2025-11-17[chore] Go back to using `name` for attachment alt text for now, add note in ↵v0.20.2Libravatar tobi1
docs (#4559) # Description > If this is a code change, please include a summary of what you've coded, and link to the issue(s) it closes/implements. > > If this is a documentation change, please briefly describe what you've changed and why. This pull request switches us back to using the `name` property instead of the `summary` property for media descriptions for now, as using `summary` was causing accessibility issues with folks on *key, *oma, and Iceshrimp instances not being able to see GtS alt text, as those softwares (as of their latest releases I think) only look for `name`. Also updates the docs to add a note there on our intention to switch to using the HTML `summary` property instead of / in addition to `name` from v0.21.0 onwards. closes https://codeberg.org/superseriousbusiness/gotosocial/issues/4524 ## Checklist Please put an x inside each checkbox to indicate that you've read and followed it: `[ ]` -> `[x]` If this is a documentation change, only the first checkbox must be filled (you can delete the others if you want). - [x] I/we have read the [GoToSocial contribution guidelines](https://codeberg.org/superseriousbusiness/gotosocial/src/branch/main/CONTRIBUTING.md). - [x] I/we have discussed the proposed changes already, either in an issue on the repository, or in the Matrix chat. - [x] I/we have not leveraged AI to create the proposed changes. - [x] I/we have performed a self-review of added code. - [x] I/we have written code that is legible and maintainable by others. - [x] I/we have commented the added code, particularly in hard-to-understand areas. - [x] I/we have made any necessary changes to documentation. - [ ] I/we have added tests that cover new code. - [x] I/we have run tests and they pass locally with the changes. - [x] I/we have run `go fmt ./...` and `golangci-lint run`.

2025-07-09[feature] Use `hidesToPublicFromUnauthedWeb` and ↵Libravatar tobi1
`hidesCcPublicFromUnauthedWeb` properties for web visibility of statuses (#4315) This pull request implements two new properties on ActivityPub actors: `hidesToPublicFromUnauthedWeb` and `hidesCcPublicFromUnauthedWeb`. As documented, these properties allow actors to signal their preference for whether or not their posts should be hidden from unauthenticated web views (ie., web pages like the GtS frontend, web apps like the Mastodon frontend, web APIs like the Mastodon public timeline API, etc). This allows remote accounts to *opt in* to having their unlisted visibility posts shown in (for example) the replies section of the web view of a GtS thread. In future, we can also use these properties to determine whether we should show boosts of a remote actor's post on a GtS profile, and that sort of thing. In keeping with our stance around privacy by default, GtS assumes `true` for `hidesCcPublicFromUnauthedWeb` if the property is not set on a remote actor, ie., hide unlisted/unlocked posts by default. `hidesToPublicFromUnauthedWeb` is assumed to be `false` if the property is not set on a remote actor, ie., show public posts by default. ~~WIP as I still want to work on the documentation for this a bit.~~ New props are already in the namespace document: https://gotosocial.org/ns Reviewed-on: https://codeberg.org/superseriousbusiness/gotosocial/pulls/4315 Reviewed-by: kim <gruf@noreply.codeberg.org> Co-authored-by: tobi <tobi.smethurst@protonmail.com> Co-committed-by: tobi <tobi.smethurst@protonmail.com>
2025-05-13[chore] Deprecate `with_approval`, `always` (client API), ↵Libravatar tobi1
`approvalRequired`, `always` (fedi API) (#4173) This pull request deprecates `with_approval` and `always` on the client API side, and `approvalRequired` and `always` on the fedi API side, replacing them with `automatic_approval` and `manual_approval` and `automaticApproval` and `manualApproval`, respectively. Back-compat is kept with these deprecated fields, and they're still serialized to the client API and fedi APIs respectively, in addition to the new non-deprecated properties. This will stay the case until v0.21.0 when they'll be removed. For the sake of not doing a massive database migration, the fields are still named `Always` and `WithApproval` in storage. I think this is probably fine!
