.
-
Improved moderation tools: URL blocklists can prevent links to specific sites (we have no use for this right now), plus some improved report history and mod history.
-
Federation with Wordpress and others: We will now federate with some other software, like Wordpress. Kind of cool.
This community is amazing and we barely have to do any moderation. There are some new tools here but we have no intent to become “heavy handed” in any way. Continue being amazing people!
