Added
- New :quickmark-reload and :bookmark-reload commands to reload quick-/bookmarks from disk (#8845).
Changed
- Windows and macOS releases now ship with Qt 6.11.0, which is based on Chromium 140.0.7339.225 with security patches up to 146.0.7680.80.
Deprecated
- Support for Python 3.9 is not tested anymore, and will be fully removed in the next release (#8731).
Fixed
- Added a workaround for graphic/flickering issues with Qt 6.11.0, AMD graphics and Wayland (#8908).
- Compatibility with PDF.js >= 5.5.207 (#8885).
- datalist dropdowns not opening correctly on Wayland/Sway (#8831). This was caused by an old workaround for a different QtWebEngine issue, which is now disabled for QtWebEngine 6.6.3 and newer.
- The workaround avoiding Google blocking sign ins from qutebrowser was updated, although it’s unclear if this will fix the issue as the behavior is wildly inconsistent.
- Added a workaround for QtWebEngine 6.11 crashing on Google Mail / Meet (#8914).
- The workaround avoiding crashes with Qt 6.10.1 and qt.workarounds.disable_hangouts_extension (or --version) has now been extended to Qt 6.10.2 as well (#8785, #8841).
- ANSI color codes now don’t end up in commands.asciidoc anymore when regenerating it using Python 3.14.
- The GenericName in the .desktop file is now correct for Ukrainian and Chinese (#8836).
