-Chevereto 4.3 (Entrador) introduces several major improvements and new features for enhanced usability, performance, and flexibility.
+[Chevereto 4.3 (Entrador)](https://v4-docs.chevereto.com/introduction/changelog/4.3.html) marks a major leap forward, delivering powerful new features and significant improvements in usability, performance, and flexibility. The release name, taken from the Spanish word "[Entrador](https://dle.rae.es/entrador)", joins the tradition of unique codenames following "Macanudo" (4.0), "Pulento" (4.1), and "Regio" (4.2). It reflects the spirit of being proud, enterprising, and bold.
+
+We chose *entrador* to celebrate this milestone as Chevereto 4.3 debuts on [Chevereto Cloud](https://chevereto.com/cloud), opening a new chapter for the project and company.
+
+The introduction of large file uploads is a standout feature, expanding Chevereto's reach into new industries and use cases. This capability is set to attract a broader user base and unlock new possibilities for media hosting.
+
+Another game-changing addition is the new Redis-based application cache, which dramatically improves load handling and overall performance. "Entrador" is the fastest, most efficient Chevereto yet and with your feedback, it will continue to get even better.
 
 ## Chunked uploads
 
-Large file uploads are now supported through chunked uploading. Files are split into smaller parts and uploaded in parallel, removing previous file size limitations. This enables uploading of large videos, high-resolution images, and other large media without infrastructure constraints. Duplicate detection is performed progressively during upload, and abandoned uploads are automatically cleaned up.

 You can offer support for large media uploads without needing to adjust server limits. You can focus on creating and sharing content without technical barriers.
 
 ## Performance optimizations
 
-A Redis driver now provides application-layer caching for categories, system variables, tags, guest listings, pages, settings, user albums, and more. Reverse index caching and cache stampede protection are implemented for efficient cache management. The xxh64 checksum algorithm is now used for file hashing, resulting in faster duplicate detection and reduced CPU usage.

 Database queries have been optimized, with new composite indexes and fewer round trips. Unused logic and dependencies have been removed, resulting in a cleaner and smaller codebase.
 
 These changes reduce database load, improve response times, and enhance performance under heavy traffic.
 
 ## Lossless JPEG handling and metadata control
 
-JPEG uploads are now handled losslessly, with pixel-perfect auto-orientation and optional EXIF data removal for privacy. Images are preserved as uploaded, with no quality loss or hidden compression.
+JPEG uploads are now handled losslessly, with pixel-perfect auto-orientation and optional EXIF data removal for privacy. Images are preserved as uploaded, with no quality loss or hidden compression. This is thanks to the integration with [ExifTool](https://exiftool.org) and [ExifTran](https://git.kraxel.org/cgit/fbida/).
 
 Your uploads with no quality loss, ensuring your photos and artwork are preserved exactly as intended without hidden compression or unwanted changes, making Chevereto ideal for photographers, designers, and anyone needing true-to-source media handling.
