0.6.1

See the assets to download this version and install.

Hotfix

Links to issues that are closed with this release:

• Remove non-incentivized testnet from header #236
• Switch public_api_ws to gemini from aries (minor bug) #237

Planned for next-release:

• render voting rewards as well alongside the farm rewards

Important note:
Currently (as of June 2, 2022), it is only possible to sync/plot for the incentivized testnet. Rewards are locked, they will be unlocked in a couple of days. When that happens, expect a new release of the Desktop app, which will incorporate the changes of voting mechanism, and display the correct amount of rewards.
In this version, you will be able to earn rewards for both voting and farming when rewards are unlocked. But this version will only display farm rewards, not voting rewards. Be sure to download the next release if you also want your voting rewards to be displayed in the desktop app.

P.S. Until rewards are unlocked, we suggest using this version of subspace-desktop, so that you can fully sync/plot, and will be 100% ready when the rewards are unlocked.

0.6.0

See the assets to download this version and install.

What's changed:

• Subspace Desktop is now ready for Incentivized testnet! (changes from monorepo are reflected)

Links to issues that are closed with this release:

• Spelling Issue ( minor improvement ) #228

Known issues

• Non-incentivized testnet banner is still there, but it is indeed incentivized testnet :) Just ignore the banner for now
• When you click on the block number of the block you farmed, it may redirect you to the aries testnet instead of gemini. This bug is only related to links, not affecting the protocol, so no need to worry

Planned for next-release:

• render voting rewards as well alongside the farm rewards
• all the known issues above :)

0.5.0

See the assets to download this version and install.

This version is not tested yet, please use the version with latest tag on it!

What's changed:

• We are introducing multi-replica plotting with 0.5.x versions. With multi-replica, you will be able to dedicate more space than the blockchain history (the current size of the blockchain).
• external config: now, the user data is stored in an external configuration file, allowing the application to remember user preferences and data even if the user updates the application to a newer version.
• removed the round-icon from top menu bar, to make the app more simplistic. This icon was indicating the network status, but it is also displayed in the dashboard. It was not necessary and confusing for some of the users.
• updated the welcome page
• node name is persistent now (won't change every time you restart the application),
• log files are stored in conventional places for each OS
• CSP is improved and fixed for production
• farmer restart mechanism added (for some reason, if farmer crashes, now the backend code detects it, and restarts the farmer)

Links to issues that are closed with this release

• unable to create sr25519 keyring in production #215
• Linux and Windows Log file location #210
• Extract metadata information to a config file #191
• Receive peers and block information from node #182
• Change the wording for Quick Start and Advanced #171

0.4.8

See the assets to download this version and install.

This version is not tested yet, please use the version with latest tag on it!

What's changed:

• Now, the application stores the important logs in an external log file. This will significantly ease the process of reporting errors and debugging.
• Fixed the bug: if the application closes after generating the reward address, but before user confirms that s/he stored the reward address, the application will still store the reward address and will not display the mnemonic again.
• Improved compatibility with polkadot js wallet

Links to issues that are closed with this release

• Redirect logs to a file #181
• Reward address is stored immediately after the mnemonic is displayed #199
