Just to be sure, we're going to release a final pre-release. Since the last one, we have implemented these noteworthy fixes and features:

  • Ubuntu 20 (GTK-3) support.
  • Sorting support and persistence for Tribler content.
  • Fixes for UTF-8 support in the GUI and for downloads on your disk.
  • Fixes for external translation tools crashing our GUI.
  • Fixes for scrolling and content scaling.
  • No more version control for your downloads: never lose them again after an upgrade.

We appreciate your continued efforts in reporting bugs and we (again) hope to get the stable 8.0 version out soon!


IMPORTANT NOTE FOR THOSE UPDATING FROM OLD PRE-RELEASE VERSIONS

To - once and for all - make sure that your downloads don't disappear between versions, we stopped requiring you to click the IMPORT button. HOWEVER, YOU HAVE TO MANUALLY COPY OVER YOUR DOWNLOADS STARTED IN A PREVIOUS PRE-RELEASE. To do so, find your state directory:

  • On Windows: %APPDATA%/.Tribler
  • On Mac/Linux: ~/.Tribler

The downloads you started in any of the 8.0.x pre-releases will be in .Tribler/8.0/dlcheckpoints COPY THESE TO .Tribler/dlcheckpoints to keep your downloads.

This is a one time thing and we apologize for the inconvenience.
