Feditext beta users: version 1.7.2 (build 139) adds persistent display filters for home/local/federated timelines (upper right corner button). when you hide boosts or replies, they will now stay hidden when you navigate to other timelines or relaunch the app. it also fixes the accessibility label for the filter button.
in other news, our lead dev Vyr is looking for a new, less stressful day job. please wish her well.
Feditext beta users: version 1.7.2 build 137, now on TestFlight, fixes the crash on iPads running iPadOS 18 that made most iPad Feditext users, well, unable to use Feditext.
Feditext beta users: today's version 1.7.2 build 126 now supports editing posts on GotoSocial 0.18 (already supported for most other Fedi servers).
since GtS 0.18 is still in development, this release is recommended for advanced GtS users only: you need to explicitly set a version like 0.18.0-dev while building GtS for Feditext to detect and enable 0.18 features.
users of current GtS or other servers don't need to update to today's Feditext release.
I guess I have #testflight notifications turned off, just noticed there are new #feditext updates!
Feditext beta users: yesterday's version 1.7.2 build 129 includes fixes to our Spanish translation (contributed by <https://wetdry.world/@nelson>) and our Polish translation (contributed by <https://github.com/matpl11>).
Feditext beta users: today's version 1.7.2 build 130 adds support for push notifications from GoToSocial instances.
you will need to be running a development version of GTS 0.18 with this patch applied <https://github.com/superseriousbusiness/gotosocial/pull/3762>, or wait for the *next* release candidate (0.18.0rc1 doesn't have it) or the 0.18.0 release proper.
users of other instance servers don't need to update.
Feditext beta users: version 1.7.2 (build 140) fixes a JSON decoding issue with Mastodon 4.4 / 4.5 instances that caused error messages when quoted posts are viewed or on a timeline.
this doesn't change how Feditext displays quotes; as with other instance types that already support quote posts, Mastodon quoted posts will be displayed as special links. tapping them will display the whole post. full quote post support is pending.
