The presence service would retry `/presence/update` requests every second (or immediately in tests) in case where server returns 429 (rate limit) errors. That could lead to infinite spamming (until user refreshed tab/tabs)

Currently `Topic#pm_topic_count` is a count of all personal messages tagged for a given tag. As a result, any user with access to PM tags can poll a sensitive tag to determine if a new personal message has been created using that tag even if the user does not have access to the personal message. We classify this as a minor leak in sensitive information.
With this commit, `Topic#pm_topic_count` is hidden from users by default unless the `display_personal_messages_tag_counts` site setting is enabled.
* FEATURE: allow restricting duplication in search index
This introduces the site setting `max_duplicate_search_index_terms`.
Using this number we limit the amount of duplication in our search index.
This allows us to more correctly weight title searches, so bloated posts
don't unfairly bump to the top of search results.
This feature is completely disabled by default and behind a site setting
We will experiment with it first. Note entire search index must be rebuilt
for it to take effect.

A while back the definition of TL was changed but many
areas in the codebase still use the term 'Regular user'
despite it having some implicit meaning (TL2).
See 20140905055251_rename_trust_level_badges.rb
This is necessary so MacOS Ventura (and in 2023 iOS) can use our new
default push notifications.
We still disable caching of dynamic routes on Apple devices due to it's
always being buggy there.
Partial username or name matches were shown together with metadata
matched results. This created a bad user experience because results
that look unrelated were before even partial or exact group matches.
Behavior should be very similar but the code is simplified and it should fix various bugs where the card was showing out of screen even if we had available space.
Using a shared channel with per-message permissions means that every client is updated with the channel's 'last_id', even if there are no messages available to them. Per-user channel names avoid this problem - the last_id will only be incremented when there is a message for the given user.
This commits adds a database migration to limit the user status to 100
characters, limits the user status in the UI and makes sure that the
emoji is valid.
Follow up to commit b6f75e231c.
This simplifies the crawler-linkback-list to only be a point of reference to the actual DiscussionForumPosting objects.
See "Summary page": https://developers.google.com/search/docs/advanced/structured-data/carousel?hl=en#summary-page
> [It] defines an ItemList, where each ListItem has only three properties: @type (set to ListItem), position (the position in the list), and url (the URL of a page with full details about that item).
This replaces the position declared as `#123` with the more simple version `123`.
The property position may be of type Integer or Text. A value of type Integer, or more precise of type Text which simply casts to integer, is sufficient here.
See: https://schema.org/position
In category-view the topic-list already uses this notation for the position of topics:
`<meta itemprop="position" content="123">`
When the `tags_listed_by_group` site setting is disable, we were seeing
the N+1 queries problem when multiple `CategoryTag` records are listed.
This commit fixes that by ensuring that we are not filtering through the
category `tags` association after the association has been eager loaded.
This will allow us more granular control over changing a topic status.
For example you can now force the scope to only allow closing topics in
a specific category. This means that the same scope can't be used to
re-open topics, or close topics in a different category.
* FIX: Ensure soft-deleted topics can be deleted
The topic was not found during the deletion process because it was
deleted and `@post.topic` was nil.
* DEV: Use @topic instead of finding the topic every time
This TODO is irrelevant -- in reality this has not been a
perf issue, and there is not actually an N1 here. Furthermore,
this is only used in a single plugin, not in core.
Under scenarios of extremely high load where large numbers of `Reviewable*` items are being created, it has been observed that multiple instances of the `NotifyReviewable` job may run simultaneously.
These jobs will work satisfactorily if the concurrency is limited to 1, and the different types of jobs (items reviewable by admins, vs moderators, vs particular groups, etc.) are run eventually.
This change introduces a new option to `DistributedMutex` which allows the `max_get_lock_attempts` to be specified. If the number is exceeded an error will be raised, which will cause Sidekiq to requeue the job. Sidekiq has existing logic to back-off on retry times for jobs that have failed multiple times.
The check used to be necessary because we validated the referrer too and
this bypass was a workaround a bug that is present in some browsers that
do not send the correct referrer.
When creating a group membership request, there is no character
limit on the 'reason' field. This can be potentially be used by
an attacker to create enormous amount of data in the database.

Currently we don’t have an association between reviewables and posts.
This sometimes leads to inconsistencies in the DB as a post can have
been deleted but an associated reviewable is still present.
This patch addresses this issue simply by adding a new association to
the `Post` model and by using the `dependent: :destroy` option.
This is just cleaning up a TODO I had to add more specs
to this controller -- there are more thorough tests on the
actual HashtagService class and the type-specific hashtag
classes.
