For more details, see the full changelog and milestone.

This is a patch release addressing two regressions found in v4.5.0: identd forwarding stopped working and large sqlite databases could cause slow startup times. On the developer side, we've modernized our stack from webpack to Vite and removed unnecessary dependencies; build times and bundle sizes have been greatly reduced.
