music-assistant/server 2.8.0

on GitHub

⚠️ Important Notes

Attention! This release contains a big change in the way we let you interact with players that support multiple protocols. These will be merged into one single player, greatly improving the UX. If you are using Home Assistant, this could result in entities being renamed that will break automations and/or dashboards.
