We've successfully upgraded our Mastodon server to v4.6.0-alpha.7+mementomods-2026-05-02, along with Mastodon Bird UI 4.0.0-alpha.7 (nightly).
This update includes today's latest daily build with 207 new commits from upstream since mementomods-2026-04-05.
What's new in Mastodon core - These are the changes Mastodon Team have introduced us in the latest nightly version we are running:
✨️ New features
- Collections continue to mature - per-user maximum number of collections, "Featuring you" tab, "Follows you" badge in lists, federated `Flag` activities, "added to collection" notifications with full context menus, and viewing unlisted collections on your own Featured tab
- New collection editor - final design for account dropdown menu, account search dropdown, accounts editor page, "Must follow" section in suggestions, grouped Combobox results
- Profile redesign keeps polishing - full join date (currently in modal), animated/transparent avatars, illustrations using CSS vars, control over follower/following list visibility, bot toggle in editing, advanced view overflow fix
- Server thumbnail alt text - admins can now define alt text for the server thumbnail, surfaced in the frontend
- Fallback attributes for new and infrequent notification types so no event renders as an empty card
- Keyboard-only modal form submission
- Extended date display for relative times when `feature_approval` cooldown applies, including new `AccountMigration#remaining_cooldown_days` helper
- New `domain_variants` helper on `DomainNormalizable` for IDN handling
🔧 Fixes & improvements
- Several profile bugs - minor visual glitches, gap in fields layout, dropdown blocking missing the confirmation modal, follower/following list error for accounts that never posted
- Custom emoji not appearing in autocomplete
- Stale collections list after deleting a collection, broken client-side collection routes, collection item limit, multiple occurrences of the same user in a collection
- Quote blocked user issue
- Bio line clamping in `AccountListItem`
- Combobox loading state and confusing admin list hover states
- Streaming server uses WHATWG URL API instead of deprecated `url.parse`
- Signature verification fixes carried from previous nightly
- Importing emoji loader statically inside the inline worker (Vite 8 compatibility)
- Hero image radius brought back into repo
📦 Dependency updates
- Ruby 4.0.3 (from 4.0.2), Puma 8.0.1, Vite 8.0.10, Node.js 24.15, Yarn 4.14.1, Sidekiq 8.1.3, propshaft, formatjs, opentelemetry-ruby, and dozens of smaller bumps
🐦⬛ Mastodon Bird UI 4.0.0-alpha.7 (nightly)
- Fix duplicate profile buttons after upstream class name change
- Remove padding-top from `account__header__buttons` on viewports under 420px
- Apply `--font-size` variables to display name, form field wrapper, app form link text, and simple_form hints so accessible themes scale them correctly
- Move field list row-gap 5px to all viewports
- Fix follows you badge and pinned badge styling
- Fix familiar followers margin spacing
- Fix profile badge and username spacing
- Map `--color-text-brand` to `--color-accent` for consistent link colors

Afternoon #Mastodon, it's been a while, how are we all doing? 👀😁

¿Sabían que la tradición del #Caturday en el Fediverso heredó el espíritu de los primeros tablones de imágenes de internet pero se transformó en un pilar de la identidad de Mastodon?
A diferencia de otras redes donde el contenido se rige por algoritmos de relevancia, en Mastodon el uso de este hashtag se consolidó de forma orgánica como un ejercicio de cohesión comunitaria. En los primeros años de la plataforma, cerca de 2016 y 2017, los usuarios buscaban formas de replicar las dinámicas de grupos pequeños y cercanos. El sábado se eligió como el momento semanal para inundar las líneas de tiempo con imágenes de gatitos, sirviendo como una pausa visual frente a las discusiones que predominaban en las instancias tecnológicas iniciales.
Hoy en día, es una de las etiquetas más constantes y seguidas en toda la red, demostrando que las costumbres digitales pueden sobrevivir y evolucionar positivamente cuando el control del contenido está en manos de las personas y no de las empresas.

Si la izquierda quiere ganar las proximas elecciones puede hacer esto. Instalar Linux en todo el gobierno 😈 Y si mueve todas las cuentas gubernamentales de #X y #meta a servidores propios de #mastodon, más votos 😈

Quel est votre client #Mastodon favori pour #Android ?
Just built a custom AI assistant trained on Charles Bukowski’s rawest works. It doesn’t offer comfort, just cold truths and a glass of cheap wine.
Currently testing it from a noisy suburban bar surrounded by the usual crowd. If it starts cursing at the patrons, I’ll know it’s working.

Everybody has gone through something that has changed them in a way that they could never go back to the person they once were.
