Prior to this release, users of Safari 10 were not able to access The Lounge anymore, because of a conscious change the WebKit made to their support of CSP, as [explained here](https://webkit.org/blog/6830/a-refined-content-security-policy/). This release addresses this issue.
Another notable change is the removal of tooltips on mobiles, as hovering states on mobile devices breaks in different kind of ways. Hopefully there will be a better solution in the future, or better support across mobiles.
This is also the first release candidate for v2.0.0. This means only critical bug fixes will be merged before releasing v2.0.0.

What an exciting release! It's been in the works for more than a month, but the perks are worth the wait.
On the user side, some long-awaited new features can now be found: The Lounge can now track custom highlights, it comes with an auto-expanding text field, and an unread message marker helps keeping track of what happened when you were not watching. A lot of improvements and various bug fixes have been made to the UI.
Note that scrollbar look-and-feel is now delegated to the browser and OS. Use the custom CSS editor and your OS settings to customize them.
Administrators will notice a different format for channels in the user configuration files, and the Docker-related files have been moved to [a dedicated repository](https://github.com/thelounge/docker-lounge). Many bugs have been solved on the server as well.

[See the full changelog](https://github.com/thelounge/lounge/compare/v2.0.0-pre.3...v2.0.0-pre.4)
This pre-release adds a loading window, helpful on slow connections.
It also implements token persistency, ensuring users do not have to authenticate at every server restart. As a side effect, security is improved by forcing logging out users on all devices when changing their password.
All generated URLs are now HTTP by default, except when explicitly set to HTTPS. For example, `www.example.com` will link to `http://www.example.com`. One needs to share `https://www.example.com` to point others to a HTTPS location.
As a few users have been having issues when running The Lounge with a non-supported Node.js version, we now detect it early to avoid cryptic errors.
This pre-release also adds minor UI improvements, and fixes from the previous version.
While The Lounge still needs a lot of efforts to be fully accessible, this version slightly improves accessibility on clickable nickname.
Internally, we now keep track of our code coverage, which we do not enforce strictly at the moment.
