reverse proxy. Please see [UPGRADE.rst](UPGRADE.rst#upgrading-to-v1290) for more \ 
details on this change.

No significant changes.

Synapse 1.29.0rc1 (2021-03-04)
==============================

Features
--------

- Add rate limiters to cross-user key sharing requests. \ 
([\#8957](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/8957))
- Add `order_by` to the admin API `GET \ 
/_synapse/admin/v1/users/<user_id>/media`. Contributed by @dklimpel. \ 
([\#8978](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/8978))
- Add some configuration settings to make users' profile data more private. \ 
([\#9203](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/9203))
- The `no_proxy` and `NO_PROXY` environment variables are now respected in \ 
proxied HTTP clients with the lowercase form taking precedence if both are \ 
present. Additionally, the lowercase `https_proxy` environment variable is now \ 
respected in proxied HTTP clients on top of existing support for the uppercase \ 
`HTTPS_PROXY` form and takes precedence if both are present. Contributed by \ 
Timothy Leung. ([\#9372](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/9372))
- Add a configuration option, `user_directory.prefer_local_users`, which when \ 
enabled will make it more likely for users on the same server as you to appear \ 
above other users. ([\#9383](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/9383), \ 
[\#9385](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/9385))
- Add support for regenerating thumbnails if they have been deleted but the \ 
original image is still stored. \ 
([\#9438](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/9438))
- Add support for `X-Forwarded-Proto` header when using a reverse proxy. \ 
([\#9472](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/9472), \ 
[\#9501](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/9501), \
