We released the Release Candidate for Mastodon 4.7 today.

It contains very few user-facing changes, but significantly reworks the backend code to improve security and support new protocol features.

We plan to release the final 4.7 version next week, so if you like being on the edge please test this RC and send us your feedback!

The database migrations might take a long time, this is expected.

Release notes and upgrade instructions are available here: https://github.com/mastodon/mastodon/releases/tag/v4.7.0-rc.1
