This release builds further upon the 7.2 release series. You may want to check the previous changelogs if you're updating from an older version to see what's new.

UI/UX

  • added loading screen wait for first appstream catalog load
  • now stores last window size and maximized state, opening next time in that size/state

Backend

  • now prefers native packages for Solus whenever the flathub package is non-verified
  • optimized drawing featured cards in main menu
  • added debounce for window resizing calculations - improves the app's responsiveness to window resizing tremendously
  • appstream catalog is now pickled for faster processing on startup
  • apps within categories now materialize lazily when scrolling down
  • moved privilege escalation requests within functions that require it - askpass should be called in scripts only when actually necessary now

Fixes

  • fix: edge case on search view causing categories to be perceived as scripts
  • fix: featured section drawing regression
  • fix: app pages not returning from maximized state correctly
  • fix: app page featured section inconsistencies
  • fix: #1346, #1350, #1351
