Besides the usual amount of bugfixes Hubzilla 8.6 comes with a solution for two issues with interoperability between Hubzilla and other federated networks which do not support OpenWebAuth or comment permissions.
1. OCAP access
Grant limited posts the right to access linked private media via OCAP tokens. This solves the issue where private media was not accessible by platforms which do not implement OpenWebAuth.
2. Accept unsolicited comments for moderation
Unsolicited comments and reactions can arrive from platforms which do not implement comment permissions. Until now those were silently dropped. With this option enabled you will have the possibility to decide if you want to approve or delete such comments.
Those options are available in the channel privacy settings and are off by default. For more info about the changes in Hubzilla 8.6 please refer to the changelog.
A big THANK YOU! to all contributors and everybody who supports Hubzilla and its development.

Hubzilla 6.2 has been released after two months of development. The most noticeable change in this release is probably the work that has been done on the apps infrastructure. Featured (starred) and pinned apps in the app-bin and navigation bar can now easily be sorted via drag and drop. Additionally apps can now be moved to the navigation bar or app-bin by dragging the app icon from the installed apps overview to either the right side of the navigation bar (pin action) or directly onto the hamburger menu (star action). The overviews of the available and installed apps have been restructured and app descriptions implemented. For your convenience apps can now also be installed directly from the module that provides the app.
The work on the apps infrastructure has been sponsored by @NGI Zero open source funding. Thank you for that!
Other mentionable changes include:
- The custom highlight bbcode [hl] has been deprecated in favor of [mark] which is a HTML5 standard.
- The post_mail permission has been implemented to allow/deny direct messages from contacts
- The actor store and cache mechanism has been refactored
- Hubzilla now supports installation as a PWA (Progressive Web App) if this is supported by the browser
- Translation updates
- Bug fixes
Breaking changes:
- Hubzilla has been updated to Bootstrap 5. If you use a custom theme, please make sure to update the templates accordingly. See here for reference: #^https://getbootstrap.com/docs/5.0/migration
- The channel menu option for visitors has been removed in favor of an extended app-bin

I love FreeSoftware
I spend some time yesterday thinking about what was your most favourite FreeSoftware project of the last year? And I could not really find an answer to the question. Not because I don't know any projects I care about, but the most favourite is hard to grasp when one can use GNU/Linux for the last two decades almost exclusively ;-)
So instead I'd like to send some <3 to David Revoy http://www.davidrevoy.com/ who is the author of Pepper and Carrot http://www.peppercarrot.com/ a lovely free, libre and open-source webcomic which entertained me quite some times over the last year, reading and re-reading the episodes. The comic is drawn using https://krita.org/en/ and https://inkscape.org/ and the stack around them, so Kudos to these projects for making Pepper and Carrot possible :-)
Also I want to thank the people involved in all the cool projects that make the deventralised social network so wonderful diverse as it is. Thanks to all of you who contribute in so many ways to https://diasporafoundation.org/, http://friendica.com, GNU social https://gnu.io/social/, https://hubzilla.org, https://mastodon.social, postActive http://www.postactiv.com/, http://pump.io] and all those I've forgotten ;-)
