Hubzilla 4.6 Released!
Hubzilla 4.6 is the last major release of the version 4 series and brings some new features, many improvements and bugfixes. Here is an overview of the most notable changes:

Core: improved opengraph support for channels and articles
Core: due to security reasons PDFs will not be embedded by default anymore - admins can enable this feature if desired
Core: new translation: japanese
Core: limited inline SVG support via BBcode
Core: improved support for CDN/Infrastructure caching
Core: add connect button for non-zot networks which are not connected in current location
Core: add selected text as quote if replying via comment button
Core: add CardDAV/CalDAV autodiscovery
Pubcrawl: Improved compatibility with pixelfed
Cart: update paypal button to API v2
Workflow: new addon which provides basic issue tracker capability

Are you already looking forward to Hubzilla 5.0?
Hubzilla 5.0, which will probably be released in the first quarter of 2020 (depending on developer resources), will bring another batch of interesting changes. One of them is the rewrite of the notifications system to use server sent events instead of polling (this landed in development branch about two weeks ago). There is work being done to bring pinned posts to Hubzilla (this literally landed in development branch some hours ago). We are planing to switch to the zot6 protocol as the primary communication protocol for version 5.0 - there are still some issues to be resolved before we can make this step though.

As always we would like to say Thank You! to everybody who is contributing to this project in one way or the other.

Everybody running dev branch at version 4.7 should update to latest version, restart php-fpm (or apache) and run this sql query:

delete from xconfig where cat = 'sse' and xchan = '';

This is due to a bug in sse where in some situations the notifications were not saved correctly.

Nothing serious but should be done sooner rather than later...

You have the right to refuse/reject or possibly moderate comments on your posts by anybody you don't know.
You also have the right to not allow them to comment on your posts in the first place, until such time as they have earned your trust.
You have the right to show your photos and videos to anybody you desire and also NOT show them to anybody you desire.
If your software does not implement these rights, you have the right to fix it or replace it.

The Earth Manifesto
The earth is your mother. She gave you life. Respect her or she will take it away.
Silence is complicity. Speak.

@Indio and I have had a number of long conversations and despite all the best intentions he has decided not to continue with Osada. The hurdles appear to be mostly tribal, not technical; even though there is still no actual spec for OcapPub on the horizon.

But I'm not writing this to bring you bad news.

If you're looking for basic Zot6/ActivityPub compatibility and don't want to open your stream to spammers and dickpics, you can git pull at any time.

Hubzilla 4.4 Released!
Another exciting release with new additions, some bug fixes and overall improvements.

The calendar app now has clickable week/day numbers. Clicking the number will open the appropriate week/day view. Events can easily be adjusted by using the drag and drop functionality. It is now possible to enter the date and time in different formats if this method of setting the event start and end time is preferred. Opengraph meta has been added to the channel pages. Search engines will now hopefully provide better infos about channels.

The twitter addon has been improved to better render posts. The pubcrawl addon, which provides the activitypub protocol, has received new features (thread completion, delete activity) and some bug fixes. The queueworker addon has been refactored for better efficiency. Also the photocache addon has been improved.

Under the hood, besides numerous bugfixes, we started the first little steps towards making zot6 the primary protocol for Hubzilla.

A detailed changelog can be found here.

Hubzilla 4.2 Released!
Some of the most notable changes in Hubzilla 4.2 are

Calendar App
The Events and CalDAV frontends have been merged and streamlined. The Events and CalDAV apps have been deprecated in favour of the Calendar app which now comprehends both.

Reply to comments
If the feature is enabled from the conversation tools (item drop down menu), it is now possible to directly reply to comments. The timeline view will remain flattened in the Hubzilla stream. In Friendica and Mastodon this kind of comments will appear beneath the commented comment.

Administration
An admin option to store photo thumbnails on disk instead of DB has been implemented. This will reduce DB load and size. Also the DB upgrade tool has been improved to provide more info (source code of failed updates) in case of failure.

Federation
Activitypub federation has been improved. We will now deal with profile changes on the fly with platforms that support that kind of messages. Also relaying of comments to activitypub servers has been improved. especially for Friendica and Mastodon which support comment relaying.

Usability
It is now possibly to reset the profile photo to its default. Also the possibility to remove cover photos has been implemented.
