LinkRoom Desktop v0.1.1 UX Polish

This release improves the first MVP based on real user testing.

Changes

  • Added a bottom-left voice control bar for mute, deafen, screen share, and disconnect
  • Moved voice controls closer to the channel sidebar for a more Discord-like layout
  • Added connected voice participants under the active voice channel
  • Fixed deafen behavior so undeafening restores microphone state correctly
  • Replaced the active deafen icon with a headphones-off style icon
  • Added screen share expand/collapse and fullscreen support where available
  • Added output volume control in audio settings
  • Added input volume control for microphone test level scaling
  • Improved consecutive message grouping in chat
  • Fixed text chat scrolling so older messages can be viewed
  • Fixed group sidebar create/join icon alignment
  • Added basic member profile card popover
  • Improved profile card sizing and viewport positioning

Known limitations

  • Input volume does not apply real microphone gain yet; it currently affects mic test level display only
  • Remote deafen state is not shown for other users because LiveKit does not expose local deafen state to remote participants by default
  • No auto-updater yet
  • No system tray yet
  • No message edit/delete yet
  • No file uploads yet
  • Desktop app must be rebuilt if the backend URL changes
