0.21 "Agate" (2020-04-24)
-------------------------
This 0.21 release is dedicated to Agate, to thank her, for both having created the Funkwhale project, being the current lead developer, and for her courage of coming out. Thank you Agate from all the members of the Funkwhale community <3
We are truly grateful as well to the dozens of people who contributed to this release with translations, development, documentation, reviews, design, testing, feedback, financial support, third-party projects and integrations… You made it possible!
Upgrade instructions are available at
https://docs.funkwhale.audio/admin/upgrading.html, there are also additional operations you need to execute, listed in the changelog below (search "Manual action").
Channels and podcasts
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Funkwhale 0.21 includes a brand new feature: Channels!
Channels can be used as a replacement to public libraries,
to publish audio content, both musical and non-musical. They federate with other Funkwhale pods, but also other
fediverse software, in particular Mastodon, Pleroma, Friendica and Reel2Bits, meaning people can subscribe to your channel
from any of these software. To get started with publication, simply visit your profile and create a channel from there.
Each Funkwhale channel also comes with RSS feed that is compatible with existing podcasting applications, like AntennaPod
on Android and, within Funkwhale, you can also subscribe to any podcast from its RSS feed!
Many, many thanks to the numerous people who helped with the feature design, development and testing, and in particular
to the members of the working group who met every week for months in order to get this done, and the members of other third-party
projects who took the time to work with us to ensure compatibility.
Redesigned navigation, player and queue
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
This release includes a full redesign of our navigation, player and queue. Overall, it should provide
a better, less confusing experience, especially on mobile devices. This redesign was suggested
14 months ago, and took a while, but thanks to the involvement and feedback of many people, we got it done!
Improved search bar for searching remote objects
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
The search bar now support fetching arbitrary objects using a URL. In particular, you can use this to quickly:
- Subscribe to a remote library via its URL
- Listen a public track from another pod
- Subscribe to a channel
Screening for sign-ups and custom sign-up form
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Instance admins can now configure their pod so that registrations required manual approval from a moderator. This
is especially useful on private or semi-private pods where you don't want to close registrations completely,
but don't want spam or unwanted users to join your pod.
When this is enabled and a new user register, their request is put in a moderation queue, and moderators
are notified by email. When the request is approved or refused, the user is also notified by email.
In addition, it's also possible to customize the sign-up form by:
- Providing a custom help text, in markdown format
- Including additional fields in the form, for instance to ask the user why they want to join. Data collected through these fields is included in the sign-up request and viewable by the mods
Federated reports
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
It's now possible to send a copy of a report to the server hosting the reported object, in order to make moderation easier and more distributed.
This feature is inspired by Mastodon's current design, and should work with at least Funkwhale and Mastodon servers.
Improved search performance
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Our search engine went through a full rewrite to make it faster. This new engine is enabled
by default when using the search bar, or when searching for artists, albums and tracks. It leverages
PostgreSQL full-text search capabilities.
During our tests, we observed huge performance improvements after the switch, by an order of
magnitude. This should be especially perceptible on pods with large databases, more modest hardware
or hard drives.
We plan to remove the old engine in an upcoming release. In the meantime, if anything goes wrong,
you can switch back by setting ``USE_FULL_TEXT_SEARCH=false`` in your ``.env`` file.
Enforced email verification
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
The brand new ``ACCOUNT_EMAIL_VERIFICATION_ENFORCE`` setting can be used to make email verification
mandatory for your users. It defaults to ``false``, and doesn't apply to superuser accounts created through
the CLI.
If you enable this, ensure you have a SMTP server configured too.
More reliable CLI importer [manual action required]
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Our CLI importer is now more reliable and less prone to Out-of-Memory issues, especially when scanning large libraries. (hundreds of GB or bigger)
We've also improved the directory crawling logic, so that you don't have to use glob patterns or specify extensions when importing. As a result, the syntax for providing directories to the command as changed slightly.
If you use the ``import_files`` command, this means you should replace scripts that look like this::
python api/manage.py import_files $LIBRARY_ID "/srv/funkwhale/data/music/**/*.ogg" "/srv/funkwhale/data/music/**/*.mp3" --recursive --noinput
By this::
python api/manage.py import_files $LIBRARY_ID "/srv/funkwhale/data/music/" --recursive --noinput
And Funkwhale will happily import any supported audio file from the specified directory.
User management through the server CLI
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
We now support user creation (incl. non-admin accounts), update and removal directly
from the server CLI. Typical use cases include:
- Changing a user password from the command line
- Creating or updating users from deployments scripts or playbooks
- Removing or granting permissions or upload quota to multiple users at once
- Marking multiple users as inactive
All user-related commands are available under the ``python manage.py fw users`` namespace.
