feat: Ambient Stage, Queue DnD overhaul, and GStreamer fixes (v1.0.8)

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.
