v3.5.2-beta.3 — Default-ON GPU Acceleration

on GitHub

What's Changed

GPU hardware acceleration is now enabled by default on Linux, with automatic crash recovery. The environment variable override is now synced to config for UI consistency.

✨ New Features

• Default-ON GPU acceleration — DMA-BUF hardware rendering is now enabled by default for all new Linux installs, providing a smoother UI out of the box. ~70% of Linux users (AMD GPUs) benefit immediately without any manual action
• Env var → config sync — Setting WEBKIT_DISABLE_DMABUF_RENDERER=1 now acts as a one-time import: the preference is synced to config.json so the UI toggle reflects the override and the env var is no longer needed after the first launch

🛠 Improvements

• Crash sentinel unchanged — The existing gpu_guard crash recovery mechanism works bidirectionally: if DMA-BUF causes a crash on incompatible GPUs (NVIDIA proprietary, Intel + Wayland, Raspberry Pi), the next launch automatically reverts to software rendering
• i18n — Updated all 26 locale files with default-ON framing for hint text and restart confirmation dialog
