This pre-release keeps pushing ZoiteChat toward the 2.18 stable release, with the biggest work centered on GTK3 theming, UI polish, and platform fixes.

What’s new

  • Major GTK3 theming overhaul with improved theme importing, inheritance, rollback safety, and caching.
  • Theme settings are now merged into Appearance, with a new Advanced section.
  • Added a full color editor and improved mapping for widgets, chat text, userlist colors, and tabs.
  • Added colors.conf import support and improved compatibility with older themes.
  • Improved chat background image handling and now uses a native file picker.
  • Bundled more built-in icons, including OK/Cancel, improved emoji fallback, and refreshed some button/icon styling.
  • Embedded the app SVG icon and improved headerbar icon handling.
  • Manual addons now persist properly by being copied into the user addon directory.
  • Updated servlist.c to remove dead servers and added a checker script.

Fixes

  • Fixed KDE Wayland alert flashing.
  • Fixed tray hide/restore labels staying in sync with the real window state.
  • Fixed several GTK3 styling issues, including imported CSS cleanup, warning noise, and tab/userlist color problems.
  • Removed menubar icons and simplified Away menu behavior.
  • Improved Flatpak behavior on KDE and fixed Python/Perl plugin support.
  • F9 Segment Fault crash regression fixed
  • CTRL+A causing

Note

This is still a pre-release, so a few theming edge cases are still being worked out.
Better, cleaner, and less annoying though. Which is basically the dream.
