Some of those affected features may return later this year.

We need to focus on improving the features that people love and continue using, I hope you understand.

Deprecated Features:
- AutoSpam*
- COSTAR
- Embeds*
- Groups
- Live Streaming
- Parental Controls*
- Polls

* - Planned for re-release

Pixelfed is not only for new photos. I often find a good photo in my library and wonder if I’ve put it on Pixelfed

I hope Groups makes a return in the future, because the concept has excellent potential but needs to be visible and usable!

Where/how? I don't see it in 0.12.7. Are some of these features unused because people just don't know about them?
