The development cycle for the 2024.06 release enters the last stage before the stable release – today we have branched off the 2024.06 release candid branch. 2024.06-rc contains all the features of the stable release and is meant to test the new features, find some last rough edges and smooth out the path to the final stable release at the end of June. If you want to help out in testing, please checkout the new 2024.06-rc branch and report problems that you encounter.
The most notable changes in this release are:
- We improved federation to other projects in the Fediverse (OWA, optional note/article, FEP-e232),
- contacts can now be defined as circle/channel only, so they wont show up in your main network stream,
- public groups can now have moderation for new members.

What to do with Quirks
