Vicinae

v1.4.0 (Latest)

✨ New Features

  • Binary Clipboard Transfer: Complete overhaul of clipboard management to use native binary data transfer instead of text/base64 encoding, providing better performance and compatibility with all MIME types
  • GNOME 49 Support: Added full compatibility with GNOME Shell 49 by @fernandocarletti #5
  • Enhanced Preferences UI:
    • Separated About and General preference pages for better organization
    • Added dynamic credits section with contributor information and GitHub links
    • Added debug command display showing journalctl /usr/bin/gnome-shell -f -o cat for easy log monitoring
  • Improved Development Experience:
    • Streamlined VM setup scripts for faster development workflow
    • Enhanced build scripts with better packaging and installation options

Note: Don't upgrade to this version before the upstream pull request is merged because there are breaking changes on clipboard management. Or build vicinae from source on refactor/gnome-clipboard-management
