v0.7.40 Pre-Release

Lemmy v0.7.40 Pre-Release (2020-08-05)

We've added a lot in this pre-release:

• New post sorts Active (previously called hot), and Hot. Active shows posts with recent comments, hot shows highly ranked posts.
• Customizeable site icon and banner, user icon and banner, and community icon and banner.
• Added user preferred names / display names, bios, and cakedays.
• User settings are now shared across browsers (a page refresh will pick up changes).
• Visual / Audio captchas through the lemmy API.
• Lots of UI prettiness.
• Lots of bug fixes.
• Lots of additional translations.
• Lots of federation prepping / additions / refactors.

This release removes the need for you to have a pictrs nginx route (the requests are now routed through lemmy directly). Follow the upgrade instructions below to replace your nginx with the new one.
