== New
* **People from across the Fediverse can follow Betula**. Betula instances are available with nicknames like @betulist@links.example.org, where @betulist is the username you've chosen when registering and @links.example.org is the domain of your Betula. Make sure to set the correct domain in the Settings.
** Followers will receive all new public bookmarks, as well as updates to them.
** Betula can also follow other Fediverse profiles but cannot yet receive incoming bookmarks. To follow somebody, enter their double-@ nickname in the search bar and click Follow. The bookmarks will flow in in the future.
* The bookmarks were redesigned.
** They are grouped by date, which is clickable and leads to the day page.
** The timestamps are removed from feeds.
** Both links in the title are external URL:s.
** The little number, which is the bookmark's ID, leads to the internal bookmark page.
** A Copy link button was added to every bookmark.
** Emoji visibility indicators were replaced with text.
** More stuff fits now in general.
* More bookmarking websites can be reposted now thanks to a more robust microformats parser.
** We are also working with Postmarks to make them repostable.
* URL:s are displayed with Punycode in mind.
* Many bugs were fixed.

= Note for nginx users
If you want to join the Fediverse with your Betula and you use nginx as a reverse proxy, update your configuration to pass the Host field verbatim to Betula. It is required for HTTP signature verification.

So, your server configuration should look something like this:
```nginx
server {
	server_name links.example.org;
	client_max_body_size 3M;
	location / {
		proxy_pass http://127.0.0.1:1738;
		proxy_set_header Host $host; # NEW LINE
	}
		
	# Certbot configuration is probably somewhere here.
}
```
