Everything since 2.5.0: 104 commits and 30 merged pull requests from thirteen people. 2.6.0 and 2.6.1 were versioned but never published, so their changes ship here too.

Mac side: re-run blip-setup so imsg on the Mac picks up the pin fix, UTC timestamps, Send Later and multi-file messages.

New in 2.6.2

  • A pinned group whose id changed stays in Favorites. Blip now resolves the pin the way Messages does (chat_lookup).
  • Turning the only monitor off no longer crashes Hyprland (#113, @followbl).
  • One wheel notch scrolls one notch, not half a screen (#114, @gjouret). scroll_gain= in bridge.conf slows wheels whose single click sends several notches; an MX Master 4 is happy at 0.25.
  • Opt-in glide for wheel notches: smooth_scroll=on (#115, @gjouret).

From 2.6.0 and 2.6.1

  • Security codes fill themselves beside the field, including in Zen and Firefox (otp_autofill=on).
  • Save an unknown sender as a contact.
  • Reading a group in Blip can clear it on your phone too, and a read push only reports done when the Mac agrees.
  • Right-click a message to quote or copy it. GIFs move. A message can carry several files. Send Later shows as Scheduled.
  • prefer_imessage=on keeps mixed 1:1s on iMessage (#96, @badenpiland), and Blip's own last send no longer turns a blue thread green.
  • Waking the laptop no longer replays the night's messages as toasts. One never-opened unread no longer slows every poll (#98, @ianswope).
  • Multi-monitor: the popout opens on the screen you clicked, SUPER+CTRL+<n> works there, and a moved window stays put (#109, #110, @joshhattan).
  • Time crosses the bridge as UTC, so marks and dividers survive time zones and DST (#80–#84, @zachwilke).
  • bin_dir= moves every shim. Super+M no longer closes the wrong window.

Thank you
