@github-actions github-actions released this 11 Jul 22:34

What's new

  • Test my mic: a live A/B window with your raw mic and the cleaned output side by side as scrolling spectrograms, plus a 10-second record/replay with measured background-noise and voice-retention numbers. (No display for it? An audio-only record-and-playback test runs instead.)
  • Desktop notifications when something fails, so a broken install or a mic that won't come back tells you on screen, not just in a terminal.
  • Branded tray icons with live status (active / off / error), an About window, and hushmic --version.

Fixes

  • Installing on immutable / ostree distros (Bazzite, Silverblue, Kinoite, SteamOS) now fails fast with real options instead of a cryptic read-only error (#2).
  • Hardening found in cross-distro testing: no crash on hushmic --version | head, --enable-once waits for the mic to actually register, crash-safe config and autostart writes, and the tray no longer loses the autostart race on Cinnamon.

Compatibility — x86-64, glibc 2.35+ (Ubuntu 22.04, Debian 12, and newer). Tested this release on Ubuntu 22.04, Debian 12, Linux Mint 22.1, Fedora Kinoite, and Arch.

Upgrading — re-download the AppImage, apt install the new .deb, or re-run the install script; your ~/.config/hushmic settings are kept.

Verify — each artifact's SHA-256 is in sha256sums.txt below; the install script checks it automatically.
