BetterTrumpet 3.0.13

Summary

small release, big cleanup. this one smooths out first-launch weirdness, speeds up startup, and adds a couple of nicer quality-of-life touches.

startup cleanup

• the app now gets past the first-launch backdrop issue without needing a trip through settings.
• theme init timing is cleaner, so the flyout stops flashing weird on startup.
• device loading happens in the background, so the tray appears sooner and the app feels lighter.

bug fixes

• the backdrop / acrylic render issue from #13 is fixed.
• hidden device handling is more stable now.
• context menus around devices behave more consistently.

ui polish

• you can now right-click a device and choose hide this device.
• device header actions are easier to reach, including the quick default-device switch.
• menus are cleaner and less noisy overall.

cli bits

• doctor gives you a quick audio checkup.
• batch lets you chain commands in one go.
• shorthand aliases make common mute / volume actions faster to type.

bt doctor
bt batch --set-volume 67 --app discord --set-volume 30 --app vivaldi
bt volume discord 67
bt mute spotify
bt unmute chrome

under the hood

• code cleanup and structure improvements.
• better error handling and logging.
• smarter resource handling during startup.
