If updating from a commit in-between release, it removes the "Please sign in" error caused +by a previous attempt at restoring video playback on large instances. + +In the preferences, a new option allows for control of video preload. When enabled, this option +tells the browser to load the video as soon as the page is loaded (this used to be the default). +When disabled, the video starts loading only when the "play" button is pressed. + +New interface languages available: Bulgarian, Welsh and Lombard + +New dependency required: `tzdata`. + +An HTTP proxy can be configured directly in Invidious, if needed. \ +**NOTE:** In that case, it is recommended to comment out `force_resolve`. + + +### New features & important changes + +#### For users + +* Channels: Fix "Youtube API returned error 400" error preventing channel

+#### For users + +* The search bar now has a button that you can click! +* Youtube URLs can be pasted directly in the search bar.

Trancripts feature is coming soon! +* Various fixes regarding the logic interacting with Youtube +* The `sort_by` parameter can be used on the `/api/v1/channels/{id}/streams` endpoint.
