Synapse 1.59.0rc2 (2022-05-16)

==============================

Synapse 1.59 makes several changes that server administrators should be aware of:

- Device name lookup over federation is now disabled by default. ([\#12616](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/12616))
- The `synapse.app.appservice` and `synapse.app.user_dir` worker application types are now deprecated. ([\#12452](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/12452), [\#12654](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/12654))

See [the upgrade notes](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/blob/develop/docs/upgrade.md#upgrading-to-v1590) for more details.

Additionally, this release removes the non-standard `m.login.jwt` login type from Synapse. It can be replaced with `org.matrix.login.jwt` for identical behaviour. This is only used if `jwt_config.enabled` is set to `true` in the configuration. ([\#12597](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/12597))

Bugfixes
--------

- Fix a bug introduced in Synapse 1.58.0 where `/sync` would fail if the most recent event in a room was rejected. ([\#12729](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/12729))
