• Updated to GRDB 7.3.0 (from 6.29.3)
• Updated the ConfigMessageReceiveJob and MessageReceiveJob to use the `writeAsync` function (instead of the blocking `write` function) so that they aren't subject to the `Storage.transactionDeadlockTimeoutSeconds`
• Refactored the `Storage.performOperation` and `Storage.performPublisherOperation` to rely on the new cancellable async/await `Task` logic that GRDB 7 supports (as apparently the other async methods don't support cancellation...)
• Cleaned up some "Sendable" related warnings
• Minor tweaks to `Log.assertOnMainThread` to make it a little more readable
• Refactored the remaining `SNLog` calls
• Added support for a 'customSuffix' to the log categories (similar to the 'customPrefix' it allows category name manipulation whilst keeping the existing log level settings)
• Improved logging in the PN extension
• Fixed an issue where the PN extension would end up with duplicate logs every time a new PN was received
• Fixed an issue where the PN extension would needlessly dispatch it's setup to the main thread
• Fixed an issue where the PN extension would try to read from the database after suspending it
• Fixed an issue where the PN extension could try to complete on a non-main thread (eg. db threads) which _might_ cause odd behaviours
• Tweaked some background poller logs
• Refactored the `BackgroundFetch` handling to use a `DispatchSourceTimer` instead of `NSTimer` and use a specific `DispatchQueue` to avoid race conditions
• Refactored the BackgroundTaskManager to use `DispatchQueue` and `DispatchSourceTimer` and removed unused code (was seeing background tasks incorrectly running too long so wanted to clean it up)
• Fixed an issue where pollers would incorrectly be released during background polling
• Fixed an issue where the background poller wouldn't update the app notification badge count
• Fixed an issue where the community pollers 'timeSinceLastPoll' was incorrectly being given both an epoch timestamp as well as a duration since the last poll (resulting in always just refetching recent messages)
• Fixed an issue where the community poller wasn't updating the last poll timestamp (also renamed some functions to make them clearer)
• Fixed an issue where pollers could incorrectly be started in the background (eg. when receiving a PN)
• Refactored the 'performOperation' function to have cleaner control flow and resolve another EXC_BAD_ACCESS edge case
• Updated the code to allow legacy groups to be unpinned after they are deprecated
• Fixed an issue where the default state of the global search screen wouldn't be populated if you had a contact with no SessionThread record
• Fixed an issue with display picture placeholder generation
• Fixed an issue where the edit group screen would show the group display picture back to front
• Added a separate feature flag for deprecating legacy groups
• Added the ability for a legacy group admin to "Recreate" the group (ie. pre-fill a new group with the same members)
• 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)
• Added a 2000 limit to the input field
• Added an error when opening the share extension before completing onboarding
• Updated the code to treat an empty `adminSignature` as null (in case a client sends it incorrectly)
• Updated the code to include updated group control messages when determining unread
• 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 an issue where creating a conversation by tapping on a group member or avatar wasn't correctly creating the conversation in the draft state
• Fixed an issue where incoming messages could be added to the "Note to Self" conversation if the "syncTarget" was incorrectly set on them
• Added some localised copy
• Added the helpdesk article URL for the deprecated groups banner
• Updated mentions to include the current user in groups, 1-1 and NTS conversations (also made the current user appear as "you")
• Fixed a layout issue with the deleted message view
• Fixed an issue where the "mark as unread" action would incorrectly appear for the Note to Self conversation
• Fixed an issue where we were incorrectly sending an ExpirationTimerUpdate in some cases
• 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)
• Fixed an issue where the database read/write publishers weren't checking for a valid database state before actual query execution (only during the creation of the stream)
• 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
• Added a temporary fix for a crash when restoring an account (really need to fix up the reentrant Atomic<T> access issues)
• Updated the in-conversation blocked state as per UX feedback

• Updated the PushRegistrationManager to be an updated singleton type (cleaned up more in Groups Rebuild)
• Injected dependencies correctly in a bunch of places
• Added a few functions to retrieve conversation settings from libSession
• Updated the Note to Self swipe action to be "Hide" (hides the conversation but does not delete the messages)
• Updated the one-to-one deletion behaviour (now syncs both hiding the conversation and deleting it's messages)
• Updated the logic to retrieve the relevant disappearing messages setting from libSession when creating a thread if it doesn't exist (allows us to delete threads without worrying about losing settings)
• Updated a bunch of dependency management & injection code so the unit tests would pass
• Updated the GroupMembers handling to updated the current users entry if they have the admin key and their current state is not correct
• Updated the "groups have been upgraded" banner to be visible for non-admins

• Fixed a case sensitive contact sorting issue
• Fixed an issue where the groups v2 min version banner was appearing on legacy groups screens

• Fixed a bug where the group name would incorrectly be used in the block modal for group message requests
• Fixed a bug where the block button wasn't appearing within the group message request screen
• Fixed a bug where there was an incorrect timestamp conversion when checking whether to drop a message that was sent earlier than the 'deleteBefore' timestamp

• Refactored the 'RecipientState' type to just be columns on the 'Interaction' table
• Added some syntactic sugar to clean up the 'CallbackWrapper' boilerplate within the LibSession+Networking code
• Fixed an issue where sending a message into a group where you are the only member would result in the message permanently being in the sending state
• Fixed an issue when initially setting up the interaction database structure where the community whisper mechanism needed another column
• Fixed a bug where the MessageSendJob wouldn't time out during path building
• Fixed a bug where the MessageSendJob wouldn't retry 8 times before detecting a timeout (meaning it would retry up to 80 times in total before permanently failing)
• Added new 'LintControl' mechanisms to allow for ignoring sections of code
• Added new 'MatchType' mechanisms for excluding unlocalized cases
• Updated the code to explicitly handle localized template strings (both single and multiline)
• Updated the code to process files across multiple threads to improve performance
• Updated the code to use Swift 5.7 regex and store in static variables to prevent reconstruction every time they are used

• Added a setting to show the string keys instead of localised values
• Added settings to test the updated groups delete all messages settings
• Updated the onboarding UI to indicate whether it's currently pointing at Testnet
• Tweaked the 'isRTL' dependency setting to be clearer that it's not an injected value
• Fixed a bug with dependency name collision between the different storage types
• Fixed a bug with attachment file path creation
• Refactored the internal logic for the Dependencies class to resolve some multithreading issues
• Fixed a crash caused by using the wrong config when updating userGroups
