A collection of bugfixes and improvements for you! Mostly around how we handle HTTP signatures and other such fun stuff that ideally you lot never have to think about

check [Making sure you're not a bot!](https://akkoma.dev/AkkomaGang/akkoma/src/branch/develop/CHANGELOG.md#2025-10) for our full list of changes, but honestly nothing flashy this time around

purely improvements, bugfixes and things that will make your life easier.

the updated version is 3.16.0!

## Updating

Is per usual!

See [Updating your instance - Akkoma Documentation](https://docs.akkoma.dev/stable/administration/updating/)

I do sudo -su akkoma all the time but I get “could not lock config file .git/config: Permission denied”

and

you may have run it with the wrong user at some point

`sudo chown akkoma: . -R` should rectify any latent permissions issues

Update went without issues. Glad to see ARM OTP builds too (probably existed for a while, I haven’t exactly kept up…), switched over from a source install now. Thanks for your work!
