   I may make my default posting more restrictive. I already know enough people anyhow I think. I currently go with 'unlisted'. Not sure if this makes those public or not - because there is the other case of 'public', which I interpret as 'crawlable' by google et alia.

     Interesting... mastodon.online (often used for testing upcoming features) now has a new public web page, see the attached screenshot.

     This is the view *without* being logged in, and shows the Explore tab by default, with options to see Local and Federated. Try it yourself at https://mastodon.online

     There hasn't been a new Mastodon release since May, yet there are some important new features now active on mastodon.online but not yet released in the main version, including hashtag following, built-in translation etc. Post editing isn't available, but it's been part of the code for a whie now in a deactivated form.

     It's unclear why there hasn't been a new release in such a long time as new features pile up waiting to go out. Are they planning to release lots of important features all at once in some kind of mega-release?
