kbin.earth updated to Mbin v1.9.0-rc2 (63e94f5)

Here's the list of user-facing changes from the release notes:

  • We enhanced security so that after a user changes their password or 2FA, all the current sessions of that user will be invalid and the user will need to log in again.

  • A new combined front page. You could make the combined front page the default in your profile settings. Which means you see both threads and microblogs combined on the homepage.

  • We also introduced a new feature under general settings, where you can select "Who can send you a direct message" (defaults to everybody).

  • We added support for magazine banners in Mbin (which is also compatible with Lemmy Communities).

  • Mbin combines the thread form into just one form (instead of having article, link, and photo having a separate form). Mbin now also federates bans correctly (both incoming and outgoing bans).

  • Global mods can now manage (view, approve and/or deny) account signups. Global mods can now also receive signup notifications, which will also come with a new menu item in the drop-down menu.

  • Plus various other bug fixes and CSS layout improvements, ban notification fixes, and too many other fixes to mention here.

Thank god, no more spam DM's. Do wish this default was more restrictive but I'll take it.

I've been looking forward to the combined front page! Though waiting to make sure it was stable was no big deal.

Yes, me too! I've already been using it extensively on Interstellar.

Yeah feel free to test it. It'd currently not the default view for many reasons. Including performance issues. As well as layout issues. And voting results.
