V2024.10.0
A Faster Parabolic π¨π¨
V2024.10.0 is here!
This update features a brand new rewrite of Parabolic in C++. Users should now have a faster and more stable downloading experience, with the continued reliability and customizability loved by our users.
We have also redesigned the user interfaces on both the GNOME and Windows platforms to make it easier to find the Parabolic features you love and want to use. We have also refined and improved the options available when configuring individual downloads, playlists, and Parabolic as a whole. Besides new things, we have fixed tons of bugs throughout the downloading backend that users have been waiting for.
We hope you all love this release as much as we loved making it! A huge thank you to all users who worked with us in fixing issues, testing the betas, contributing translations and more β€οΈ
