We're back. The regression has been fixed; profile pages and direct post links now again hide sensitive images until clicked on.
For instance admins: If you're still running 1.6.1, cherry-pick and merge in https://github.com/tootsuite/mastodon/pull/5009
We'll be going down shortly to merge in a patch for a "minor" bug that affects us rather critically.
1.6.1 has a regression where it will NOT hide sensitive media on profile pages or direct post links. This is obviously a very bad thing to stumble upon, especially for us.
@vfrmedia @cwebber @pony Some years ago users of a gaming site complained about the entropy so the administrator built this: http://www.gamesbyemail.com/News/DiceOMatic
So I guess I'm running 1.6.1 now but still can't get private messages from 2.0 servers because ~MASTODON~
*Sylveon with unsteady footing*
We're, um, on 1.6.1 now? I think everything is working and nothing's exploding... yet...?
Going down shortly to attempt an upgrade to 1.6.1
Will I ever not feel inferior to everyone else ... ?
@KitRedgrave oh wait no the profile page change killed some of the fixes *cries*
@KitRedgrave on the plus side you get to see my code in action now!
even if it is only really making avatars not look like dumb shit
I do quite desperately need a better job, but I constantly get that sort of feeling of "who would hire me" and "what am I even good for anyway"
But realistically that will probably never happen just due to the sheer time investment I would need
Slightly more likely but still improbable is forking Mastodon and just changing all the UI parts
Hmmmm.
If I had the time and energy, I would probably try my hand at making my own ActivityPub implementation. I find Mastodon's UI is rather lacking in a lot of ways

This one is the bubble sort (on of the less efficient) : https://social.wxcafe.net/media/svdqn3RLmb9e4LuVVgA
You know, it would be nice if the timing of the release candidate's release didn't feel like a direct attack on my support network
oh for fuck's sake I just mentioned to someone that DMed me that I knew I was going to have to deal with upgrading this instance due to 2.0 being breaking bullshit and that I don't have the energy to do so right now
AND GUESS WHAT HAPPENS
Quickly going over why I feel like I'm in a terrible spot right now and I'm seriously scared

I'm in a really, really bad spot right now, and I'm scared.
Swimmer's ear sucks.
I wonder how many private posts I'm missing because I'm still running 1.5
