Highlights

Downloader 1.5.0 brings plugin-powered downloads, a cleaner Plugins page, and a batch of macOS/queue/UX fixes.

✨ New

  • Download straight from a GitHub repo link — paste a github.com/owner/repo URL and Downloader fetches the latest release asset for your operating system (powered by the bundled GitHub Releases plugin).
  • Remove plugins right from the Plugins page with a single click.

🐛 Fixes

  • macOS: alerts now arrive as system notifications while the app sits in the tray, instead of invisible in-app toasts.
  • Queues: a queue you just added shows up in the Start/Stop queue menus immediately — no restart needed.
  • Long file names are fully readable on hover.
  • Comboboxes have proper inner padding, the Failed filter no longer lists stopped downloads, and expired/invalid links get a clear message instead of a confusing failure.

🔧 Under the hood

  • More reliable cross-platform test runs, and the bundled sample plugin now loads correctly on every OS.
