We are very happy to announce the availability of the new stable release of Friendica “Yellow Archangel” 2024.03. In addition to several improvements and new features, this release contains several fixes for security issues reported by snajafov, arcanicanis and r1pu5u – Thank you for the reports! We strongly recommend all Friendica admins to update their installations to this stable release.
The highlights of Friendica 2024.03 are
We could optimize the performance in some areas.
An OCR addon based on Tesseract was added to optionally create missing image descriptions from the text containd in an image.
The Channels feature–our user defined algorithm to sort the network stream that was introduced with Friendica 2023.12–has been improved and expanded.
The handling of videos and images has been improved and support for WebP has been added.
Note that the minimal PHP version for Friendica was raised to PHP 7.4 with this release.
For details, please the CHANGELOG file in the repository.
What is Friendica
Friendica is a decentralised communications platform, you can use to host your own social media server that integrates with independent social networking platforms (like the Fediverse or Diaspora*) but also some commercial ones like Tumbler and BlueSky.
Ensure that the last backup of your Friendica installation was done recently.
Using Git
Updating from the git repositories should only involve a pull from the Friendica core repository and addons repository, regardless of the branch (stable or develop) you are using. Remember to update the dependencies with composer as well. So, assuming that you are on the stable branch, the commands to update your installation to the 2024.03 release would be cd friendica git pull bin/composer.phar install --no-dev cd addon git pull If you want to use a different branch than the stable one, you need to fetch and checkout the branch before your perform the git pull.
Pulling in the dependencies with composer will show some deprecation warning, we will be working on that in the upcoming release.
Using the Archive Files
We experience some problem with the build process for the addon archive of the stable branch and will add instruction how to upgrade your installation using the archive files as soon as possible.
Post Update Tasks
The database update should be applied automatically, but sometimes it gets stuck. If you encounter this, please initiate the DB update manually from the command line by running the script bin/console dbstructure update from the base of your Friendica installation. If the output contains any error message, please let us know using the channels mentioned below.
Please note, that some of the changes to the database structure will take some time to be applied, depending on the size of your Friendica database.
Known Issues
At the time of writing this, none
How to Contribute
If you want to contribute to the project, you don’t need to have coding experience. There are a number of tasks listed in the issue tracker with the label “Junior Jobs” we think are good for new contributors. But you are by no means limited to these – if you find a solution to a problem (even a new one) please make a pull request at github or let us know in the development forum.
Contribution to Friendica is also not limited to coding. Any contribution to the documentation, the translation or advertisement materials is welcome or reporting a problem. You don’t need to deal with Git(Hub) or Transifex if you don’t like to. Just get in touch with us and we will get the materials to the appropriate places.
Thanks everyone who helped making this release possible, and especially to all the new contributors to Friendica, and have fun!
@Wilhelm the posting has a summary, which is an AP field that is mis-used as CW by some. And TBH mis-labeled IMO in the Friendica UI; but yes the effect is expected.
"The ActivityPub protocol is completely hidden from end-users so I don't think it's relevant to use the protocol terminology in a user-facing form. I think we should stick to the main use for this field. Even if it's called differently in other platforms than Mastodon, if it is still displayed as content warning on those platforms, we should call it "content warning"."
Personally I never felt the need to give a summary of the post I am about to send. This can easily be done in the post itself. The current usage in friendica is very confusing and I think it should be changed to match how users actually use the field. So +1 for changing that naming to Content Warning.
Besides that, I am not a fan of having to "Click to open/close" to get to the actua

Besides that, I am not a fan of having to "Click to open/close" to get to the actual post. I think the idea of a post summary is not how real world usage of the Fediverse works. It complicates the usage and is not what I would expect as behavior. In case of the release notes, first I see a "Content Warning" but then depending on your interpretation, that content warning is misused when compared with the majority of the Fediverse. And in order to get to the actual release notes I need engage manually which is annoying.
