Wohoohoo, Happy Birthday, Geraspora!

Das war jetzt dann doch etwas plötzlich. Wenn unsere Kalender nicht lügen, wird Geraspora heute 10 Jahre alt! O_o.

Natürlich könnte man jetzt hier nen Text schreiben, der erklärt, wie toll das Projekt ist und wie toll ihr alle seid (naja, okay, meistens zumindest). Aber nun ja, das wisst ihr ja eh. Stattdessen brauchen wir Eure Hilfe ...

Wir wollten ne kleine Geburtstagsparty schmeißen, aber uns sind die Luftballons weggeflogen... Wenn Ihr in der Desktop-Version von Geraspora (Mobil-Benutzerinnen wechseln am besten in die Desktop/Standard-Version über das Menü rechts!) auf das Luftballon-Icon in der Leiste oben klickt, könnt ihr uns helfen, die Ballons wieder einzufangen! Aber Vorsicht - ihr habt nur 10 Sekunden Zeit!

Die Person mit dem höchsten Score bekommt ... ... absolut garnichts!

Okay, kleines Spiel, das in zu wenig Zeit nach dem Feierabend entstanden ist (und vermutlich deshalb den ein oder anderen Bug hat) beiseite ... Danke für die letzten 10 Jahre!

diaspora* hotfix release 0.7.18.1

We just released diaspora* version 0.7.18.1 which fixes an issue when multiple bundler versions were available that results in diaspora* being unable to start.

Updating

Podmins who already run 0.7.18.0 without issues don't need to update (but feel free to do anyway). For podmins still on older version, it fixes some possible issues when updating. Update instructions are available as usual in the wiki.

If you are a user not running your own pod, there is nothing you need to do!

Tonight, starting at around 8pm UTC, we'll be doing some maintenance on server components that are responsible for delivering images to you. If there are some issues with media from remote pods, please bear with us!

diaspora* version 0.7.18.0 released!

As announced, a new minor release is now released. Over the past three months, we have managed to collect 113 commits made by 3 contributors for this minor release.

A huge thanks to all the contributors from diaspora*'s amazing community! If you want to help make diaspora* even better, please check out our getting started guide. Please see the changelog for a complete list of changes made in this release.

Notable Changes

  • We updated the recommended Ruby version to 2.7. If you followed our installation guides, run rvm install 2.7 to install it!
  • We updated to bundler 2 and rails 6.1.
  • Switched to sassc-rails which makes assets:precompile a lot faster.
  • HTML notification emails now contain the correctly formatted posts and comments.

Updating

For podmins, update instructions are available as usual in the wiki. For those of you who have been testing the release candidate, run git checkout master before the update to get back to the stable release branch.

diaspora* 0.7.18.0 freeze

We froze diaspora* minor release 0.7.18.0. Please check the Changelog for more information on changes included in this release.

If you are running your own pod, please help us test the RC before the minor gets released next Sunday. To get the code, run git pull; git checkout next-minor on your development pod. Please be aware that this is a release candidate and, although we did careful testing, bugs may occur. You can follow the usual update instructions to get your testing system updated, with a few minor differences:

  • We updated the recommended ruby version to 2.7, if you installed diaspora using our guide, then you can install that using rvm install 2.7 instead of rvm install 2.6.
  • We updated to bundler 2, so please use gem install bundler:2.1.4 instead of gem install bundler:1.17.3

The update guide will be updated when 0.7.18.0 is officially released.
