Changes since last release

From CHANGELOG.md, 2026-10-03:

Transparent window (thanks @mike-899, #262)

• New add_feature_window_transparency: Settings -> Extra -> Community
  Features -> Transparent window (or "windowTransparency": true) opens the
  main window see-through; "windowOpacity" (0.1-1, default 0.8) sets how much
  of the sidebar and chat surfaces stays opaque. Blur behind the window is the
  compositor's job. Applies on the next start and needs the integrated titlebar.
• A transparent window has no window buttons and no shadow: close and maximize
  through the window manager and resize from the outermost few pixels. On X11
  a compositor must be running. Works best on tiling compositors.
