## 🧪 new features

* now possible to upload/delete files while the filesystem-indexer is still busy d44ea245 0ca4c1bd
  * global-option [fika](https://copyparty.eu/cli/#g-fika) decides which actions to allow while still indexing; default is upload+copy+delete
  * full deduplication is only guaranteed if this option is set blank, as dupes are allowed while indexing
* #1266 browsers can request thumbnails as jxl images, and view jxl files in the gallery (thx @intelfx!) b2711e05 720c83b2 93ffc65c a65a30b1 a7a25deb 59de5e2c 16403d8c 48c10178 0e8913c2
  * only works in browsers which support jxl, which is FINALLY happening ([sure took a while](https://issues.chromium.org/issues/40168998))
  * some notes on memory/RAM usage though -- it is fine on Alpine Linux, so docker is also fine, just don't enable mimalloc
    * jxl can be disabled with global-option [th-no-jxl](https://copyparty.eu/cli/#g-th-no-jxl) if necessary on baremetal deployments until libvips fixes this
* #1265 audioplayer can "skip silence" now (thx @icxes!) 66949989
* #1287 opensearch support for opds (thx @philips!) 84e687a0
* #1276 option [rw-edit](https://copyparty.eu/cli/#g-rw-edit) is the list of file-extensions that can be edited as textfiles with only permissions read+write (default is `md` like before); all other files still require read+write+delete 312f48e1 d6928380
* #1288 option to customize the links copied when selecting files and pressing ctrl-c (thx @icxes!) e5d0a057
* docker: add env-var [DI_PREPARTY](https://github.com/9001/copyparty/blob/hovudstraum/scripts/docker/devnotes.md#modding-on-the-fly) to run an arbitrary script during startup, for customizations and such bf01ca48
