Engineering updates from the Mastodon team for September 2024. Behind-the-scenes of the 4.3 release.

Mastodon 4.3 was shipped today 🎉 I am working on a Trunk & Tidbits post covering last month’s engineering efforts (to post later in the week), and also a post about key changes for developers in 4.3 (likely to be published next week).

What are your plans for next weekend? Here’s an idea: you could join us at the UK’s free culture and open source celebration and unconference, in Manchester. It is going to be great! #OggCamp2024

OggCamp is a free software & free culture un- conference.

We will have a tech and sticker swap table at #OggCamp - take a read for what it is all about, what to bring/not bring, and remember that unclaimed items must be taken home by the attendees bringing them.
