## [4.2.0] - 2023-09-21
The following changelog entries focus on changes visible to users, administrators, client developers or federated software developers, but there has also been a lot of code modernization, refactoring, and tooling work, in particular by [@danielmbrasil](https://github.com/danielmbrasil), [@mjankowski](https://github.com/mjankowski), [@nschonni](https://github.com/nschonni), [@renchap](https://github.com/renchap), and [@takayamaki](https://github.com/takayamaki).
This introduces a new `public_statuses` Elasticsearch index for public posts by users who have opted in to their posts being searchable (`toot#indexable` flag).
This also revisits the other indexes to provide more useful indexing, and adds new search operators such as `from:me`, `before:2022-11-01`, `after:2022-11-01`, `during:2022-11-01`, `language:fr`, `has:poll`, or `in:library` (for searching only in posts you have written or interacted with).
Results are now ordered chronologically.
