We're excited to announce the release of [Fedify 1.4.0]! This release brings significant improvements to enhance compatibility and flexibility in #ActivityPub federation. [Fedify 1.4.0]: https://github.com/fedify-dev/fedify/releases/tag/1.4.0 ## Key Highlights ### [Activity transformers] Introduced a new system to adjust outgoing activities for better compatibility with various ActivityPub implementations. This includes [automatic ID assignment for activities] and [actor dehydration] to satisfy implementation quirks (looking at you, Threads!).

[`mapAlias()`]: https://fedify.dev/manual/actor#actor-aliases ### New interaction collections Added support for `shares`, `likes`, and `emojiReactions` properties to the `Object` class, making it easier to access and traverse these interaction collections. ### More flexible document/context loader [Document loader] and [context loader] are now configurable through factory functions, giving you more control over how your application handles JSON-LD documents.