Please refer to the `Admin documentation <https://docs.funkwhale.audio/admin/commands.html#user-management>`_ for
more information and instructions.
Progressive web app [Manual action suggested, non-docker only]
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
We've made Funkwhale's Web UI a Progressive Web Application (PWA), in order to improve the user experience
during offline use, and on mobile devices.
In order to fully benefit from this change, if your pod isn't deployed using Docker, ensure
the following instruction is present in your nginx configuration::
location /front/ {
# Add the following line in the /front/ location
add_header Service-Worker-Allowed "/";
}
Postgres docker changed environment variable [manual action required, docker multi-container only]
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
If you're running with docker and our multi-container setup, there was a breaking change starting in the 11.7 postgres image (https://github.com/docker-library/postgres/pull/658)
You need to add this to your .env file: ``POSTGRES_HOST_AUTH_METHOD=trust``
Newer deployments aren't affected.
Upgrade from Postgres 10 to 11 [manual action required, docker all-in-one only]
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
With our upgrade to Alpine 3.10, the ``funkwhale/all-in-one`` image now includes PostgreSQL 11.
In order to update to Funkwhale 0.21, you will first need to uprade Funkwhale's PostgreSQL database, following the steps below::
# open a shell as the Funkwhale user
sudo -u funkwhale -H bash
# move to the funkwhale data directory
# (replace this with your own if you used a different path)
cd /srv/funkwhale/data
# stop the funkwhale container
docker stop funkwhale
# backup the database files
cp -r data/ ../postgres.bak
# Upgrade the database
docker run --rm \
-v $(pwd)/data:/var/lib/postgresql/10/data \
-v $(pwd)/upgraded-postgresql:/var/lib/postgresql/11/data \
-e PGUSER=funkwhale \
-e POSTGRES_INITDB_ARGS="-U funkwhale --locale C --encoding UTF8" \
tianon/postgres-upgrade:10-to-11
# replace the Postgres 10 files with Postgres 11 files
mv data/ postgres-10
mv upgraded-postgresql/ data
Once you have completed the Funkwhale upgrade with our regular instructions and everything works properly,
you can remove the backups/old files::

0.20.1 (2019-10-28)
-------------------
Upgrade instructions are available at
https://docs.funkwhale.audio/index.html
Denormalized audio permission logic in a separate table to enhance performance
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
With this release, we're introducing a performance enhancement that should reduce the load on the database and API
servers (cf https://dev.funkwhale.audio/funkwhale/funkwhale/merge_requests/939).
Under the hood, we now maintain a separate table to link users to the tracks they are allowed to see. This change is **disabled**
by default, but should be enabled by default starting in Funkwhale 0.21.
If you want to try it now, add
``MUSIC_USE_DENORMALIZATION=True`` to your ``.env`` file, restart Funkwhale, and run the following command::
python manage.py rebuild_music_permissions
This shouldn't cause any regression, but we'd appreciate if you could test this before the 0.21 release and report any unusual
behaviour regarding tracks, albums and artists visibility.
Enhancements:
- Added a retry option for failed uploads (#942)
- Added feedback via loading spinner when searching a remote library
- Denormalized audio permission logic in a separate table to enhance performance
- Placeholders will now be shown if no content is available across the application (#750)
- Reduce the number of simultaneous DB connections under some deployment scenario
- Support byYear filtering in Subsonic API (#936)
Bugfixes:
- Ensure password input doesn't overflow outside of container (#933)
- Fix audio serving issues under S3/nginx when signatures are enabled
- Fix import crash when importing M4A file with no embedded cover (#946)
- Fix tag exclusion in custom radios (#950)
- Fixed an issue with embed player CSS being purged during build (#935)
- Fixed escaped pod name displayed on home/about page (#945)
- Fixed pagination in subsonic getSongsByGenre endpoint (#954)
- Fixed style glitches in dropdowns
Documentation:
- Documented how to create DB extension by hand in case of permission error during migrations (#934)

0.20 (2019-10-04)
-----------------
Upgrade instructions are available at
https://docs.funkwhale.audio/index.html
Support for genres via tags
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
One of our most requested missing features is now available!
Starting with Funkwhale 0.20,
Funkwhale will automatically extract genre information from uploaded files and associate it
with the corresponding tracks in the form of tags (similar to Mastodon or Twitter hashtags).
Please refer to `our tagging documentation <https://docs.funkwhale.audio/users/upload.html#tagging-files>`_
for more information regarding the tagging process.
