+### Settings — adding a server no longer switches to it
+
+**By [@Psychotoxical](https://github.com/Psychotoxical), PR [#475](https://github.com/Psychotoxical/psysonic/pull/475)**
+
+* When you add a new server from **Settings → Servers**, the new entry now appears in the server picker but **your current active server stays active** — playback, queue and library view are no longer interrupted.
