Lemmy v0.18.3 Release (2023-07-28)
https://join-lemmy.org/news/2023-07-28_-_Lemmy_Release_v0.18.3
This version brings major optimizations to the database queries, which significantly reduces CPU usage. There is also a change to the way federation activities are stored, which reduces database size by around 80%. Special thanks to @phiresky for their work on DB optimizations.
The federation code now includes a check for dead instances which is used when sending activities. This helps to reduce the amount of outgoing POST requests, and also reduce server load.
In terms of security, Lemmy now performs HTML sanitization on all messages which are submitted through the API or received via federation. Together with the tightened content-security-policy from 0.18.2, cross-site scripting attacks are now much more difficult.
Other than that, there are numerous bug fixes and minor enhancements.

@meldrik@lemmy.wtf Got tired of frequent DDoS attacks and federation issues (lemmy.world bubble) and hence made a new account on a smaller instance.

Notes:
- Both the Backend as well as the Frontend have a rather convoluted commit history (UI much worse than BE). It almost looks like
git rebasedoes not exist.

Not too long now until lemmy-0.18.0 gets released.
Looks like Captchas have been restored after they been initially removed from 0.18.X and then removed again. It's getting funny!
