Server Config Issues
I'm the admin of a small server, which I set up a few months ago with the one-click install and then migrated to glitch-soc (https://glitch-soc.github.io/docs/). Recently I tried updating it to the new version of glitch-soc due to recent security updates. However I seem to have broken my server.

Can I use html tags in the text? Want to italicize some words.
Have a look at glitch - a fork of Mastodon that looks and feels and behaves mostly just like mastodon but has Markdown support.

Mastodon: Add support for incoming rich text
A good start to see Mastodons upstream finally implement features considered so necessary that they existed in a fork for years beforehand[0].
I'm not trying to sound cynical, this is legit a good change. Other fedi implementations have supported different message formatting (mainly markdown) for ages and that shit still degrading away to plaintext on Mastodon is extremely aggravating if you decide to (for example) use a bulletpoint list.

Anything similar to Thread Reader for Mastodon?
You don't have to maintain a soft fork; Glitch-soc is a "friendly fork" which shares maintainers with upstream and has lots of great features, including a configurable post length limit.

It's disappointing that hashtags have been perpetuated in Mastodon.
What the fuck is your problem? Why do you some here just to see? Are you so fucking retarded that you don't think this issue have been brought up before? Do you think I'm just making up this on the spot? https://github.com/glitch-soc/mastodon/pull/1502 https://github.com/GlitchCatFedi/Policy/blob/main/Global%20Fulltext%20Search.markdown

AMA with Eugen Rochko, Founder and lead developer of Mastodon, a decentralized, open-source social media platform based on open web protocols. Ask your questions here!
Can we expect to see any of the https://glitch-soc.github.io/docs/ features coming to Mastodon mainline soon? Post formatting? Highlighting of misleading links? or local only posting?

Scaling Mastodon in the Face of an Exodus
So this one is a fork, and infosec.exchange is a fork (https://github.com/glitch-soc/mastodon); are the mastodon committers opposed to incorporating those changes, or this fork situation is "as it should be" while these experiments run their course?
I'm all for experimentation, but since "the exodus" I've become acutely aware of how many instances are out there advertising their version number, so the first big rails (or mastodon itself) vuln is going to be some ooooonooooz
