bubo 0.8.5

This release is about a calmer screen: fewer things competing for attention, a
settings tab that actually explains an update, and a compact mode that reads
like a conversation.

What's new

  • Updates tab: updates moved out of System into their own settings tab. When
    a new version is available, the card now shows the actual changes from the
    release notes instead of the raw Markdown body.
  • Floating learning actions: new chat, history, progress and practice float
    in a small pill under the bubo title, so the header stays a single row.
  • Appearance in System: message text size and theme now live in the System
    tab, next to the behavior settings. The settings tabs wrap instead of hiding
    tabs behind a horizontal scroll.
  • Slimmer scrollbars: a global scrollbar style with a small thumb and a
    wider invisible hit area, plus contained overscroll so the chat does not
    bounce.
  • Compact mode: your messages sit on the right and bubo on the left, like
    the full chat, and the mascot is larger.
  • Beginner challenge fixed: bubo no longer asks you to repeat an English
    phrase it just showed you. When you ask how to say something, it still gives
    a hint first and keeps the answer hidden.
