Hello earthlings!

Here's the v0.3.4 Salacious Sloth release of GoToSocial that all the cool kids have been talking about!

This is the tenth ALPHA release of GoToSocial 🎆

Highlights

  • Unused avatars and headers are cleaned up now, in addition to old media attachments. This will lead to some disk space savings :)
  • We did a lot of performance improvements in this release! Things will feel nippier in general thanks to improved database indexes.
  • We tightened up some of the block checking logic, so you should see fewer posts mentioning or replying to domains or accounts that you have blocked.
  • We have a new endpoint for manually triggering media cleanup, check the swagger docs :)
  • Custom emojis endpoint is now implemented. We don't yet federate custom emojis, but this brings us a step closer to that functionality.

Migration notes

This release adds a couple of indexes to the database during a migration step. You don't need to do anything special for this, just let it run (it will likely take less than a minute), and don't interrupt it.
