+
+The following changelog entries focus on changes visible to users, administrators, client developers or federated software developers, but there has also been a lot of code modernization, refactoring, and tooling work, in particular by [@danielmbrasil](https://github.com/danielmbrasil), [@mjankowski](https://github.com/mjankowski), [@nschonni](https://github.com/nschonni), [@renchap](https://github.com/renchap), and [@takayamaki](https://github.com/takayamaki).

+### Added
+
+- **Add role badges to the web interface** ([ClearlyClaire](https://github.com/mastodon/mastodon/pull/25649), [Gargron](https://github.com/mastodon/mastodon/pull/26281))

+  The `forward_to_domains` REST API parameter is a list of strings. If it is empty or omitted, the previous behavior is maintained.

+### Changed
+
+- **Change reblogs to be excluded from "Posts and replies" tab in web UI** ([Gargron](https://github.com/mastodon/mastodon/pull/26302))
+- **Change interaction modal in web interface** ([Gargron, ClearlyClaire](https://github.com/mastodon/mastodon/pull/26075), [ClearlyClaire](https://github.com/mastodon/mastodon/pull/26269), [ClearlyClaire](https://github.com/mastodon/mastodon/pull/26268), [ClearlyClaire](https://github.com/mastodon/mastodon/pull/26267))
+- **Change design of link previews in web UI** ([Gargron](https://github.com/mastodon/mastodon/pull/26136), [ClearlyClaire](https://github.com/mastodon/mastodon/pull/26151), [Gargron](https://github.com/mastodon/mastodon/pull/26153), [Gargron](https://github.com/mastodon/mastodon/pull/26250), [Gargron](https://github.com/mastodon/mastodon/pull/26287), [Gargron](https://github.com/mastodon/mastodon/pull/26286), [c960657](https://github.com/mastodon/mastodon/pull/26184))
+- **Change "direct message" nomenclature to "private mention" in web UI** ([Gargron](https://github.com/mastodon/mastodon/pull/24248))
+- **Change translation feature to cover Content Warnings, poll options and media descriptions** ([c960657](https://github.com/mastodon/mastodon/pull/24175), [S-H-GAMELINKS](https://github.com/mastodon/mastodon/pull/25251), [c960657](https://github.com/mastodon/mastodon/pull/26168))
+- **Change account search to match by text when opted-in** ([jsgoldstein](https://github.com/mastodon/mastodon/pull/25599), [Gargron](https://github.com/mastodon/mastodon/pull/26378))
+- **Change import feature to be clearer, less error-prone and more reliable** ([ClearlyClaire](https://github.com/mastodon/mastodon/pull/21054), [mgmn](https://github.com/mastodon/mastodon/pull/24874))
+- **Change local and federated timelines to be in a single “Live feeds” column** ([ClearlyClaire](https://github.com/mastodon/mastodon/pull/25641), [Gargron](https://github.com/mastodon/mastodon/pull/25683), [mgmn](https://github.com/mastodon/mastodon/pull/25694), [Plastikmensch](https://github.com/mastodon/mastodon/pull/26247))
+- **Change user archive export to be faster and more reliable, and export `.zip` archives instead of `.tar.gz` ones** ([ClearlyClaire](https://github.com/mastodon/mastodon/pull/23360), [TheEssem](https://github.com/mastodon/mastodon/pull/25034))
+- **Change `mastodon-streaming` systemd unit files to be templated** ([e-nomem](https://github.com/mastodon/mastodon/pull/24751))
+- **Change `statsd` integration to disable sidekiq metrics by default** ([mjankowski](https://github.com/mastodon/mastodon/pull/25265), [mjankowski](https://github.com/mastodon/mastodon/pull/25336), [ClearlyClaire](https://github.com/mastodon/mastodon/pull/26310))
+  This deprecates `statsd` support and disables the sidekiq integration unless `STATSD_SIDEKIQ` is set to `true`.
+  This is because the `nsa` gem is unmaintained, and its sidekiq integration is known to add very significant overhead.
+  Later versions of Mastodon will have other ways to get the same metrics.
+- **Change replica support to native Rails adapter** ([krainboltgreene](https://github.com/mastodon/mastodon/pull/25693), [Gargron](https://github.com/mastodon/mastodon/pull/25849), [Gargron](https://github.com/mastodon/mastodon/pull/25874), [Gargron](https://github.com/mastodon/mastodon/pull/25851), [Gargron](https://github.com/mastodon/mastodon/pull/25977), [ClearlyClaire](https://github.com/mastodon/mastodon/pull/26074), [ClearlyClaire](https://github.com/mastodon/mastodon/pull/26326), [ClearlyClaire](https://github.com/mastodon/mastodon/pull/26386))
+  This is a breaking change, dropping `makara` support, and requiring you to update your database configuration if you are using replicas.
+  To tell Mastodon to use a read replica, you can either set the `REPLICA_DB_NAME` environment variable (along with `REPLICA_DB_USER`, `REPLICA_DB_PASS`, `REPLICA_DB_HOST`, and `REPLICA_DB_PORT`, if they differ from the primary database), or the `REPLICA_DATABASE_URL` environment variable if your configuration is based on `DATABASE_URL`.
