v0.6.0 Changes
December 10, 2018🔋 Features
👍 SQLite support (T529)
You no longer need MySQL / MariaDB to store data for your instance! Just select SQLite during the configuration process to use it instead of the MySQL driver.
Reader / local timeline (T554)
Take a break from writing to see what others on your instance have written! Admins can now turn on the Local timeline option in the Admin panel (
[app] local_timelinein config.ini) to enable this for both writers on your instance and the wider public. The local timeline functions just like Read Write.as -- it includes an RSS feed, and is opt-in. Writers can start publishing their work on the feed by going into their blog settings and choosing the Public visibility option.More changes
