cross-posted from: https://fedia.io/m/mbinReleases@gehirneimer.de/t/4015612

We are happy to finally release the full 1.10.0 and looking forward to your feedback.

We have 3 different summaries below. One for end-users, one for server admins, and finally a summary for developers.

Summary for Users

• Add support for lists of keyword filters of content; they can be scoped to content, comments and profile-overviews and can have an expiration-date
• Show the custom title of users and add the option to set one for yourself
• Add the option to also show content which was boosted by people you follow in the Combined view
• Pagination is now done by "anchors" (like that date of the last thread on the page) instead of page-numbers, to improve performance
• Add an indicator when a user has their "cake day"
• Fix search not returning most of Lemmy users and magazines
• Fix the search when searching content, users or magazines by their URL
• The date field of the search form now has a preset value
• Small UI improvements to make the elements of posts and threads more consistent (the layout for posts in Combined view can be toggled in the UI settings)
• Prevent opening a thread or post when touching interactive elements (buttons, spoilers, ...) on mobile
• Suppress notification for added content if it is more than two days old (for example after delayed federation)
• Fix infinite scrolling of comments
• Fix reply button for comments on locked threads and posts not being disabled

Summary for Server Admins

• Introduces monitoring: record a variety of metrics and show statistics what causes performance-issues on your server
• Uploaded images now get compressed to fit the size limit (see the docs)
• Cached images can be removed with a command
• A new command for deleting orphaned media
• Extend the "check duplicate magazines" command to find and delete duplicate users in the database (which might block DB migrations)
• Make the language of fulltext-search configurable (see the docs)
• Fix list of inactive users always being empty

Tip about the Messengers

As the load of deliveries can get high from time to time it is now recommended to run at least one separate messenger process for the Deliver queue.
