Hi all,

I am happy to announce the release of links 0.5.0.

https://git.code.netlandish.com/~netlandish/links/refs/0.5.0

Release highlights:

# Added

- Ability to hide spammers or seo farms from the recent or popular pages.
- Pinboard API to GraphQL bridge

# Fixed

- No longer showing empty ordering options on pages that don't support it.
- URL jumping up with description when description is too short. Happens on saved bookmark listing pages.
- Issue with encoding email subject lines when pulled from a template file.
- Issue saving tags longer than 50 chars (not allowed)
- No longer using regexp to parse null entries from json (no clue wtf we were thinking there)
- Issue where tag characters can cause PostgreSQL to return errors. Also limit tag queries to tag name limit (50).
- tag autocomplete issues with selection and navigation using the keyboard.

# Changed

- How `BaseURL.UpdateCounter` works. Now uses a subselect to set proper count
- Now will alwyas call `UpdateCounter` when calling the `updateLink` mutation. This addresses a small counter bug / edge case.
- Links to external sites will now have rel="nofollow" to help avoid the site from becoming a spam haven.
- No more leading hash marks in tag names
- Only show save count when the URL has been publicly saved more than once.
