Changelog
Everything we've shipped recently, newest first.
- Improved
Imprint and privacy policy completed
The imprint now names the managing director and the person responsible for content. The privacy policy additionally describes Minecraft verification, abuse protection, email and push notifications and the legal basis of each processing — and now says explicitly that profiles are public, and what that means.
- Improved
Account settings where you already are
Account, privacy and notifications now sit at the foot of every workspace's sidebar instead of dropping the navigation the moment you open them. The menu in the header names all three pages, and carries your own name.
- Fixed
Bedrock servers can prove themselves with the MOTD too
The MOTD check now asks which edition a server is, and speaks the right protocol for it — a Bedrock server used to be checked as if it were Java, which answers nothing and reads as “unreachable” for a server that is up. The check also no longer goes through a third-party status service: the ping is made by our own relay, so the addresses a team enters are not handed to anybody.
- New
Unsubscribe in one click, from the mail itself
Your mail client's own “Unsubscribe” button now works: one press stops that kind of email, without opening a page or signing in. It switches off only the kind of notification the mail was about — a message notification you leave behind does not also stop the mail about a moderation measure — and the link in the footer still opens the full list of switches.
- New
Say what a work sample is
Every picture and clip in a gallery can now carry one line about what it is — “the spawn from the west”, “the plugin's config screen”. It is optional, it is shown under the piece it belongs to, and it is what a screen reader announces instead of “picture 2 of 6”. A listing's inspiration files can be labelled the same way.
- Improved
Your Microsoft sign-in is not kept
Verifying a Minecraft account needs a Microsoft sign-in, and until now we kept the permission it gave us — for months, although nothing between two checks uses it. It is dropped as soon as a check succeeds, so the next one asks Microsoft again. The button says so before you press it.
- Fixed
Threads stop looking unread everywhere at once
Opening a conversation marks it read the way every other change in the product is made — as an action, not as a side effect of loading the page. What that fixes is a second tab: it used to keep the unread mark for a thread you had read minutes ago, and now hears about it immediately. Without JavaScript there is a button for it.
- New
Say where remote applicants may be
A remote listing can now name the countries it accepts applicants from — and if it names none, it restricts nobody. Until now the country a team gave for itself was passed to search engines as a restriction on applicants, so a remote position posted by a German server was only shown to people in Germany, although its author had turned nobody away.
