• Minor tweak to config load order
• Pulled across reentrancy PR fixes
• Fixed an issue where some UI changes were occurring on background threads (causing crashes)
• Fixed an issue where editing a group name/description was performing a blocking action but not showing a loading indicator
• Fixed an issue where the group display picture modal would have it's "save" button enabled even when the picture hadn't been changed

• Updated the "Leave" button to be "Delete" for legacy groups once deprecated
• Disabled the "mark as unread" action for legacy groups once deprecated
• Disabled the input and conversation settings for legacy groups once deprecated
• Disabled the long press menu and removing reactions for legacy groups once deprecated
• Reworked synchronous database access to prevent reentrancy issues
• Updated the JobExecuter to take a "Scheduler" rather than a "DispatchQueue" (allows for a potentially refactor to use "OperationQueue" instead if we want more fine-tuned control over the number of concurrent executions which can occur)
• Reworked the database rentrancy fixes
• Added a timeout to prevent deadlocks with our custom synchronous database actions
• Fixed a case where we were incorrectly accessing the database in a reentrant way

• Fixed an issue where legacy group members could appear in the members list multiple times when navigating there from the conversation title
• Fixed an issue where the message deletion toasts could appear behind blurred modal backgrounds
• Fixed an issue where pasting text which is too large into an empty input field would result in the text having the default OS styling instead of the text styling we have set

• Updated the code to treat an empty `adminSignature` as null (in case a client sends it incorrectly)

• Updated code to perform a supplemental key rotation (if needed) when resending invites to members flagged as supplemental (to handle a case where the initial invite request failed)
• Updated the code to schedule group config update control messages when making the local changes but make their sending contingent on the next config sync succeeding
• Updated the code to only enable the Share and Notification extensions once the onboarding process has been completed
• Updated the code to always enqueue config syncs for all configs on launch (if there are no pending changes then it won't do anything, but if there are then this will increase the likelihood that they will be synced)
• Fixed an issue where the default contacts query was based on thread records instead of contact records

• Fixed a crash due to our ThreadSafe code using a struct instead of a class (rendering it non thread safe)
• Fixed a crash which could occur on the home screen if the data loaded before the UI finished loading
• (Hopefully) Fixed a crash which could occur when the OS optimised async execution to run immediately within an existing database transaction (potentially resulting in re-entrant database access)

• Added a unit test to validate the GroupMember sorting continues to work as expected
• Updated the AppSetup process to be simpler (no need to check if it had previously run anymore)
• Removed some state management code from the NotificationServiceExtension (no longer needed now that state is properly managed via the Dependencies)
• Fixed an issue where if you had updated another client, gotten updated groups in your config, and then update the iOS client then it wouldn't create the updated groups until a UserGroups config change occurred

• Updated to the latest Lucide version
• Updated the bin icons to use the new Lucide icon
• Fixed an issue where flagging a members messages to be deleted when kicking them wasn't using the standard message removal process
• Fixed an issue where you couldn't delete a group after it was destroyed
• Fixed an issue where being promoted to admin would fail because you weren't already an admin
• Fixed an issue where the share extension wasn't populating it's conversation list

• Fixed an issue where messages could incorrectly be considered disappearing messages (with no duration)
• Fixed an issue where non-admins couldn't locally delete messages in community conversations
• Fixed an issue where deleting Note to Self messages for all devices was incorrectly leaving an artifact
• Fixed an issue where emoji reacts added to messages which have been deleted locally would still get added to the deleted artifact
• Fixed a layout issue in groups/communities with the "this message was deleted" artifact
• Fixed an issue where highlighting and unhighlighting a "danger" action in the context menu would result in it changing to a non-danger colour
• Fixed an issue where the community poller always thought it was the initial poll
• Added a loading indicator while config syncing is happening while sending group invitations/promotions

• Fixed an issue where the current user could see group admins actions before they had been flagged as an accepted admin
• Added updated member statuses
• Updated to latest libSession (includes group status changes and breaking GroupKeys change)
• Fixed an issue where starting a new conversation on a new account could result in being kicked out of the conversation after a couple of seconds
• Fixed an issue where blocking a group invite would result in the senders contact conversation reverting to a message request
• Fixed an issue where deleting all attachments before now wouldn't leave behind the "message was deleted" artifact
• Fixed an issue where deleting all attachments before now was incorrectly deleting voice messages
• Fixed an issue where deleting all attachments before now wasn't deleting quote thumbnails
• Fixed an issue where you could never delete a group after being kicked
• Fixed an issue where some updated group control messages would be dropped by linked devices
• Renamed the remaining 'calledFromConfig' params to be a bit more descriptive of what they actually do
• Removed all the 'calledFromConfig' values
The `calledFromConfig` was previously needed to help prevent reentrant libSession access but that is now supported. This now means that a config change could trigger a database update which subsequently triggers a config change but libSession has a built in diff system which will prevent this resulting in an infinite update loop
If we do end up in a situation that this update loop results in a config change (which would then get synced) it's likely a bug in iOS which would be hard to track down as it would result from a specific database change (ie. this will hopefully make it easier to resolve inconsistent libSession integrations)
• Added some missing accessibility identifiers
• Added the inline Lucide icon on the Conversation screen for legacy groups

• Updated the code to insert the "members added" control message on the admins device after creating a group
• Minor copy tweak
• Fixed a crash which could happen during onboarding due to the poller getting incorrectly created when entering the background before the account is created
• Fixed a bug where sync messages weren't working correctly
• Fixed an issue where the "delete before" behaviours weren't leaving behind the "this message was deleted" messages
• Fixed an issue where group admins wouldn't appear in mentions
