2.6.8

big one. new tools, a download retry overhaul, and a pile of issue fixes.

new stuff

blocklist — proper artist / album / track blocklist on the watchlist page. paste a link or id, it matches the ban across your other sources, and it's enforced at the wishlist, the download queue, and manual downloads. your old discovery blacklist migrates in.
download retry overhaul (#801) — on an acoustid/integrity fail it now retries the next-best candidate, exhausts a source from cache before moving on, and switches sources instead of just quarantining. new opt-in knobs on the downloads settings.
download origins — see (and delete) exactly what your watchlist + playlist syncs pulled in, and why.
expired download cleaner — maintenance job that cleans up synced downloads past a retention window you set per origin. keeps anything you still mirror/watch or have played more than once. dry-run by default.
lyrics filler — fills missing .lrc lyrics (only flags tracks lyrics actually exist for). re-tag tool gets a lyrics option too.
youtube works out of the box now (ships the js runtime + nightly yt-dlp).

spotify daily docker de-auth fixed — tokens live in the db now (wolf39us)
#705 unreleased tracks stop burning wishlist / fresh tape cycles
#809 navidrome plays even when the library isn't mounted on disk
#767 reorganize picks the right album edition instead of mislabeling singles as deluxe
#806 cover art at native resolution + correct editions (vol.4 stops wearing vol.4.5's cover)
#804 import no longer wipes good tags into "unknown artist", no false duration-quarantines on your own files, and the import window shows the actual reason
artist pages show your full discography again (cache poisoning) + #808 missing tracks
cover-art filler: fix album or artist art independently (pache711), and read-only detection that doesn't false-block writable libraries (sokhi)
watchlist itunes-id backfill that actually works + repairs the deezer-id corruption
torrents: stalled-download handling so a dead magnet doesn't hog a worker for 6h (noldevin)
manual match by pasted musicbrainz link/id (ashh)
plus a dashboard + download/discovery modal visual pass, and a bunch of smaller fixes