Tags can also be associated with artists and albums, and updated after upload through the UI using
the edit system released in Funkwhale 0.19. Tags are also fetched when retrieving content
via federation.
Tags are used in various places to enhance user experience:
- Tags are listed on tracks, albums and artist profiles
- Each tag has a dedicated page were you can browse corresponding content and quickly start a radio
- The custom radio builder now supports using tags
- Subsonic apps that support genres - such as DSub or Ultrasonic - should display this information as well
If you are a pod admin and want to extract tags from already uploaded content, you run `this snippet <https://dev.funkwhale.audio/funkwhale/funkwhale/snippets/43>`_
and `this snippet <https://dev.funkwhale.audio/funkwhale/funkwhale/snippets/44>`_ in a ``python manage.py shell``.
Content and account reports
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
It is now possible to report content, such as artists, tracks or libraries, as well as user accounts. Such reports are forwarded to the pod moderators,
who can review it and delete reported content, block accounts or take any other action they deem necessary.
By default, both anonymous and authenticated users can submit these reports. This makes sure moderators can receive and handle
takedown requests and other reports for illegal content that may be sent by third-parties without an account on the pod. However,
you can disable anonymous reports completely via your pod settings.
Federation of the reports will be supported in a future release.
For more information about this feature, please check out our documentation:
- `User documentation <https://docs.funkwhale.audio/moderator/reports.html>`_
- `Moderator documentation <https://docs.funkwhale.audio/users/reports.html>`_
Account deletion
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Users can now delete their account themselves, without involving an administrator.
The deletion process will remove any local data and objects associated with the account,
but the username won't be able to new users to avoid impersonation. Deletion is also broadcasted
to other known servers on the federation.
For more information about this feature, please check out our documentation:
- `User documentation <https://docs.funkwhale.audio/users/account.html>`_
Landing and about page redesign [Manual action suggested]
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
In this release, we've completely redesigned the landing and about page, by making it more useful and adapted to your pod
configuration. Among other things, the landing page will now include:
- your pod and an excerpt from your pod's description
- your pod banner image, if any
- your contact email, if any
- the login form
- the signup form (if registrations are open on your pod)
- some basic statistics about your pod
- a widget including recently uploaded albums, if anonymous access is enabled
The landing page will still include some information about Funkwhale, but in a less intrusive and proeminent way than before.
Additionally, the about page now includes:
- your pod name, description, rules and terms
- your pod banner image, if any
- your contact email, if any
- comprehensive statistics about your pod
- some info about your pod configuration, such as registration and federation status or the default upload quota for new users
With this redesign, we've added a handful of additional pod settings:
- Pod banner image
- Contact email
- Rules
- Terms of service
We recommend taking a few moments to fill these accordingly to your needs, by visiting ``/manage/settings``.
Allow-list to restrict federation to trusted domains
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
The Allow-Listing feature grants pod moderators
and administrators greater control over federation
by allowing you to create a pod-wide allow-list.
When allow-listing is enabled, your pod's users will only
be able to interact with pods included in the allow-list.
Any messages, activity, uploads, or modifications to
libraries and playlists will only be shared with pods
on the allow-list. Pods which are not included in the
allow-list will not have access to your pod's content
or messages and will not be able to send anything to
your pod.
If you want to enable this feature on your pod, or learn more, please refer to `our documentation <https://docs.funkwhale.audio/moderator/listing.html>`_!
Periodic message to incite people to support their pod and Funkwhale
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Users will now be reminded on a regular basis that they can help Funkwhale by donating or contributing.
If specified by the pod admin, a separate and custom message will also be displayed in a similar way to provide instructions and links to support the pod.
Both messages will appear for the first time 15 days after signup, in the notifications tab. For each message, users can schedule a reminder for a later time, or disable the messages entirely.
Replaced Daphne by Gunicorn/Uvicorn [manual action required, non-docker only]
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
To improve the performance, stability and reliability of Funkwhale's web processes,
we now recommend using Gunicorn and Uvicorn instead of Daphne. This combination unlock new use cases such as:
- zero-downtime upgrades
- configurable number of web worker processes
Based on our benchmarks, Gunicorn/Unicorn is also faster and more stable under higher workloads compared to Daphne.
To benefit from this enhancement on existing instances, you need to add ``FUNKWHALE_WEB_WORKERS=1`` in your ``.env`` file
(use a higher number if you want to have more web worker processes).
