Hey, y'all :)
We're now in 3.2.0 :)
It has lots of stuff, but my favorites are:
- Toot visibility is now visible on the timeline
- You can now add personal notes to accounts (only visible for you)
- New audio player design
- Select an emoji with ctrl to keep the picker open
The complete notes can be seen here: https://github.com/tootsuite/mastodon/releases/tag/v3.2.0
I'm still regenerating the search, so no text search for now.

Hey folks!
I'm silencing mastodon.cloud because of issues with lack of moderation [1].
I will ban then in a week, if you still follow folks over there, you have this time to try to figure out a solution without loosing their posts.

Hey, y'all!
Due to paper that surfaced this weekend [1] which scraped posts from several instances without authorization, I'm enabling mastodon's "secure mode" which tries to add an extra layer of security for requests.
It might make servers pre-3.0 have troubles communicating with lewd.town.
If you have any troubles, let me know :)
