Good news everyone!
Some of you kind folks were reaching out to us with requests and it seems like we'll be delivering on quite a few things we've promised to look into. Just one glance at the release notes shows a substantial list of entries in the New-category. Most of which should look more or less familiar to many of you.
As such, the main focus for this VU could be summarized as improving usability with a sprinkle of tweaks and fixes. But as always, it's up to you lot to pass the final judgement on whether this update is a blessing from heaven or paving the road to hell