Then, edit your ``/etc/systemd/system/funkwhale-server.service`` and replace the ``ExecStart=`` line with
``ExecStart=/srv/funkwhale/virtualenv/bin/gunicorn config.asgi:application -w ${FUNKWHALE_WEB_WORKERS} -k uvicorn.workers.UvicornWorker -b ${FUNKWHALE_API_IP}:${FUNKWHALE_API_PORT}``
Then reload the configuration change with ``sudo systemctl daemon-reload`` and ``sudo systemctl restart funkwhale-server``.
Content-Security-Policy and additional security headers [manual action suggested]
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
To improve the security and reduce the attack surface in case of a successfull exploit, we suggest
you add the following Content-Security-Policy to your nginx configuration.
..note::
If you are using an S3-compatible store to serve music, you will need to specify the URL of your S3 store in the ``media-src`` and ``img-src`` headers
.. code-block::
add_header Content-Security-Policy "...img-src 'self' https://<your-s3-URL> data:;...media-src https://<your-s3-URL> 'self' data:";
**On non-docker setups**, in ``/etc/nginx/sites-available/funkwhale.conf``::
server {
add_header Content-Security-Policy "default-src 'self'; script-src 'self'; style-src 'self' 'unsafe-inline'; img-src 'self' data:; font-src 'self' data:; object-src 'none'; media-src 'self' data:";
add_header Referrer-Policy "strict-origin-when-cross-origin";
location /front/ {
add_header Content-Security-Policy "default-src 'self'; script-src 'self'; style-src 'self' 'unsafe-inline'; img-src 'self' data:; font-src 'self' data:; object-src 'none'; media-src 'self' data:";
add_header Referrer-Policy "strict-origin-when-cross-origin";
add_header X-Frame-Options "SAMEORIGIN";
# … existing content here
}
# Also create a new location for the embeds to ensure external iframes work
# Simply copy-paste the /front/ location, but replace the following lines:
location /front/embed.html {
add_header X-Frame-Options "ALLOW";
alias ${FUNKWHALE_FRONTEND_PATH}/embed.html;
}
}
Then reload nginx with ``systemctl reload nginx``.
**On docker setups**, in ``/srv/funkwhalenginx/funkwhale.template``::
server {
add_header Content-Security-Policy "default-src 'self'; script-src 'self'; style-src 'self' 'unsafe-inline'; img-src 'self' data:; font-src 'self' data:; object-src 'none'; media-src 'self' data:";
add_header Referrer-Policy "strict-origin-when-cross-origin";
location /front/ {
add_header Content-Security-Policy "default-src 'self'; script-src 'self'; style-src 'self' 'unsafe-inline'; img-src 'self' data:; font-src 'self' data:; object-src 'none'; media-src 'self' data:";
add_header Referrer-Policy "strict-origin-when-cross-origin";
add_header X-Frame-Options "SAMEORIGIN";
# … existing content here
}
# Also create a new location for the embeds to ensure external iframes work
# Simply copy-paste the /front/ location, but replace the following lines:
location /front/embed.html {
add_header X-Frame-Options "ALLOW";
alias /frontent/embed.html;
}
}
Then reload nginx with ``docker-compose restart nginx``.
Rate limiting
^^^^^^^^^^^^^
With this release, rate-limiting on the API is enabled by default, with high enough limits to ensure
regular users of the app aren't affected. Requests beyond allowed limits are answered with a 429 HTTP error.
For anonymous requests, the limit is applied to the IP adress of the client, and for authenticated requests, the limit
is applied to the corresponding user account. By default, anonymous requests get a lower limit than authenticated requests.
You can disable the rate-limiting feature by adding `THROTTLING_ENABLED=false` to your ``.env`` file and restarting the
services. If you are using the Funkwhale API in your project or app and want to know more about the limits, please consult https://docs.funkwhale.audio/swagger/.
Broken audio streaming when using S3/Minio and DSub [manual action required]
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Some Subsonic clients, such as DSub, are sending an Authorization headers which was forwarded
to the S3 storage when streaming, causing some issues. If you are using S3 or a compatible storage
such as Minio, please add the following in your nginx ``~ /_protected/media/(.+)`` location::
# Needed to ensure DSub auth isn't forwarded to S3/Minio, see #932
proxy_set_header Authorization "";
And reload your nginx process.

0.19.0 (2019-05-16)
-------------------
Upgrade instructions are available at
https://docs.funkwhale.audio/admin/upgrading.html
Edits on tracks, albums and artists
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Funkwhale was a bit annoying when it camed to metadata. Tracks, albums and artists profiles
were created from audio file tags, but basically immutable after that (unless you had
admin access to Django's UI, which wasn't ideal to do this kind of changes).
With this release, everyone can suggest changes on track, album and artist pages. Users
with the "library" permission can review suggested edits in a dedicated interface
and apply/reject them.
