1.000.000 € Baby....besser in die Sicherung der Infrastruktur stecken
Wenn hier Preisdruck entsteht liegt das vielleicht daran, dass
# sich ein zu großer Teil der Elternschaft besseres nicht leisten können
# der Teil, die es sich leisten können unter dem Glauben leben, dass man reich wird, nicht von dem, was man einnimmt sondern von dem, was man nicht ausgibt
# Spielzeugkolonialismus betrieben wird
# Transport zu billig ist.

Friendica 2026.01 released
We are very happy to announce the availability of the new stable release of Friendica “Blutwurz” 2026.01. In addition to several improvements and new features, this release contains fixes for security problems that Hrizi Bilel has notified us about. Thanks for your report! It also contains the first results of a accessibility review by Casey Kreer.
Some highlight of Friendica 2026.01 are
- we overhauled the embedding of media from various sources and improved several aspects,
- users can now sort widgets and channels,
- the performance of system and user defined channels has improved,
- admins can now export and import contact block lists and block access for non-logged in visitors to media included in posting.
If you have developed your own addons for Friendica note that we reworked our hook system and introduced a new AddonHelper class.
For details, please the CHANGELOG file in the repository.
What is Friendica
Friendica is a decentralised communications platform, you can use to host your own social media server that integrates with independent social networking platforms (like the Fediverse or Diaspora*) but also some commercial ones like Tumblr and BlueSky.
How to Update
Updating from old Friendica versions
If you are updating from an older version than the 2024.12 release, please first update your Friendica instance to that version .
Pre-Update Procedures
Ensure that the last backup of your Friendica installation was done recently.
Using Git
Updating from the git repositories should only involve a pull from the Friendica core repository and addons repository, regardless of the branch (stable or develop) you are using. Remember to update the dependencies with composer as well. So, assuming that you are on the stable branch, the commands to update your installation to the 2026.01 release would be
cd friendica
git pull
bin/composer.phar run install:prod
cd addon
git pull
If you want to use a different branch than the stable one, you need to fetch and checkout the branch before your perform the git pull.
Pulling in the dependencies with composer will show some deprecation warning, we will be working on that in the upcoming release.
Using the Archive Files
If you had downloaded the source files in an archive file (tar.gz) please download the current version of the archive from friendica-full-2026.01.tar.gz (sha256) and friendica-addons 2026.01.tar.gz (sha256)) and unpack it on your local computer.
As many files got deleted or moved around, please upload the unpacked files to a new directory on your server (say friendica_new) and copy over your existing configuration (config/local.config.php and config/addon.config.php) and .htaccess files. Afterwards rename your current Friendica directory (e.g. friendica) to friendica_old and friendica_new to friendica.
The files of the dependencies are included in the archive (make sure you are using the friendica-full-2026.01 archive), so you don’t have to worry about them.
Post Update Tasks
The database update should be applied automatically, but sometimes it gets stuck. If you encounter this, please initiate the DB update manually from the command line by running the script
bin/console dbstructure update
from the base of your Friendica installation. If the output contains any error message, please let us know using the channels mentioned below.
Please note, that some of the changes to the database structure will take some time to be applied, depending on the size of your Friendica database this update might run for days.
If you are using the daemon for your background worker, note that we have moved the functionality into the console. Adopt your setup to use the new bin/console daemon command.
Known Issues
At the time of writing this, none with 2026.01
How to Contribute
If you want to contribute to the project, you don’t need to have coding experience. There are a number of tasks listed in the issue tracker with the label “Junior Jobs” we think are good for new contributors. But you are by no means limited to these – if you find a solution to a problem (even a new one) please make a pull request at github or let us know in the development forum.
Contribution to Friendica is also not limited to coding. Any contribution to the documentation, the translation or advertisement materials is welcome or reporting a problem. You don’t need to deal with Git(Hub) or Transifex if you don’t like to. Just get in touch with us and we will get the materials to the appropriate places.
Thanks everyone who helped making this release possible, and especially to all the new contributors to Friendica, and have fun!

Completed updating u3a.social. Took the opportunity to migrate away from containers, so all native now 😀
Have enabled the channel cache as mentioned here.
The workerqueue jumped up with many UpdateContacts and FetchMissingReplies ... cron seems to be keeping up though.
Phil Bass mag das.
It took about 12 hours for my workerqueue size to return to normal .. have others seen this ?
I also noticed a large number of bluesky post appearing on my timeline ... I suppose the result of one of the fixes (I unticked "complete the threads" to reduce the posts).
But, u3a.social seems to be back to normal now ... seems pretty responsive to me. Very happy 😀
Tobias mag das.
