 - `hurl` has been updated to `8.x.x` which has some breaking changes. See [upstream changelog](https://github.com/Orange-OpenSource/hurl/releases/tag/8.0.0) for details.
 
+- `gotosocial` has been updated to 0.22.0. This release contains a very long database migration, which should not be cancelled or interrupted under any circumstances.
+ -  Postgres users: Following the migration, if you encounter slowdown on Postgres specifically (ie., timing out while loading timelines) you may need to run some manual database maintenance steps. Please check https://docs.gotosocial.org/en/stable/admin/database_maintenance/#postgres.

 - `xsecurelock` no longer supports authentication via htaccess files (`~/.xsecurelock.pw`) or via the `pamtester` program by default. Only the recommended PAM module is supported unless rebuilt with `withHtaccess` or `withPamtester`.
 
 - `python3Packages.django-health-check` has been updated to major version 4. See its [migration guide](https://codingjoe.dev/django-health-check/migrate-to-v4/) and [changelog](https://github.com/codingjoe/django-health-check/releases/tag/4.0.0) for breaking changes.
