v8.3.1

During the not-so-relaxing holidays, Tribler has been blacklisted.. everywhere! Let's see this in a positive light and say that we are very popular (albeit with the wrong crowd).

• Exitnodes have been blacklisted by ISPs.
• The VPNs to introduce you to exit nodes have been blacklisted by ISPs.
• Even the tribler.org website has been blacklisted by our DNS provider. You can find us on https://tribler.github.io/ now.

This release should come with the tools you need to get your anonymous downloads working again. For most users, this will mean that you can keep anonymously downloading as usual. Some of you that are deep in blacklisted zones may need to set your anonymous hop count to "2" from now on.

v8.3.0

Before we head into the holidays (and Tribler dev team vacation), we want to leave you with this new prerelease.

A fair few of you have experienced an outage in anonymous downloading due to ISPs - all over the world - blacklisting Tribler exit nodes (#8807). This prerelease includes some fixes to circumvent this blacklisting. However, for those of you deep in "blacklisting territory", it will take some time for the network to heal itself and form paths out of the blacklisted Internet regions.

v8.2.3

This is a quick follow-up release to amend the hashchecking loop bug that plagues the v8.2.2 release.

v8.2.2

This release includes fixes for the v8.2.1 release.

v8.2.1

This release includes fixes for the v8.2.0 pre-release.

v8.2.0

A new feature release has landed! We have some exciting new features for you:

• Auto-management/queuing support for torrents.

• More tooltips in the GUI!
• Upload/download limits for individual torrents.
• A setting to ask for download locations when adding multiple torrents.

In this release, we also say goodbye to Windows 32 bit support 😢
