* Stop setting a shortcode to newly-created media attachments
The WebUI has stopped using the “short media URL” in ages. This isn't used
anywhere except for mail notifications.
Deprecating it would allow us to eventually get rid of at least a database
column and corruption-prone index, as well as a controller.
* Fix tests
Conflicts:
- `app/serializers/rest/instance_serializer.rb`:
Upstream changed the fields returned by /api/v1/instance by adding a
`configuration` field holding a lot of useful information making our
`max_toot_chars` and `poll_limits` fields obsolete.
Keeping those around for now for compatibility.
- `app/validators/status_length_validator.rb`:
No real conflict, just URL_PLACEHOLDER_CHARS introduced too close to
MAX_CHARS which is defined differently in glitch-soc.
Ported upstream changes.
- `app/views/statuses/_simple_status.html.haml`:
Small markup change in glitch-soc, on a line that has been modified by
upstream. Ported upstream changes.
Conflicts:
- `README.md`:
Upstream updated copyright year, we don't mention it so kept our version.
- `app/controllers/admin/dashboard_controller.rb`:
Not really a conflict, upstream change (removing the spam checker) too close

extra headers in glitch-soc.
Added the header.
Conflicts:
- `config/webpack/configuration.js`:
Upstream updated the `js-yaml` dependency, which changed how to call it.
Those changes conflicted because that code is pretty different in glitch-soc
which has to deal with its more complex theming system.
Proceeded to the same compatibility changes in glitch-soc's code.
- `package.json` and `yarn.lock`:
Not really a conflict, just glitch-soc-specific dependencies textually too
close to some dependencies updated upstream.

Conflicts:
- `app/controllers/activitypub/collections_controller.rb`:
Conflict due to glitch-soc having to take care of local-only
pinned toots in that controller.
Took upstream's changes and restored the local-only special
handling.
- `app/controllers/auth/sessions_controller.rb`:
Minor conflicts due to the theming system, applied upstream
changes, adapted the following two files for glitch-soc's
theming system:
- `app/controllers/concerns/sign_in_token_authentication_concern.rb`
- `app/controllers/concerns/two_factor_authentication_concern.rb`

Minor conflict due to glitch-soc having to handle local-only
toots specially. Applied upstream changes and restored
the local-only special handling.

Not a real conflict, but glitch-soc has an extra line to deal
with its theming system.
Ported upstream changes.
- `app/javascript/packs/public.js`:
Upstream made changes to get rid of most inline CSS, this changes
javascript for public pages, which in glitch are split between
different files. Ported those changes.
- `app/models/status.rb`:
Upstream changed the block check in `Status#permitted_for` to
include domain-block checks. Not a real conflict with glitch-soc,
but our scope is slightly different, as our scope for
unauthenticated access do not include instance-local toots.
Ported upstream changes.
- `app/serializers/rest/instance_serializer.rb`:
Not a real conflict, upstream added a new field to the instance
serializer, the conflict is one line above since we added more of
that.
Ported upstream changes.
- `app/views/settings/profiles/show.html.haml`:
Upstream got rid of most inline CSS and moved hidden elements
to data attributes in the process, in fields were we have
different values.
Ported upstream changes while keeping our glitch-specific
values.
- `app/views/statuses/_simple_status.html.haml`:
Upstream got rid of inline CSS on an HAML line we treat
differently, stripping empty text nodes.
Ported upstream changes to the style attribute, keeping
the empty text node stripping behavior.
Conflicts:
- `README.md`:
Our README.md files are completely different. Discarded upstream changes.
- `app/javascript/core/admin.js`:
Updating rails-ujs, no real conflict, but a comment to close to changed
code. Various glitch-soc-only files have been updated to match those changes,
though.
- `package.json`:
No real conflict, just an additional dependency in glitch-soc that was too
close to something updated upstream. Took upstream's changes.
Conflicts:
- `app/controllers/api/v1/statuses_controller.rb`:
Conflict due to upstream adding a new parameter (with_rate_limit),
too close to glitch-soc's own additional parameter (content_type).
Added upstream's parameter.
- `app/services/post_status_service.rb`:
Conflict due to upstream adding a new parameter (rate_limit),
too close to glitch-soc's own additional parameter (content_type).
Added upstream's parameter.

