Announcements

Announcements are one of the features available in Misskey.

Using the announcement feature, you can post server-wide announcements to users, as well as send messages from the server to individual users.

Warning

A large number of active announcements can cause a poor user experience, due to excessive confirmation prompts, especially for new users. The following options should be considered:

  • Create an announcement with the "Existing Users Only" option enabled
  • Create an announcement with the "do not notify" option enabled
  • Archive closed announcements.

Display format

You can select from the following types of display formats.

  • Normal ... Announcements will be posted on the Announcements page.
  • Banner ... In addition to appearing on the announcements page a banner will appear at the top of the user's screen.
  • Dialog ... In addition to being posted on the announcements page it will also appear as a modal dialog when the user opens the site.
    • It is recommended that you proceed with caution when there are two or more dialog-type announcements at the same time, as they are very likely to adversely affect the UX.
