Status Weekly Roundup: Desktop Messenger team Hello from the Desktop Messenger team! An exciting update this week—Status Desktop 0.13.1 has been released, and you can get it here Remember all the performance work the Desktop UI team has been tweeting about over the last two months? Well in Status Desktop 0.13.1 it’s all finally landed and the results are great 🙂 Channel switching is way faster than before, CPU usage is far lower, we are seeing RAM usage reduced by around 50%, boot time is a little bit faster, and most importantly the feeling of ‘jankiness’ when using the app is mostly gone. There are still a few specific instances of jankiness we need to eliminate, and there are still a couple of RAM usage bugs, but by and large Status Desktop’s performance and resource usage problems are mostly fixed 🙂 To manage expectations, this release isn’t “public beta” quality yet, most notably because there are some non-backward compatible breaking changes to how communities function that we need to introduce in 0.14. Also, @Waku_org v2 relay mode bandwidth usage is still too high. But Status Desktop is definitely making good progress towards its “first public beta” milestone. One of the last two big blockers (app performance) is now solved, and there is only one large blocker remaining (Waku bandwidth usage). So feel free to head to GitHub and give Status Desktop 0.13.1 a try! #EthStatusProgress
