Hot! Hot! Hot! No, we are not talking about the summer weather in the northern hemisphere, but about the brand new release of Fractal 12.beta! Coming soon to your device:
- The safety setting to hide media previews in rooms is now synced between Matrix clients.
- We added another safety setting (which is also synced) to hide avatars in invites.
- A room can be marked as unread via the context menu in the sidebar.
- We changed the UX a little for tombstoned rooms. Instead of showing a banner at the top of the history, it now replaces the composer at the bottom of the history.
- You can now see if a section in the sidebar has any notifications or activity when it is collapsed.
As usual, this release includes other improvements, fixes and new translations thanks to all our contributors, and our upstream projects.
It is available to install via Flathub Beta, see the instructions in our README.
As the version implies, there might be a slight risk of regressions, but it should be mostly stable. If all goes well the next step is the release candidate!
If you are wondering how to lower the temperature in your house, there is nothing cooler than fixing one of our newcomers issues!