Approved edits are broadcasted via federation, to ensure other instances get the information
too.
Not all fields are currently modifiable using this feature. Especially, it's not possible
to suggest a new album cover, or reassign a track to a different album or artist. Those will
be implemented in a future release.
Admin UI for tracks, albums, artists, libraries and uploads
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
As part of our ongoing effort to make Funkwhale easier to manage for instance owners,
this release includes a brand new administration interface to deal with:
- tracks
- albums
- artists
- libraries
- uploads
You can use this UI to quickly search for any object, delete objects in batch, understand
where they are coming from etc. This new UI should remove the need to go through Django's
admin in the vast majority of cases (but also includes a link to Django's admin when needed).
Artist hiding in the interface
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
It's now possible for users to hide artists they don't want to see.
Content linked to hidden artists will not show up in the interface anymore. Especially:
- Hidden artists tracks are removed from the current queue
- Starting a playlist will skip tracks from hidden artists
- Recently favorited, recently listened and recently added widgets on the homepage won't include content from hidden artists
- Radio suggestions will exclude tracks from hidden artists
- Hidden artists won't appear in Subsonic apps
Results linked to hidden artists will continue to show up in search results and their profile page remains accessible.
OAuth2 authorization for better integration with third-party apps
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Funkwhale now support the OAuth2 authorization and authentication protocol which will allow
third-party apps to interact with Funkwhale on behalf of users.
This feature makes it possible to build third-party apps that have the same capabilities
as Funkwhale's Web UI. The only exception at the moment is for actions that requires
special permissions, such as modifying instance settings or moderation (but this will be
enabled in a future release).
If you want to start building an app on top of Funkwhale's API, please check-out
`https://docs.funkwhale.audio/api.html`_ and `https://docs.funkwhale.audio/developers/authentication.html`_.
Better error handling and display during import
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Funkwhale should now be more resilient to missing tags in imported files, and give
you more insights when something goes wrong, including the specific tags that were missing
or invalid, and additional debug information to share in your support requests.
This information is available in all pages that list uploads, when clicking on the button next to the upload status.
Support for S3-compatible storages to store media files
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Storing all media files on the Funkwhale server itself may not be possible or desirable
in all scenarios. You can now configure Funkwhale to store those files in a S3
bucket instead.
Check-out `https://docs.funkwhale.audio/admin/external-storages.html`_ if you want to use
this feature.
Prune library command
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Users are often surprised by Funkwhale's tendency to keep track, album and artist
metadata even if no associated files exist.
To help with that, we now offer a ``prune_library`` management command you can run
to purge your database from obsolete entries. `Please refer to our documentation
for usage instructions <https://docs.funkwhale.audio/admin/commands.html#pruning-library>`_.
Check in-place files command
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
When using in-place import with a living audio library, you'll quite often rename or
remove files from the file system. Unfortunately, Funkwhale keeps a reference to those
files in the database, which results in unplayable tracks.
To help with that, we now offer a ``check_inplace_files`` management command you can run
to purge your database from obsolete files. `Please refer to our documentation
for usage instructions <https://docs.funkwhale.audio/admin/commands.html#remove-obsolete-files-from-database>`_.

Enhancements:
- [Experimental] Added a new "Similar" radio based on users history (suggested by @gordon)
- Added a "load more" button on artist pages to load more tracks/albums (#719)
- Added a `check_inplace_files` management command to remove purge the database from references to in-place imported files that don't exist on disk anymore (#781)
- Added a prune_library management command to remove obsolete metadata from the database (#777)
- Added admin options to disable login for users, ensure related content is deleted when deleting a user account (#809)
- Added standardized translation context for all strings in the frontend to give accurate hints to translators.
- Added twitter:* meta tags to detect tracks and albums players automatically on more sites (#578)
Improved responsiveness of embedded player
- Advertise the list of supported upload extensions in the Nodeinfo endpoint (#808)
- Better handling of follow/accept messages to avoid and recover from desync between instances (#830)
- Better workflow for connecting to another instance (#715)
Changing the instance used is now better integrated in the App, and it is checked that the chosen instance and the suggested instances are valid and running Funkwhale servers.
- Bumped dependencies to latest versions (#815)

Avoid mixed content when deploying mono-container behind proxy [Manual action required]
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
*You are only concerned if you use the mono-container docker deployment behind a reverse proxy*
Because of `an issue in our mono-container configuration <https://github.com/thetarkus/docker-funkwhale/issues/19>`_, users deploying Funkwhale via docker
using our `funkwhale/all-in-one` image could face some mixed content warnings (and possibly other troubles)
when browsing the Web UI.
