Takahē 0.9 Timeline Removal

In an upcoming release of Takahē, we are removing the timeline, compose, and explore views from the Web UI; instead, we will be focusing on the app API and ensuring compatibility with a large range of Mastodon client applications.

If you do not use the web UI currently, there is nothing to do; everything will continue to work, and you’ll just see a new UI if you log in to change your settings.

If you do use the Takahē web UI as your primary interface, you will need to migrate off of it to something else; we recommend Elk if you want to keep using a web-based client, though there’s quite a few options for every platform.

At no point will any of your data or posts be affected.

This change will happen on or after Friday 5th May; we cannot give an exact time, but we wanted to give anyone affected at least a week to switch.

If you want more background on this change, you can read about it in Andrew’s latest blog post.

Thanks!
