Hello everyone! After much testing and prodding and poking, we're ready to release v0.7.0 Stormy Sloth into the world!

This is the umpteenth alpha release of GoToSocial (we stopped counting), and it brings a massive amount of new stuff, fixes, and tweaks.

Thank you for your continued support, and enjoy the release!

Release Highlights

  • Basic video support (mp4 only). You can finally upload videos, and view videos from remote instances too. Not all mp4 files work, currently -- this is something we'll investigate for next release most likely.
  • Support for federating reports in and out of GoToSocial, and viewing reports via the admin settings panel (this feature was sponsored by NLnet).
  • Support for webp attachments, avatars, and headers.
  • Users can now create, remove, and view status bookmarks!
  • Domain blocks now apply on a wildcard basis, so you can block a second level domain (like example.org) and it will apply to subdomains too (like poop.example.org etc).
  • HTTP request throttling -- only a certain number of http requests are served at a time now. This should vastly improve responsiveness under load on small instances.
  • Much better logic for pruning old avatars + headers, leading to gb of disk space savings.
  • So many bug fixes and performance improvements.

Migration notes

Upgrading

To upgrade to 0.7.0 from a previous release:

Binary/tar

  1. Stop GoToSocial
  2. Untar the new release, including the web assets and html templates.
  3. Edit your config.yaml file as necessary (see below).
  4. Start GoToSocial

Docker

  1. Stop GoToSocial.
  2. Pull the new docker container (superseriousbusiness/gotosocial:0.7.0 or superseriousbusiness/gotosocial:latest)
  3. Start GoToSocial.

config.yaml

The configuration file has changed since the previous release. We recommend copying the new file from example/config.yaml and pasting values into it from your previous config.yaml. You can see a diff of the config file here: v0.6.0...v0.7.0#diff-c071e03510b2c57e193a44503fd9528a785f0f411497cc75841a9f8d0b1ac622

Database migrations

This release contains several database migrations which will run the first time you start up this new version. Be sure not to interrupt this migration process. This will take anywhere between a couple seconds and ten minutes (on slower hardware). Please be patient!

Sqlite format changes

0.7.0 now uses SQLite's WAL journal mode by default. This means there will be some new SQLite related files in your GoToSocial directory:

  • sqlite.db-shm
  • sqlite.db-wal

When you do SQLite backups, you should back these files up too (you do have backups, right?).

If you use Postgres rather than SQLite, you can ignore this.

Updating from 0.7.0-rc2

0.7.0-rc2 was slightly broken. If you're getting lots of 'not found' errors for avatars and headers, after running 0.7.0-rc2, see here for steps to fix it: #1505

If you skipped over rc2, ignore this :)
