Hey there! As the 3.7 release is getting nearer, it is time to prepare the release notes. This is the full list of changes: ▶ List of PRs & commits in this release Which I have summarised as follows (in 463 characters): ∙ Convert autodownloads from master switch to per-podcast setting ( @newhinton ) …

Alright, this should be it then (500 characters): ∙ Convert autodownloads from master switch to per-podcast setting ( @newhinton ) ∙ Add option to automatically download queue ( @ByteHamster ) ∙ Add option to have play/pause button on Downloads screen (@RihardsT) ∙ Allow to delete tags by long-pres…

Thanks a lot for preparing! Splitting the notification channels is probably only interesting for a small number of users. I think I would leave that one out.

Thanks! In that case, we have a bit more space to elaborate on the misc. improvements (precisely 500 characters): ∙ Convert autodownloads from master switch to per-podcast setting ( @newhinton ) ∙ Add option to automatically download queue ( @ByteHamster ) ∙ Add option to have play/pause button in D…

While you updated the proposal I was also typing up some suggestions to make use of the space :slight_smile: Allow deleting tag by holding → Allow delete a tag by long-pressing Add option to have play/pause button in Downloads → Add option to have play/pause button in Downloads screen On the last…

Hmm, apparently Google counts characters differently than me. They just blocked the upload because the changelog is too long. I changed the wording a bit. I think in the future, we should stay below 480 characters, just to be safe.

I also count 520 characters in Notepad++: [image] @loucasal which tool did you write/count characters in? [image] ByteHamster: we should stay below 480 characters, just to be safe. Let’s try and find a tool that correctly counts characters. Would be a shame to lose an additional few chara…

I used some random website and got 500 as well. I think the key point might be that these bullet points are multi-byte characters. Also, because text files by definition end with a line break, there might be a discrepancy about whether it counts the last line break.

More detailed view from Notepad++: [image] The dot + space is already 4 characters according to Notepad++: [image] This one gives 506 characters: Free Online Word Counter Tool (probably counting a multibyte as one, and also End Of Line as one). @ByteHamster Which was the text that you provide…

[image] keunes: This one gives 506 characters Funnily enough, I get the same count in LibreOffice if I copy the Discourse output (is that what you did?), but only 500 if I copy the actual input. What a rabbit hole!

[image] keunes: Which was the text that you provided to Google, which was accepted? (So we can count back.) I removed more than absolutely necessary, so we can’t really count back. I did that to make sure that the second try gets accepted. Retrying with a different changelog is a bit of a has…
