whoops
- CW filtering is now live!
- check it out on your settings page!
- case insensitive, does not currently support partial matching. (we’ll be fixing that soon!)
- this is a per-user setting, meaning it will apply to all your pages but, if you have co-editors on any pages, will not apply to them.
- tag filtering is coming soon! CW filtering was slightly easier and taught us where we needed to improve some of our infrastructure.
- migrated our internal API framework to a New Major Version
- this took longer than we expected, but it’s ok because it’s done now
- fixed some bugs in our moderation pages
- added New Enforcement Options for community guidelines violations
- specifically, in cases of Extreme Username Squatting, we are now able to prevent users from creating new pages
smaller week this week since CW filtering and the API framework upgrade were both pretty substantial tasks. here’s what’s coming up:
- redesign for CW’d and 18+ posts, along with the ability to re-hide them if you’ve clicked through
- automated account deletions for accounts that have posted
- right now, we’re only able to delete accounts that either haven’t posted, or whose posts have never been shared.
- the reason for this is that we treat account deletions as full deletions — your data is no longer on our servers — and any shares of posts must maintain a reference to a Real Post Object.
- to get around this, we’re working on a system for creating empty posts assigned to a fake user to keep these references functional.
- in the very near term, we’ll still require users to email support@cohost.org to request account deletion, but we’ll be adding fully self-service options here soon.
- a bookmarked tag feed
- a separate view from your main dashboard that just shows posts from tags you’ve bookmarked!
- making the necessary infrastructure improvements to do tag filtering, then tag filtering
that’s all for this week! thanks, as always, for using cohost!
