v2.0.0-beta.3a

Unicord 2.0 - Beta 3a

This is the first beta release of the Unicord redesign, featuring a major rework of the app from the ground up. It's still a bit broken in places, and platform support is currently limited to x86, x64 and ARM32 versions of Windows 10 build 15063+, and x64 versions of Windows 11 build 22000+.

MOST THINGS YOU SEE ARE SUBJECT TO CHANGE. That said, feedback is very welcome, file an issue and make sure to start the title with "[REDESIGN]".

What's new?

• Fixes a bug causing crashes on launch.
• Further improved app launch performance by doing more in parallel
  • This may have broken a few things, if the app hangs on login or you can't load the login page, please file an issue!
  • By my own metrics, this makes Unicord the fastest launching UWP Discord Client on both Desktop and Phone!

  • This should much improve channel switch performance especially on phones/other low end devices

• Search/pinned messages pages now actually work again
  • The pinned messages page has been rewritten from scratch so please note any bugs you see
• Message editing has been reworked
