## Changes
## Key features
* **Enable Unlisted posting**, allowing you to post publicly without having your post show up in trends, hashtags or public timelines (i.e., in the tabs “Local”, “Community” and “Posts”).
> When posting with Unlisted visibility, your posts will be publicly accessible through your profile and shown in peoples Home timelines only if they follow you or someone they follow reposted/replied to your post.
>
> The Mastodon documentation has some more information about [Unlisted posting](https://docs.joinmastodon.org/user/posting/#unlisted) and [Public timelines](https://docs.joinmastodon.org/user/network/#timelines).
* **Enable the Federated timeline**, allowing you to chronologically see all Public posts from people on all other Fediverse instances your home instance is connected to.
> Despite being one of the main features of federated social media, the Federated timeline wasnt included in the official Mastodon app supposedly, because this conflicts with Googles safety requirements for apps on the Play Store.
>
> Thats one of the reasons why choosing a small, **well-moderated instance is important**. Instance admins and moderators should always make sure to ban abusive users and stop federating with instances who platform them. On well-moderated instances, the Federated timeline can be a welcoming place to meet new people!
* **Add an image description viewer**, allowing you to quickly check whether an image or video has an alternative text attached to it.
> This is important to **ensure the content youre sharing is as accessible as possible** to people who cant see the images and rely on software to read back the provided content descriptions. Thankfully, its quite common for people on the Fediverse to provide such alt texts, and hopefully things stay this way!
* **Enable pinning posts** so you can highlight certain posts on your profile. A dedicated “Pinned” tab in peoples profiles shows all the posts they pinned.
> On the Fediverse, its quite common for people to pin posts they want others to read before following them. You can pin/unpin posts yourself by clicking the `⋯` button in the top right corner of your posts.
* **Add Bookmarks** to allow quickly saving posts while scrolling through your timeline and viewing them through the Bookmarks button on the top right of your profile.
> To bookmark a post, press the button between the Favorite and Share buttons on the bottom of the post. Bookmarks are saved privately, so the post authors wont know you saved their post the list of bookmarked posts is only visible to you.
