⚠️ Important Notes

Attention! This beta 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. Although we have extendedly tested this new feature for the past weeks in the nightly builds, there is always a chance we missed something. Always ensure you have a backup before updating! If you may run into any unexpected issues, please reach out on the support issue tracker on Github or on the discord server.
