superseriousbusiness/gotosocial v0.19.0-rc2

on Codeberg

Hello dorks, here's the second release candidate for GoToSocial v0.19.0.

Please read the migration notes carefully for instructions on how to upgrade to this version.

For instructions to update to this release candidate from versions < v0.19.0-rc1, see the v0.19.0-rc1 release candidate notes, but replace v0.19.0-rc1 with v0.19.0-rc2 throughout.

Release highlights

Compared to rc1:

• Fixed a couple bugs.
• Frontend tweaks to hide "engagement" stats, edits, and other info under a little drop down to unclutter status info bar.
• Updated list of "ai" user-agents in robots.txt

Migration notes

Upgrading

To upgrade to v0.19.0-rc2 from a previous release:

Binary/tar

1. Stop GoToSocial.
2. Back up your database! If you're running on SQLite, this is as simple as copying your sqlite.db file, eg., cp sqlite.db sqlite.db.backup.
3. Download and untar the new release, including the web assets and html templates.
4. Edit your config.yaml file if necessary (see below).
5. Start GoToSocial.
6. Wait patiently for any migrations to run, do not interrupt migrations or you could leave your db in a broken state and will have to restore from backup!
7. Enjoy your updated instance.

Docker

1. Stop GoToSocial.
2. Back up your database! If you're running on SQLite, this is as simple as copying your sqlite.db file, eg., cp sqlite.db sqlite.db.backup.
3. Pull the new docker container (superseriousbusiness/gotosocial:0.19.0-rc2 or superseriousbusiness/gotosocial:latest)
4. Edit your config.yaml file or environment variables if necessary (see below).
5. Start GoToSocial.
6. Wait patiently for any migrations to run, do not interrupt migrations or you could leave your db in a broken state and will have to restore from backup!
7. Enjoy your updated instance.

config.yaml

No changes since v0.19.0-rc1.

Database Migrations

None since v0.19.0-rc1.

Which release archive/container should I use?

GoToSocial releases binary builds for 64-bit Linux, FreeBSD, and NetBSD operating systems. We also release Docker builds for 64-bit Linux.

nowasm

For your convenience, we also provide UNSUPPORTED, EXPERIMENTAL BUILDS, created using the nowasm tag, in the downloads list below. There is no Docker build for nowasm.

GoToSocial releases built with nowasm use the Go-native, modernc version of SQLite instead of the WASM one, and will use on-system ffmpeg and ffprobe binaries for media processing.

Using a nowasm build is currently the only way to run GoToSocial on a 32-bit system.

For more information on running a nowasm build, see the nowasm documentation page.
