Catodon 26.9.0 stable released!
Catodon 26.9.0 - what’s new
Multi-server accounts - you can now sign in or sign up on any other Misskey- or Mastodon-API server, not just this one. Works with Pixelfed GoToSocial, Akkoma, and the Misskey family too.
Customizable timelines - pick what fills your Home slot and arrange up to 9 tabs from Following, your other accounts, forums, RSS, antennas, lists, and more. Syncs across devices.
New media timeline with a masonry layout.
Quote posts that are compatible with Mastodon’s implementation, federated via FEP-044f.
Hashtag following - follow tags natively, federated, with a hover preview and Custom feed support.
PeerTube video streaming - remote PeerTube videos now stream over HLS instead of just linking out.
Blogs got content warnings and per-blog privacy settings, plus a raw HTML mode in the editor.
Right-to-left language support - the whole UI now mirrors properly for RTL languages.
ALTCHA added as the default self-hosted, privacy-friendly captcha option.
A big security pass: closed several SSRF holes (URL previews, RSS fetching, JSON-LD verification), fixed a password-reset bug that let a moderator reset another admin’s password, tightened 2FA/TOTP replay protection, patched a few data-visibility leaks, and pulled in ~90 hardening fixes adapted from upstream Sharkey. Nothing here was known to be actively exploited, but if you’re running your own instance, update promptly.
Plus a long tail of smaller fixes: broken federation edge cases (forums, blog permalinks, PeerTube lookups), a mention-notification race, sharper remote media, and assorted UI polish.
