It's finally September, and Fall has just begun 🍂.

Sophie continues to evolve, and today we've incorporated several small changes based on our work over the past few weeks.

In addition to the usual bug fixes, I've implemented Beta testing changes that will slightly speed up Sophie when the Stable instance is in use. I've also added the Federation creator ID display in the /finfo command.

We've also updated the dependencies to ensure everything is up-to-date.
Including the in-house developed libraries:

- https://gitlab.com/SophieBot/stf

Unfortunately, due to a race condition, Sophie sent crash messages for half a minute after deployment. This issue should now be resolved, so please delete the crash messages.

This update were deployed both for Beta and Stable modes.

Today I fixed a few federation issues:

1. Fixed the race condition between welcome/welcome security and federation ban. Now Sophie won't greet federally banned users, preventing them from passing the captcha and temporarily unbanning themselves until their next join.
2. Fixed formatting issues in the federation ban message.
3. Fixed the display of the federation creator's ID in /finfo.

Additionally the /id <user> command now uses the band-new users/arguments getting code and formatting engine, after the initial testing, we're going to extend it for other commands as well.

I've also updated dependencies to ensure that version numbers increased, allowing me to say that "We're following the latest industry trends".
This update was deployed for both Beta and Stable modes.
Enjoy.
