CHANGELOG.md

@@ -5,6 +5,16 @@ All notable changes to this project will be documented in this file.
 The format is based on [Keep a Changelog](https://keepachangelog.com/en/1.0.0/),
 and this project adheres to [Semantic Versioning](https://semver.org/spec/v2.0.0.html).
 
+## [1.0.8] - 2026-03-13
+
+### Added
+- **Ambient Stage**: Completely redesigned Fullscreen Player. Experience an immersive atmosphere with drifting color orbs, a "breathing" cover animation, and high-resolution artist backgrounds.
+- **Improved Drag & Drop**: Rewritten Play Queue reordering for rock-solid reliability on macOS (WKWebView) and Windows (WebView2).
+
+### Fixed
+- **Linux Audio Stability**: Resolved playback stuttering when seeking under GStreamer by implementing a robust pause-seek-play sequence.
+- **Data Integration**: Standardized `artistId` propagation across all track sources for better metadata consistency.

@@ -16,6 +16,9 @@ Psysonic is a beautiful desktop music player built completely from the ground up
 
 Designed specifically for users hosting their own music via Navidrome or other Subsonic API servers, Psysonic aims to be the best way to interact with your personal library.
 
+Known Limitations
+
+Linux (drag & drop cursor feedback): Due to a WebKitGTK limitation, the drag cursor does not reflect the drop operation type — it may appear as a "forbidden" symbol or show no indicator at all, depending on the desktop environment. Drag and drop itself works correctly.
