Release v0.2.3

Special thanks to @jpberlips for identifying the Wayland file-transfer issue and testing fixes!

Added

  • GNOME Wayland: runtime detection of the ClusterCut extension. Clipboard sync now starts automatically as soon as the extension is enabled (no app restart required) and pauses cleanly if the extension is disabled or crashes.
  • GNOME Wayland: file-copy sync. Copying a file in Nautilus now syncs to other peers, and files received from peers paste cleanly into Nautilus as file copies (not text).
  • GNOME: ClusterCut now reports its sync mode ("Auto", "Auto Send", "Auto Receive", "Auto Disabled") in the Background Apps list via the org.freedesktop.portal.Background portal, matching the extension's Quick Settings subtitle.
  • Optional file transfer compression — speeds up sending large text, code, or log files. Off by default; turn it on under Settings → File Transfer once all your devices are on 0.2.3 or later, since older versions can't read compressed transfers (thanks to @iuvi7 for the suggestion).

Fixed

  • Wayland (all compositors): file pastes are now advertised with both text/uri-list and x-special/gnome-copied-files, so GTK file managers recognise them as file pastes instead of plain text.

Changed

  • GNOME extension D-Bus interface bumped to app.clustercut.clustercut.Clipboard2 (extension version 3.0). An outdated extension no longer silently passes the clipboard-backend probe — the "Clipboard sync paused" notification fires until the matching extension version is installed.
  • ClusterCut no longer fetches fonts from the internet at startup, keeping the app fully self-contained on your local network (thanks to @mdunphy for the suggestion).
