Big deals, omg

Mods can move a post, with replies and votes, to another community. The change federates to other instances (except Lemmy, for now. I've been in discussion with devs from NodeBB and Lemmy about how this will work, they are on board). Relevant FEP.
Upload video files while creating a video post - no external host needed. Admin setting to limit who can do this (to save space).
Realtime chat - conversation immediately updates on screen when a new PM arrives.

More good stuff

Author-deleted posts are still visible to them and anyone with the url. No more loss of high-value comments with the OP deletes.
Search filters - nsfw and minimum post score
Improve speed of cross-posting form on mobile
Emoji tokens like :blush: can be used in post or comment body. No GUI support yet.
Admin setting to disable local copies of remote images - good for single-user instances
Replying to a comment marks associated inbox item as read
Updated HPT-Fruits theme
196 no longer excluded from default community import
Remove unused community rating feature
Remove unused instance vote weight feature
Remove ineffective þ to 'th' replacement
Improved accessibility - better contrast, fixed many incorrectly-used aria-labels
Updated translations - Basque, Chinese, Japanese

API:

Admins can ban/unban users through the API. piefed.world was maintaining custom code for this, hopefully it'll make their version upgrades faster.

Bugs fixed

PMs
Markdown parsing
Speed up loading of profile pages for admin users
Friendica post parsing
Passkeys login UX tweak

@rimu@piefed.social is there any documentation about the move post feature? It has existed in the mod panel on mbin for as long as it exists, but it does not federate and it would be great if we could implement it in a way that is working piefed, lemmy and nodebb

I just did a quick test-move and here is the json that was federated out:

{  
  "actor": "https://crust.piefed.social/u/wjs018",  
  "cc": [  
    "https://piefed.wjs018.xyz/c/testing"  
  ],  
  "id": "https://crust.piefed.social/activities/move/l7NaOQha12PQyYv",  
  "object": "https://crust.piefed.social/c/testing/p/108274/this-post-will-be-moved",  
  "origin": "https://piefed.wjs018.xyz/c/testing",  
  "target": "https://crust.piefed.social/c/test",  
  "to": [  
    "https://www.w3.org/ns/activitystreams#Public"  
  ],  
  "type": "Move"  
}

For context, this was moved from !testing@piefed.wjs018.xyz to !test@crust.piefed.social. The author, @wjs018@crust.piefed.social, is a moderator of the community that the post was initially posted to. I did find a bug in this process, the post flair, which should be community-specific, was moved as well when it should have been stripped. So, I created an issue for tracking that fix.

thanks for the quick response. I added it to our issue tracking the federation of mod actions (mbinOrg/mbin/#248)

Great!

[–] BentiGorlich@gehirneimer.de 3 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

This is awesome, thanks

@bentigorlich@gehirneimer.de I've been tagging you and @melroy@kbin.melroy.org about this but maybe there's a federation issue? Hopefully not.

Anyway the FEP is there, and I'd love to loop you two in to the discussions.
