v0.25.0 Beta

[efb4f5ff-1298-471a-8973-3d47447115dc]

Summary

This release brings a number of new features along with plenty of bug fixes.

Behind the scenes, we're continuing to focus on improving SABR's stability and reliability. Reverse engineering YouTube's custom protocol is a complex and time-consuming process, but it's an investment that will pay off with a more robust experience in future releases.

Important

In v0.26.0, support for macOS 12 will be dropped, and ARMv7l builds will no longer be provided as a result of upgrading to Electron v44.0.0.
