Lots of small improvements across the user experience, and opt-in search, make this an important release.

opt-in search

This is what I don't understand: When people mark a post as public and discoverable, meaning Google and Bing and such can already find and index it, why would one need to opt-in to making it available via Mastodon search? Isn't that what Unlisted is already for?

Is it opt-out for performance reasons? If it was opt-in, maybe large instances will crumble.

Anyway, this is a wild guess.
