New Features

  • Polls! (MSC3381) are now rendered in the timeline. You can vote, create one with /poll, and end them.
  • Display live location sharing (MSC3489) in a card in the timeline.
  • Galleries! (MSC4274) can be sent and viewed. The media viewer was updated to display several media items.
  • Fonts faces and sizes can be customized under Appearance / Fonts.
  • The room list now has a compact mode with a smaller avatar and no last message preview. Hovering a row displays the last message.
  • Media files / documents can be opened with the OS default viewer (enable it in Settings / Media, or use the 'open in default viewer' in the media viewer).
  • Open the settings from the login view, in case you need to set up a proxy to login.
  • The default homeserver can be provisioned. The only implemented way (so far) is launching the NSIS installer with /DEFAULT_HOMESERVER=.
  • Added Norwegian Bokmål and Ukrainian translations.

Improvements

  • Unified the old image / media viewers into a generic viewer.
  • Bubbles layout can now display the user's own name and avatar (enable it in Appearance / Layout)
  • The call lobby disables the join button if the user has no permission to start a call.
  • The room list and quick switcher does not display tombstoned rooms anymore.
  • A cancelled verification now shows a proper message instead of Matrix protocol text.

Fixes

  • Fixes in the in-memory image cache pruning should decrease memory usage a little bit.
  • Improved the look of searchable pickers, and added selected option focus and scrolling.
  • Added a flag to always recompress sent media (this was the default, now you can disable it). Animated images are not recompressed anymore. Metadata is always stripped (except rotation).
  • The offline banner says "Can't reach the server" when you have a network but the homeserver is down, instead of "No internet connection".
  • Joining a call should work if you don't have permissions to start calls.
  • Joining a call room no longer rings the other members.
  • Calls with several speakers or screen-share audio no longer sound distorted.
  • Fixed the sticker picker animations not working properly if there was another animated image on screen.
  • Fixed mentions in replies not being sent as real mentions.
  • Fixed OSM links for locales using a decimal comma instead of a dot.
  • Reply quotes of messages with code no longer draw past the quote card on Qt6.
  • Linux: fixed mouse-wheel scrolling speed again on Wayland with Qt 6.12.
  • Windows: avatar initials use the bundled color emoji font.
