The big feature in release v3.2.2 of Ktistec is pinned posts with support for the Mastodon Featured Posts collection. Federation works both ways—pin a post on Ktistec and it will show up as a pinned post on Mastodon and vice versa. When you refresh an actor profile, Ktistec also fetches and updates the actor's pinned posts. This is another small step in the direction of supporting all features that Mastodon-compatible client applications expect to access via the API. It's also useful in its own right.
The other major feature, which I posted a short video demonstrating here, is X-Ray Mode. X-Ray Mode is a developer and power-user tool for inspecting ActivityPub JSON-LD representations of actors, objects, and other content. Pressing Ctrl+Shift+X on any page displays the data behind the page—like an x-ray. You can:
Cached Version: View the local JSON-LD representation stored in the Ktistec databaseRemote Version: Fetch and view the original JSON-LD representation from the source serverNavigation: Click on any ActivityPub IRI to navigate to that objectHistory: Use Alt+Left and Alt+Right to navigate through your viewing historyThis feature is useful for debugging federation issues, understanding ActivityPub structures, and verifying how content is stored and represented.
Here's the full changelog for the release:
Added
Support for pinned posts and the Mastodon "featured posts" collection.X-Ray Mode for viewing and navigating JSON-LD resource (actor, object, etc.) representations.Back links on thread pages for easier navigation. (fixes #1)License page for LibreJS compliance. (fixes #127)Highlighting of recently fetched hashtagged posts.Changed
Improved presentation of audio and video media.Refactored theming/styling implementation.The next release will focus on smaller features and bug fixes.
Enjoy!

Anyone know what fediverse.blog is? Received some spam comments from them and the entire site just looks like adspam federating outward.
