What's new

  • Welcome intro: after installing, night falls over the desktop, a few words rise letter by letter and the moon logo draws itself in. Take a look opens your desktop up again from the moon
  • Settings tour: right after the intro, Settings lights up one part at a time with a short explanation (Next, Skip, Done). Play it again with rice-welcome tour, the whole intro with rice-welcome show
  • Moving logo on the Settings Home page: the moon floats and sways, the stars twinkle, a shooting star now and then
  • Change your profile picture by clicking it in the sidebar

Fixes

  • Notifications: no more red bell, a white bell with a small badge instead. DarkShadow's Shell notifications stay in the notification center when clicked
  • Screenshots are saved faster, and the dashboard and hot corner stay open while you take one
  • Hot corner: an even outline along the rounded corners, the cards inside match the panel corners
  • Fedora: Quickshell from its official COPR, rofi on Fedora 43, matugen downloaded when Fedora has no package
