This release implements a massive change to how link tool-tips and embeds work. They might act up a bit while we get the new back-end installed and tweaked.
* Added: Options to use custom formats for dates and times, under `Appearance > Localization`.
* Added: Options to change the colors of tool-tips.
* Changed: Completely rewrite how link information is formatted together with a complete rewrite of the link information service.
* Changed: The FFZ Control Center now remembers you previously open settings if you reload the page.
* Fixed: Update chat lines when i18n data loads.
* Fixed: i18n not correctly formatting certain numbers.
* Fixed: Theater mode automatically enabling on user home pages. (Closes#866)
* Fixed: Theater metadata overlapping chat with Swap Sidebars enabled. (Closes#835)
* API Added: New icons: `location`, `link`, and `volume-off`
* API Fixed: `createElement` not properly handling `<video>` related attributes.
* Added: Display rich tool-tips for channel panels.
* Fixed: Hide Unfollow button in theater mode with the appropriate setting. (Closes#860)
* Fixed: Automatically open Theater Mode not working when the channel is window is not visible. (Closes#861)
* Fixed: Game titles not appearing in clip embeds.
* Fixed: Featured Follow metadata failing when trying to open the menu.
* Debug Added: Setting to choose the link resolver.
* Debug Added: Test UI for working on link resolvers.
* Changed: Show the verified badge on rich chat embeds for Twitch partner channels.
* API Added: More flexible support for tokens when building chat embeds.
* API Added: Experiment for using the API to look-up links, rather than the socket cluster.
* Added: Setting to apply username colors to chat mentions. (Closes#753)
* Changed: Stream links now use a darker color.
* Changed: Make the icon for FFZ's Alternative Viewer Count slightly larger.
* Fixed: Crazy flickering when disabling hosting.
* Fixed: Stream links showing up on the home page and not just the live page.
* Fixed: Better detection for channels where the Host button should appear.
* Fixed: FFZ's Alternative Viewer Count metadata not updating correctly when FS Chat is in use.
* Added: Emote Visibility Control for Emote Menu. You can now hide emotes you don't want from your emote menu. You still have them, and they'll still appear in chat if someone else uses them, but it helps keep the clutter down in your menu. (Closes#811)
* Added: Setting to toggle mute for the player when middle-clicking it. (Closes#812)
* Added: Setting to toggle the bold style applied to chat mentions. (Closes#816)
* Fixed: No background color being applied to Highlight My Message chat messages when using the new Twitch layout. Now, the default Twitch purple will be used when FFZ hasn't yet extracted the color for the current channel. Extracting the channel color is still broken at this time. (Closes#821)
* Fixed: The player volume resetting to 100% when changing channels. (Closes#820)
* Fixed: Chat appearing incorrectly when a custom width smaller than 340 pixels is set. (Closes#819)
**Note**: This update does not fix all issues with features not working on Twitch's new channel page layout. Due to changes Twitch has been making to their coding practices, it is significantly harder to support their newer pages. We are still trying to determine the best way to support things going forward.
* Added: Chat Actions can be copied as JSON and imported from JSON. (Closes#782)
* Fixed: The player stuttering when attempting to play a clip when the Audio Compressor is set to be enabled by default.
* Fixed: Custom chat widths, swapping sidebars, and portrait mode not working correctly with the new channel page layout. (Closes#799, Affects #794)
* Fixed: Square Avatars not working correctly on the new channel page layout.
* Fixed: Searching settings would not properly search for items in Experiments.
* Fixed: Emotes ending in punctuation (specifically: `.`, `,`, and `!`) were not being displayed correctly.
* Fixed: The order of actions reversing after an inheritance point. (Closes#791)
* Changed: Rename `Chat > Bits and Cheering > Display Top Cheerers` to `Chat > Appearance > Display Leaderboard` to bring it in line with the current state of the feature.
* Removed: Option to hide offline channels from sidebar. This is no longer trivial to implement due to Twitch changes. (Closes#801)
* Fixed: The chat input field resizing when a different font size has been set. This is a Twitch bug, but I'm tired of users reporting it so FFZ will temporarily fix it until Twitch patches it themselves.
* Fixed: Highlighting messages when viewer cards are not open no longer working. Note: They still don't work in the Mod View, which is coded in a way that makes it harder to work with.
* Fixed: Appearance of the tool-tip for the FFZ Control Center button.
* Fixed: Player volume not saving correctly when using the mouse wheel to adjust volume, causing it to suddenly return to incorrect values in certain cases.
* Fixed: The Picture-in-Picture and Reset Player buttons appearing in the wrong location when using the Mod View.

* Changed: Allow resizing text entry boxes in the Translation Tester UI.
* Fixed: Emoji categories were not being localized.

* Fixed: Blacklist several Twitch errors that were being captured by automatic error reporting.
* Fixed: The optional FFZ Emote Menu icon not displaying properly when the menu is open.
* Changed: Styling of FFZ entries added to the chat settings menu to match the updated aesthetics.
