- Prevent duplicate messages from showing up in the timeline.
- Fix crash when pasting image from clipboard on macOS.
- Settings toggles don't get stuck anymore. (contributed by kirillpt)
- Fix some emojis being rendered as two emoji.
- Fix SSO login on some servers that allow multiple login methods. (contributed by d42)
### For packagers
- Nheko now depends on QtKeychain.
- Nheko optionally depends on GStreamer for VOIP.
- Nheko does not depend on Sodium anymore.
- Minimum OpenSSL version is now 1.1.
### Highlights
- Reactions
- React to a message with an emoji! 🎉
- Reactions are shown below a message in a small bubble with a counter.
- By clicking on that, others can add to the reaction count.
- It may help you celebrating a new Nheko Release or react with a 👎 to a failed build to express your frustration.
- This uses a new emoji picker. The picker will be improved in the near future (better scrolling, sections, favorites, recently used or similar) and then probably replace the current picker.
- Support for tagging rooms `[tag]`
- Assign custom tags to rooms from the context menu in the room list.
- This allows filtering rooms via the group list. This puts you in a focus mode showing only the selected tags.
- You can assign multiple tags to group rooms however you like.
- SSO Login
- With this you can now login on servers, that only provide SSO.
- Just enter any mxid on the server. Nheko will figure out that you need to use SSO and redirect your browser to the login page.
- Complete the login in your browser and Nheko should automatically log you in.
- Presence
- Shows online status of the people you are talking to.
- You can define a custom status message to tell others what you are currently up to.
- The status message appears next to the usernames in the timeline.
- Your server needs to have presence enabled for this to work.
### Features
- Respect exif rotation of images
- An italian translation (contributed by Lorenzo Ancora)
- Optional alerts in your taskbar (contributed by z33ky)
- Optional bigger emoji only messages in the timeline (contributed by lkito)
- Optional hover feedback on messages (contributed by lkito)
- `/roomnick` to change your displayname in a single room.
- Preliminary support for showing inline images.
- Warn about unencrypted messages in encrypted rooms.
### Improvements
- perf: Use less CPU to sort the room list.
- Limit size of replies. This currently looks a bit rough, but should improve in the future with a gradient or at some other transition.
- perf: Only clean out old messages from the database every 500 syncs. (There is usually more than one sync every second)
- Improve the login and register masks a bit with hints and validation.
- Descriptions for settings (contributed by lkito)
- A visual indicator, that nheko is fetching messages and improved scrolling (contributed by Lasath Fernando)
### Bugfixes
- Fix not being able to join rooms
- Fix scale factor setting
- Buildfixes against gcc10 and Qt5.15 (missing includes)
- Settings now apply immediately again after changing them (only exception should be the scale factor)
- Join messages should never have empty texts now
- Timeline should now fail to render less often on platforms with native sibling windows.
- Don't rescale images on every frame on highdpi screens.
