A Faster Parabolic 💨💨

Beta 3 of V2024.9.0 is here!

Compared to beta 2, this release adds a new Download Immediately After Validation option to preferences and fixes an issue where the UI was not being displayed in translated languages.

We recommend uninstalling any and all previous versions of Parabolic before installing and trying this beta.

This is a beta version, bugs are expected. Please file a bug report for any issue found.
