Changelog:
Version 1.3.3 (2016-10-01):
- Support longer tweets in a few more places
- Properly escape ampersand characters in user mentions to fix
GtkLabel warnings about wrong escape characters in tooltips
- Fix tweet length calculations for whitespace-only tweets
- Check for duplicated entries in media arrays. This is apparently a
problem on Twitter's side but led to crashes in Corebird (see #627)
- Use the correct nsfw status of a tweet, i.e. the one that can
actually show images.
- Fix a crash when sending a tweet with multiple images attached

- Cope with the tweet length changes introduced by Twitter
- Fix a problem with malformed media URLs
Changelog:
Version 1.2.2 (2016-05-19)
ChangeLog:
- Remove margins from the buttons in the topbar. This caused
problems with some gtk+ themes.
- gtk+ < 3.20 was more inconsistend with adding style classes
to widgets than I thought, so the pre-3.20 fallback css added
in 1.2.1 caused the icons in the topbar to have the wrong color.
Version 1.2.1 (2016-05-10)
ChangeLog:
- Fix a11y labelling of several switches in the settings dialog
- Fix an input window clipping bug in the tweet info page
- Fix a few cases of overlapping widgets into window borders
- Remove the "Save as" context menu from inline media. This ha
not been working in a while but the context menu was still there.
- Rename the .sidebar style class to .topbar. This was used in corebird
before gtk+ used it, but now that the sidebar is at the top, the .sidebar
style from gtk+ themes collides with the horizontal alignment we use,
so use the more fitting '.topbar'.
- Show a focus outline in the topbar again. We are setting a custom
background color here, so we also need to set a fitting outline color.
- Fix a coloring but in the topbar, where wildcard selectors in themes
would overrde our foreground color.
Changelog:

current window size.
- Instagram videos are now correctly marked as videos, instead
of was images
- If you have GTK+ >= 3.19, there's now a GtkShortcutsWindow
accessible from the app menuexplaining the various keyboard
shortcuts. Note that Corebird still compiles and runs with
GTK+ 3.16
- The big "add media" button in the compose window has been
replaced with a regular text button. The added images are
scaled down and displayed below it

Version 1.1 (2015-09-30)

insert common phrases or longer unicode emoticons. It can be found in the
application settings in the "Snippets" tab.

the application settings.

Version 1.0.1 (2015-07-17)
nothing...
Version 1.0 (2015-03-19)
- All dialogs now use client-side decrations if the environment dictates it, otherwise they fall back to server-side decorations. Note that the compose dialog is an exception, since we use the client-side decorations there also for progress indication (and other things in the future).
- Many layout updates
- The compose window now allows for up to 4 pictures to be uploaded.
- We now save additional information about the account which makes it possible for blocked users to be actually blocked, i.e. streamed tweets won't appear in your timeline anymore.
- When (un)following someone, we now also correctly show/hide their retweets in the stream.
- The DM page now sorts threads with unread messages first.
- The @handle completion known from the compose window is now also available when composing Direct Messages, as well as in the account settings for the description.
- Everything app-specific should now be hidpi ready, the only thing missing are assets loaded from Twitter directly, i.e. avatars and media.
- Notifications should now get withdrawn whenever it makes sense, i.e. if you read a Direct Message before dismissing the notification, it should get withdrawn automatically.
- The hover buttons moved to a right-click menu on every tweet.
- Plurals are properly localized.
- We now also respect muted users (even though there's no UI to mute someone)
- A user's verification status is now also shown in the tweet info page.
- Everything should now work when the user's @handle (aka screen_name) changes.
- Switching to the same page (i.e. going to a profile from the profile page) now works much better, including the swipe transition as well as proper equality checking.
- Invalid inline media (file size too big, 404, ...) should now be properly detected and reacted upon (i.e. remove the widget in the stream, add the link back).
- Underlines in @handles are now properly displayed in the app menu (i.e. the "open account" submenu)
- Animated gifs from Twitter are now also handled (just like other videos).
- Tweets in timelines are now single-click activated. This unifies the behavior with all other lists in the application. Since this interferes with certain user behaviors, there's a setting to switch back to double-click activation.
- Based on a user's protection status, we now disable (or hide) retweet buttons of tweets.
