As I manage one Misskey instance named Slippy, I always check the commits between two versions before upgrading the server. So today I though, maybe it would be good if I write about them a bit, because I don’t really see any good English content with the changes.

I will always compare to the previous minor version. Maybe, I will give up and will not continue, because it’s a lot of work to check and translate all of them, but at least I tried.

Highlights:

  • Instance settings.
  • Federated instances widget with favicon.
  • Cat ears color match.
  • Security fix

What’s in v12.43.0?

  • There was a problem with Vote posts, when the deadline was at 1 minute, the visible counter was wrong and displayed it’s at 0 seconds. Issue PR
  • Security fix for SNYK-JS-AJV-584908. PR
  • In Deck view, in some cases, the title of the main column had overlapping text. Issue PR
  • Cat ears are important and with the new blurhash algorithm, coloring the cat ears has some problem. Now it’s fixed. Issue PR
  • Misskey will try to fetch Instance Favicon from federated servers. Issue PR
