Rspamd 4.3 fixes SPF evaluation order and rejects weak DKIM keys, with results that change.
A side-by-side editorial comparison of Gallabox and Misskey — release velocity, themes, recent moves, and the top alternatives to consider.
WhatsApp-first CX tool expands into new channels and AI-built bots.
Gallabox is a WhatsApp Business messaging and CX platform that is broadening from a single-channel tool into a multi-channel inbox with AI automation. Recent releases add Voice and Instagram DMs as channels while leaning into AI-authored chatbots and team-routing features.
Misskey 2026.11 ships: a leaner start script, and Node.js 22 no longer boots.
Misskey 2026.11.0 is out after an alpha, two betas and a release candidate in a week. The new start script stops extra processes from staying resident, saving about 50MB per server on the official Docker image, which uses it automatically. Node.js v22 support ends, the minimum is now 24.22.3 or 26.13.1, and NODE_OPTIONS paths now resolve from the repository root. Smaller changes include better display of Mastodon quotes and an autoplay setting for URL previews.
Gallabox is a WhatsApp Business messaging and CX platform that is broadening from a single-channel tool into a multi-channel inbox with AI automation. Recent releases add Voice and Instagram DMs as channels while leaning into AI-authored chatbots and team-routing features.
The product is heading toward an omnichannel conversation hub where WhatsApp remains the anchor but Voice, Instagram, and AI bots reduce reliance on any one surface. Much of the changelog also tracks Meta's pricing changes, which shape how customers use broadcasts.
Expect Voice and Instagram to graduate from early access/waitlist to general availability, and deeper AI-bot tooling that turns plain-language instructions into deployable agents.

Misskey's last two cycles are about making servers cheaper and safer to run: tighter Sentry data-collection defaults in 2026.10, lower memory and newer Node versions in 2026.11. Each one carries a breaking requirement that admins must check before upgrading.
Expect 2026.11.x patch releases for upgrade problems, especially around custom NODE_OPTIONS and systemd units. The entries do not show what the next feature cycle will target.
