Socialhome v0.23.0 released
Work continues towards a full replacement of the UI layer! @{alain@jase.social} has been hard at work again, working on both the UI layer, but also the backend and the federation library. Massive kudos
This is the last release where it will be possible to use the old UI. The next release is expected to completely remove the old UI, which will be a much welcome clean-up of the code base.
When updating, please note the instructions for running Socialhome with the new UI. The old setting to enable the new UI is gone, instead you will need to route to it using your reverse proxy. In the next release this will become mandatory as the old UI will disappear from the Socialhome backend container.
While things are in flux, unfortunately there aren't very good example ways to run the Socialhome backend and the new frontend. We're hoping to improve on this with the next release, when the old UI will be fully removed. Please pop in our chat room if you have issues attempting to run Socialhome.
Please note due to build issues with the old UI, arm images are not available for this release. If you need them, please ask in the chat room and we will figure something out.
This is not all! The release of v0.23.0 also contains a bunch of other changes and fixes. See the full changelog. Additionally, the federation library has received a ton of changes and fixes which can be found here.
Installing and updating
We recommend using the Docker images.
Notes on how to use the Docker images can be found in the docs.
What is Socialhome?
Socialhome is best described as a federated personal profile with social networking functionality. Users can create rich content using Markdown. All content can be pinned to the user profile and all content will federate to contacts in the federated social web. Federation happens using the ActivityPub and Diaspora protocols.
Please check the official site for more information about features. Naturally, the official site is a Socialhome profile itself.
Try Socialhome?
If you want to try Socialhome first before trying to install it, register at https://socialhome.network and then ping us with a comment on the user name chosen to get the account approved. You can also request account approval in the chat room. This unfortunately approval step is due to spammers.
