Information on release strategy

[Rello]

In this post, I’d like to provide some background on the recent releases of the desktop client.

With the latest release, we’ve introduced a further feature version bump due to significant changes. Additionally, an error in the user agent header in version 3.14 made this update necessary.

What this means for the version roadmap:

• 3.16: 🟢 latest version
• 3.15: 🟡 limited availability
• 3.14: 🛑 deprecated
• 3.13: 🟡 limited availability (pre-UI-redesign) | last macOS legacy 10.10 version
• < 3.12: 🛑 deprecated

For enterprise customers, the corresponding update channel for the client will be activated soon.

Key changes in 3.16:

• More UI alignments
• Enforcing Windows compatible file names (auto-rename for invalid characters)
• Trashbin for macOS Virtual File System
• Performance: Chunked Uploads in line with server settings
