| title: "everything what you've been waiting for. welcome to cobalt 3.0 :)" | |
| date: "Aug 12, 2022" | |
| follow cobalt's twitter account for polls, updates, and more: [@justusecobalt](https://twitter.com/justusecobalt) | |
| stuff that you can notice: | |
| - you can now download audio from any supported service, in any format that you set in settings (+). yes, that includes mp3, which you all have been waiting for :D | |
| - it's now easier to switch between download modes (just a single toggle on the bottom). | |
| - your youtube download format has been reset, sorry, but that was required to implement all audio downloads. | |
| - default download format for youtube videos on all platforms is now webm. except for ios. | |
| - cobalt now has emoji, just to spice up the black and white ui. all of them have been tuned to look the best in both themes. isn't it cool? | |
| - about, changelog, and donation popups have been merged into just one, for covnenience. | |
| - changelog got a huge upgrade (as you can see), and now there are both major changes and latest commit info, just so commits can finally go back to being batshit insane. | |
| - changelog popup appears on every major update, but you can disable it in settings, if you want to. | |
| - changelog now opens by default when pressing "?" button. i don't think anyone reads "about" as often. | |
| - settings (+) have been split into three tabs, also for convenience and ease of use. | |
| - added support for donation links. you can now donate through boosty, not only via crypto :D | |
| - donate popup has been rearranged and tuned just a tiny bit. | |
| - you can now click away from any popup by pressing the void behind it. | |
| - you can also press "escape" key on keyboard to close any popup. | |
| - switchers and buttons are now way easier on eye. white border is gone from where it's unneeded. | |
| - buttons are now very satisfying to press. | |
| - switchers are scrollable if there's not enough space to fit all contents on screen. | |
| - scaling is now even better than before. | |
| internal stuff: | |
| - frontend won't send video related stuff if audio mode is on. | |
| - matching has, yet again, gone through mitosis, and is now probably the cleanest it can get. | |
| - page rendering is now modular, something like what frameworks have but way lighter. this makes adding new features WAY easier. | |
| - removed some stuff that didn't make sense (like storing language of stream request). | |
| - cleaned up insides of cobalt, of course. | |
| - almost all links now open in new tab, just like they should have from the very beginning. | |
| known issues: | |
| - impossible to download audio from vk. i'll try to fix it in the next update. | |
| - headers are not sticky in tabbed popups. maybe this is a good thing, i'll think about it. | |
| if you ever notice any issues, make sure to report them on github. your report doesn't have to sound professional, just do your best to describe the issue. |
