I started working on private groups in Mitra. Beginning with version 5.10.0, you can follow private communities on Lemmy 1.0 beta (test instance: https://voyager.lemmy.ml/), post to them and leave comments on posts.

Local private groups are not supported yet, but I hope to finish this part soon.

I will also try to make Mitra at least partially compatible with Shoot - an instant messenger built on ActivityPub that has private groupchats based on FEP-1b12.

- Partial interoperability with private communities on Lemmy (available in Lemmy v1.0 beta). You can follow them and participate in discussions.
- The ability to mute threads was added.
- "Local", "Federated" and "Profile directory" links were moved from the navigation bar to the "Explore" page.
- It is now possible to determine custom feeds to which a user has been added (profile menu -> "View custom feeds")

Replying to @⁨silverpill@mitra.social⁩

@silverpill Got it.
Is that a hard NO, or is there any chance Mitra can still emit FEP-044f-compatible Accepts in a static way, without any actual approval mechanisms, so servers that do follow FEP-044f don't get fucked while trying to quote Mitra or process the posts that are quoting Mitra? I'll land the PR if this is a possibility.
