  • Fix issue in discussions search (which wasn't working after a search with no results was made);

• Threads List being requested more than expected (#22879)

• User is still asked for 2FA confirmation even if it is deactivated (#22801)

• users registered via third party apps bypass custom required fields (#22396)

  moves the custom fields from the initial registration form to the "pick a username" screen so that everyone is forced to fill the custom required fields
