The 2025.10.1 release brings Liquid Glass design, underlying improvements, and more… ### Improved - Massively improved code rendering and supported list of languages for code rendering - Improved detection of code languages when mentioned in the header ### Fixes - Fixed a bug causing bookmarked articles to never appear in the bookmarks list. - Fixed a crash that would sometimes occur when tasks were running in the background. From the v2025.10.0 release: ### New - The "Previous Article" and "Next Article" implementations were missing in the "Go" app menu. These are now available once again, with the keyboard shortcuts `J` and `K` respectively. - The app uses new APIs for importing and exporting OPML files. These are faster, and include better compatibility for handling invalid or malformed outline markups. - Improved parsing of feed icons from feed metadata ### Technical - The app now uses a newer DNS system to connect to the API. In most cases, this should be completely transparent to you. However, if you're having trouble using the app after updating, I'd recommend you switch to an older version of the app, and immediately notify me at support@elytra.app
