<description>
|
||
<p>Fractal 5.beta1 is the first beta release since the rewrite of
|
||
Fractal to take advantage of GTK 4 and the Matrix Rust SDK. It is the
|
||
result of over two years of work.</p>
|
||
|
||
<p>New features since Fractal 5.alpha1:</p>
|
||
<ul>
|
||
<li>Joining room by ID, by alias or with a Matrix URI</li>
|
||
<li>Creation of direct chats</li>
|
||
<li>Sending and displaying read receipts, read markers and typing
|
||
notifications</li>
|
||
<li>Notifications on new messages</li>
|
||
<li>Highlight messages with mentions</li>
|
||
<li>Added media file history viewers in the room details, thanks to
|
||
our GSoC intern Marco Melorio</li>
|
||
<li>Displaying the other user’s avatar as a room avatar for direct
|
||
chats</li>
|
||
</ul>
|
||
|
||
<p>Of course, there are a also a lot of less visible changes, fixes and
|
||
translations thanks to all our contributors, and our upstream
|
||
projects.</p>
|
||
|
||
<p>As the version implies, this is still considered beta stage and might
|
||
trigger crashes or other bugs but overall should be pretty stable.</p>
|
||
|
||
<p>A list of blocking issues for the release of version 5 can be found
|
||
in the Fractal v5 milestone on GitLab.</p>
