+## Release v5.22 - [Feature Release](https://docs.mattermost.com/process/release-faq.html#release-overview)
+
+**Release day: 2020-04-16**
+
+### Compatibility
+
+ - v5.9.0 as our Extended Support Release (ESR) has come to the end of its lifecycle. v5.19.0 will continue to be our current existing ESR until October 15, 2020. [Learn more in our forum post](https://forum.mattermost.org/t/upcoming-extended-support-release-updates/8526).
+
+### Breaking Changes
+
+ - Due to fixing performance issues related to emoji reactions, the performance of the upgrade has been affected in that the schema upgrade now takes more time in environments with lots of reactions in their database. These environments are recommended to perform the schema migration during low usage times and potentially in advance of the upgrade. Since this migration happens before the Mattermost Server is fully launched, non-High Availability installs will be unreachable during this time.
+ - The Channel Moderation Settings feature is supported on mobile app versions v1.30 and later. In earlier versions of the mobile app, users who attempt to post or react to posts without proper permissions will see an error.
+ - Direct access to the ``Props`` field in the ``model.Post`` structure has been deprecated. The available ``GetProps()`` and ``SetProps()`` methods should now be used. Also, direct copy of the ``model.Post`` structure must be avoided in favor of the provided ``Clone()`` method.
+
+**IMPORTANT:** If you upgrade from a release earlier than 5.21, please read the other [Important Upgrade Notes](https://docs.mattermost.com/administration/important-upgrade-notes.html).
+
+### Highlights
+
+#### Channel moderation settings and read-only channels (E20) (Beta)

+ - Added the ability for users to restore archived channels via the Mattermost interface.
