For the best experience install Noto Sans CJK JP and Kanji Stroke Order fonts. The default font has changed from Noto Sans JP to Noto Sans CJK JP. You should install this new font if you haven't already.
Important: Updating to this version will clear out your existing Interface settings, Dictionary order, Search Modifier, and Custom Open File location. Be prepared to set these again.
What Happened?
This version of Memento is almost a complete rewrite that moves from Qt Widgets to Qt Quick. The entire application is now rendered on the GPU instead of the CPU. For Windows users especially this translates to massive performance gains.
Special thanks to @eyalmazuz for all the work he did testing.

- This is Microsoft's fault as far as I can tell. Any OpenGL application that enters fullscreen will do this and break HDR if you're using it. Memento fixes this by using borderless fullscreen and making the height of the window 1 pixel larger than your screen. Maybe Microsoft can fix OpenGL for Windows 27 SP3.

- The menubar is now always shown in fullscreen and the bug that caused this no longer exists
