Building Better Communities: What's Coming in v1.32.x
The 1.32.x series of updates is all about giving community builders and users the tools they actually need to make Tavrn feel like home.
Here’s what’s coming.
What We Just Shipped (v1.32.0) 📦
Let’s start with what’s already live:
Server Tools:
- Custom emojis (up to 50 per server)
- Server onboarding flows
- Room rules and guidelines
- Welcome and goodbye messages
- Channel banner images
User Features:
- Last.fm integration with now playing status
- Brand new emoji picker
- Redesigned home page
- Channel unread status
- Improved account connections display
These are foundational. They give server owners the basics to build real communities and give users better ways to express themselves.
But we’re just getting started.
What’s Coming in 1.32.x Updates 🧭
The 1.32.x series is focused on community building and user experience. Here’s what’s on the roadmap:

Server discovery improvements (AHA!) - Better ways for users to find communities they’ll actually enjoy.
Better Moderation Tools
Auto-moderation improvements - Smarter filters for spam, links, and unwanted content.
Mod logs - Track moderation actions in a centralized log so your team stays coordinated.
Slow mode - Rate limit how often users can send messages in specific channels.
Timeout system - Temporary mutes without permanent bans.
Report queue improvements - Better tools for moderators to review and act on user reports.

Why These Features Matter 🧡
Other platforms add features to increase engagement metrics and ad revenue. We’re adding features because you’re actually asking for them.
Every item on this list came from:
- Feedback in The Commons
- Messages through the in-app feedback form
- Requests on social media
- Observations from how people are actually using Tavrn
We’re not guessing what communities need. We’re listening.
The Timeline (Honest Version) 📅
We’re not going to promise specific dates for specific features.
What we will promise:
- Every 1.32.x update will include community/user improvements alongside bug fixes and polish
- We’re prioritizing based on what we hear most often from server owners and users
- Some features will ship faster than others depending on complexity
- We’ll keep you updated through changelogs, blog posts, and announcements in The Commons
Public beta means we move fast. But we also want to ship things that actually work, not half-baked features that create more problems than they solve.
We Need Your Input 💬
Here’s the thing: your feedback directly shapes what gets built and when.
If a feature on this list matters to you, tell us. If something’s missing from this list, tell us that too.
Two ways to share feedback:
- Join The Commons - our official community server where we hang out and gather feedback
- Use the in-app feedback form - Settings > App Info (scroll to the bottom)
The more we hear about what you need, the better we can prioritize.
Community First, Always 🛠️
Tavrn exists because we wanted something better than what’s out there.
Better privacy. Better features. Better respect for users.
But “better” doesn’t mean much if communities can’t actually build on Tavrn. If moderators don’t have the tools they need. If users can’t personalize their experience.
The 1.32.x updates are about closing that gap.
We’re giving community builders the power to create spaces people actually want to be in. We’re giving users the tools to make Tavrn feel like theirs.
And we’re doing it without surveillance, without data selling, without treating you like a product.
What Happens Next ✨
We keep building. We keep listening. We keep shipping.
The features listed here aren’t promises, they’re plans. Plans that will change based on what you tell us matters most.
So use Tavrn. Build communities. Customize your profile. Try the new server tools.
And tell us what’s missing. Tell us what’s broken. Tell us what could be better.
We’re building this with you, not just for you. 🧡
