+Redbot 3.5.8 (2024-04-01)
+=========================
+
+| Thanks to all these amazing people that contributed to this release:
+| :ghuser:`aikaterna`, :ghuser:`Flame442`, :ghuser:`Jackenmen`, :ghuser:`Kreusada`, :ghuser:`TrustyJAID`
+
+Read before updating
+--------------------
+
+#. Server-wide mutes in the Mutes cog can no longer be performed using channel permissions (overrides). Instead, the cog will now use Discord's native server timeout functionality when a mute role is not set. Role mutes and channel-specific mutes are not affected.
+
+    Red 3.5.7 and lower allowed usage of channel permissions (overrides) for server-wide mutes when ``[p]muteset forcerole`` setting was explicitly disabled and no mute role was set for the server. This behavior is no longer available and now, when mute role is not set, server-wide mutes will be performed using Discord's native server timeouts.
+
+    If you were one of the few users that chose to use channel permissions (overrides) for server-wide mutes, please note that the existing server mutes will now be considered channel-specific mutes and can only be removed with ``[p]channelunmute`` (and will be automatically removed after timeout elapses, if they have one set). If you want to quickly remove all channel-specific mutes (that were previously server-wide mutes) for a user, you can use the hidden ``[p]forceunmute <user>`` command that has been provided to ease the migration.
+
+#. Information for Audio users that are using an external Lavalink instance (if you don't know what that is, you should skip this point):
+
+    Red 3.5.8 uses a new Lavalink jar that you will need to manually update from `our GitHub <https://github.com/Cog-Creators/Lavalink-Jars/releases/tag/3.7.11%2Bred.2>`__.
