Mastodon 4.6 released
[Posted June 18, 2026 by corbet]
Version<br>4.6 of the Mastodon fediverse platform has been released.
The headliner of this release is Collections, a way to create and<br>share curated collections of profiles. Part of Mastodon's work<br>ethos is our commitment to trust and safety, so we've put a lot of<br>thought and care into the design of this feature to avoid some of<br>the pitfalls and abuse people have experienced with similar<br>features on other platforms, while focusing on its primary goal:<br>Helping new users discover more of the Fediverse.
Other new features include support for subscribing to posts via email, the<br>ability to generate a "year in review" post, accessibility improvements,<br>and more.
