there is a discord server with an @everyone in case of future important updates, such as vulnerabilities (most recently 2023-07-23)

new features

  • "medialinks"; instead of the usual hotlink, the basic-uploader (as used by sharex and such) can return a link that opens the file in the media viewer c9281f8
    • enable for all uploads with volflag medialinks, or just for one upload by adding ?media to the post url
  • thumbnails are now fully compatible with dirkeys/filekeys 52e0622
  • --th-covers will respect filename order, selecting the first matching filename as the folder thumbnail 1cdb170
  • new hook: bittorrent downloader bd3b386 803e156
  • hooks: d749683
    • can be restricted to only run when user has specific permissions
    • user permissions are also included in the json message to the hook
    • new syntax to prepend args to the hook's command
    • (all this will be better documented after some additional upcoming hook-related features, see --help-hooks for now)
  • support descript.ion usenet metadata; will parse and render into directory listings when possible 927c3bc
    • directory listings are now 2% slower, eh who's keeping count anyways
  • tftp-server: 4525925
    • improved support for buggy clients
    • improved ipv6 support, especially on macos
    • improved robustness on unreliable networks
  • #85 new option --gsel to default-enable the client setting to select files by ctrl-clicking them in the grid 9a87ee2
  • music player: set audio volume by scrollwheel 36d6d29

bugfixes

  • race-the-beam (downloading an unfinished upload) could get interrupted near the end, requiring a manual resume in the browser's download manager to finish f37187a
  • ftp-server: when accessing the root folder of servers without a root folder, it could mention inaccessible folders 84e8e1d
  • ftp-server: uploads will automatically replace existing files if user has delete perms 0a9f4c6
    • windows 2000 expects this behavior, otherwise it'll freak out and delete stuff and then not actually upload it, nice
    • new option --ftp-no-ow restores old default behavior of rejecting upload if target filename exists
  • music player:
    • stop trying to recover from a corrupted file if the user already fixed it manually 55a011b
    • support downloading the currently playing song regardless of current folder c06aa68
  • music player preloader: db6059e
    • stop searching after 5 folders of nothing
    • don't crash playback by walking into error-pages
  • --og (rich discord embeds) was incompatible with viewing markdown docs d75a2c7
  • --cgen (configfile generator) much less jank d5de3f2

  • give up much sooner if a client is supposed to send a request body but isn't c549f36
  • support running copyparty as a server on windows 2000 and winXP 8c73e0c 2fd12a8