Conflict due to us not exposing theme settings here (as we have
a different flavour/skin menu).
Took upstream change, while still not exposing theme settings.

control rules between direct and limited statuses is almost the same,
except for counter and conversation logic
* Ensure silent column is non-null, add spec
* Ensure filters don't check silent mentions for blocks/mutes
As those are "this person is also allowed to see" rather than "this
person is involved", therefore does not warrant filtering

This means the two filter systems (glitch-soc's keyword mutes and tootsuite's
custom filters) are in place, which will be changed in a follow-up commit.
* Add keyword filtering
GET|POST /api/v1/filters
GET|PUT|DELETE /api/v1/filters/:id
- Irreversible filters can drop toots from home or notifications
- Other filters can hide toots through the client app
- Filters use a phrase valid in particular contexts, expiration
* Make sure expired filters don't get applied client-side
* Add missing API methods
* Remove "regex filter" from column settings
* Add tests
* Add test for FeedManager
* Add CustomFilter test
* Add UI for managing filters
* Add streaming API event to allow syncing filters
* Fix tests
* Track trending tags
- Half-life of 1 day
- Historical usage in daily buckets (last 7 days stored)
- GET /api/v1/trends
Fix#271
* Add trends to web UI
* Don't render compose form on search route, adjust search results header
* Disqualify tag from trends if it's in disallowed hashtags setting
* Count distinct accounts using tag, ignore silenced accounts
- POST /api/v1/push/subscription
- PUT /api/v1/push/subscription
- DELETE /api/v1/push/subscription
- New OAuth scope: "push" (required for the above methods)
* Add bio fields
- Fix#3211
- Fix#232
- Fix#121
* Display bio fields in web UI
* Fix output of links and missing fields
* Federate bio fields over ActivityPub as PropertyValue
* Improve how the fields are stored, add to Edit profile form
* Add rel=me to links in fields
Fix#121
Up until now, the order seemed to be in the *opposite* order,
which caused the WebUI to populate mentions in reversed order
when replying to toots local to one's instance.
* Break out nested relationship API keys
This closes#5856 by restoring the existing behavior of the `muting`
and `following` keys (returning booleans rather than truthy or false).
It adds `showing_reblogs` and `muting_notifications` keys:
* `showing_reblogs` returns true if:
1. You've requested to follow the user, with reblogs shown, or
2. You are following the user, with reblogs shown.
* `muting_notifications` returns true if you have muted the user and
their notifications as well.
* Rubocop fix
* Fix pulling reblog/mute status from relationships
I could swear this had passed tests before, but apparently not.
Works now.
* More test fixes
Really, you'd expect this to be more straightforward.
* Serialize moved accounts into REST and ActivityPub APIs
* Parse federated moved accounts from ActivityPub
* Add note about moved accounts to public profiles
* Add moved account message to web UI
* Fix code style issues
* Add structure for lists
* Add list timeline streaming API
* Add list APIs, bind list-account relation to follow relation
* Add API for adding/removing accounts from lists
* Add pagination to lists API
* Add pagination to list accounts API
* Adjust scopes for new APIs
- Creating and modifying lists merely requires "write" scope
- Fetching information about lists merely requires "read" scope
* Add test for wrong user context on list timeline
* Clean up tests
* Fix#117 - Add ability to specify alternative text for media attachments
- POST /api/v1/media accepts `description` straight away
- PUT /api/v1/media/:id to update `description` (only for unattached ones)
- Serialized as `name` of Document object in ActivityPub
- Uploads form adjusted for better performance and description input
* Add tests
* Change undo button blend mode to difference
* Fix JavaScript interface with long IDs
Somewhat predictably, the JS interface handled IDs as numbers, which in
JS are IEEE double-precision floats. This loses some precision when
working with numbers as large as those generated by the new ID scheme,
so we instead handle them here as strings. This is relatively simple,
and doesn't appear to have caused any problems, but should definitely
be tested more thoroughly than the built-in tests. Several days of use
appear to support this working properly.
BREAKING CHANGE:
The major(!) change here is that IDs are now returned as strings by the
REST endpoints, rather than as integers. In practice, relatively few
changes were required to make the existing JS UI work with this change,
but it will likely hit API clients pretty hard: it's an entirely
different type to consume. (The one API client I tested, Tusky, handles
this with no problems, however.)
Twitter ran into this issue when introducing Snowflake IDs, and decided
to instead introduce an `id_str` field in JSON responses. I have opted
to *not* do that, and instead force all IDs to 64-bit integers
represented by strings in one go. (I believe Twitter exacerbated their
problem by rolling out the changes three times: once for statuses, once
for DMs, and once for user IDs, as well as by leaving an integer ID
value in JSON. As they said, "If you’re using the `id` field with JSON
in a Javascript-related language, there is a very high likelihood that
the integers will be silently munged by Javascript interpreters. In most
cases, this will result in behavior such as being unable to load or
delete a specific direct message, because the ID you're sending to the
API is different than the actual identifier associated with the
message." [1]) However, given that this is a significant change for API
users, alternatives or a transition time may be appropriate.

* Additional fixes for stringified IDs in JSON
These should be the last two. These were identified using eslint to try
to identify any plain casts to JavaScript numbers. (Some such casts are
legitimate, but these were not.)
Adding the following to .eslintrc.yml will identify casts to numbers:
~~~
no-restricted-syntax:
- warn
- selector: UnaryExpression[operator='+'] > :not(Literal)
message: Avoid the use of unary +
- selector: CallExpression[callee.name='Number']
message: Casting with Number() may coerce string IDs to numbers
~~~
