Coming to #Pachli Current in a few days - support for translating posts on your device.
Helpful if your server doesn't support translation, and can be used to translate posts your server refuses to translate.
Won't be available in the #FDroid and #GitHub releases, as this feature uses the same non-free Google machine learning libraries as the "Warn if you're posting in the wrong language" feature.
If a post contains a filtered quote post, should it be filtered? š¤
Small update on #PhanpySocialDev and those on *upcoming* Mastodon v4.3+: new V2 settings for filtered notifications.
References:
API: https://github.com/mastodon/mastodon/pull/31343
Web UI: https://github.com/mastodon/mastodon/pull/31342
Mastodon Web UI obviously has *way more* explanatory copy for every filter choice and what happens etc.
We are happy to announce the first beta release of Mastodon 4.3 š 11 months in the works, it is chock-full of improvements, the most prominent being notification grouping and new filtering capabilities, as well as extensive usability overhauls.
Please note that this is a beta, and the stable release is still to come. If you are upgrading your server to it, read the changelog carefully, and open GitHub issues if you encounter anything unexpected.

š Very interesting post visibility comparison table by Stefano, on this code review for adding Akkoma/Pleroma's Local-only posting on Phanpy https://github.com/cheeaun/phanpy/pull/657#discussion_r1745903955
Our August engineering blog post is out - read about the first beta of 4.3, what's coming next, and what the community has been sharing!

#TIL "Mark media as sensitive" (separate option from CW but actually does same thing) is removed from upcoming Mastodon v4.3's composer š¤ https://github.com/mastodon/mastodon/issues/29882
We are looking for feedback on our new grouped notifications API from Mastodon client developers.
All the details about this API are available at https://github.com/mastodon/mastodon/discussions/31618
We intend to mark this API as stable in our next 4.3 beta release, so if you are a client developer now is the time to have a look at it and tell us what you think!
Our September engineering blog post is out. Read about our recent releases, what we did last month, our progress on the Fediscovery project and what's coming next !

Will observe the other apps, when they'll update the copy for post visibility options.
- Unlisted ā Quiet Public
- Followers only ā Followers
- Mentioned people only ā Specific people
So far, I only see Mona using "Quiet Public" https://mastodon.social/@cheeaun/112071331585947439
Been fiddling with this (mock) for a while. Would this be easier to understand and make sense?
Context: this is for publishing posts.
#Smithereen 0.9 is out!
Photo albums are, of course, the headline feature of this release. In addition to that, there's the groups newsfeed and redesigned mobile profiles.
Also, Smithereen is now available on Docker Hub: https://hub.docker.com/r/grishkaa/smithereen
Scheduled posts API on Mastodon seems a bit rough.
1. Post payload is a bit different than published posts (ScheduledStatus https://docs.joinmastodon.org/entities/ScheduledStatus/#example vs Status https://docs.joinmastodon.org/entities/Status/#example)
2. There's API to reschedule & delete but no edit https://docs.joinmastodon.org/methods/scheduled_statuses/
Looking back at the initial PR (https://github.com/mastodon/mastodon/pull/9706): "The scheduled date must be at least 5 minutes into the future. At most, 300 toots can be scheduled at the same time. Only 50 toots can be scheduled for any given day."
Has anyone put together a curated list of #fediverse servers (preferably open source or at least with a public API) that:
- want to be found by the general public (Iām looking for a source of recommendations for a server picker in a client app)
- meet at least some reasonable minimum moderation/reliability standards?
I know #mastodon has joinmastodon.org/servers and pixelfed also has their own curated server list, but is there anything that isnāt software-specific?
#Pachli 2.10.1 has been released. This fixes the issue that could cause Pachli to crash if you had ever signed in with multiple accounts, ensures "Show anyway" works on filtered posts in all timelines, and shows all available languages in Android's system settings.
Thanks to @tinsuke, @Russssty, @kallekn, @alkaf, AindriĆŗ Mac Giolla Eoin, and @LukaszHorodecki.
