v0.12.0
Notes
-----
The packages for windows are split into an appinstaller file with autoupdates
and an msix, which can be installed directly and won't check for updates. The
appimage is currently disabled until someone ports it to Qt6. The flatpak appid
changed and you will need to migrate manually.
For packagers most of our dependencies have been changed or updated. Most
significantly Nheko now depends on KDSingleApplication and Qt6.

other parts of the app (like sending messages).

respectively).
