Warning
This release breaks backwards compatibility for message encryption. 2.1.0 and up will not be able to decrypt messages sent on earlier versions. The new system is much more future-proof, so this shouldn't happen again in the future.
✨️ Functionality changes
- 🔒 New Message Encryption: Message encryption has been completely rebuilt to be safer and faster. A WASM-based implementation is now used, which you can check out here.

This release includes massive internal changes and may not guarantee a clean migration.
Your list of client mods will be reset.
✨️ Functionality changes
- 🚸 Migration to Vencord: GoofCord now fully uses Vencord/Equicord for internal Discord interactions instead of Shelter. This eliminates the need to always load 2 client mods. If you weren't using any custom plugins in Shelter, it is safe to remove it.
- 🧩 Asset Downloader: There is now a generic asset downloader that you can use to install themes or custom client mods. Learn more here
- 🚀 Faster Startup: Cut startup times in half for subsequent runs.
- ⚙️ Fancier settings: Various settings UI improvements, like proper lists and smoother animations.
- Various improvements to arRPC.
- Enabled process sandboxing.
🐛 Fixes
- Fixed Vencord QuickCSS not loading
- Fixed stream quality being shown as 720p 30fps
- Fixed keybinds menu not being accessible
- ...a bunch of other fixes
Other changes
- Ginormous internal refactoring
- Ensured strict type safety
Full Changelog: v1.11.3...v2.0.0

This is a small patch that mostly fixes the broken custom titlebar while I am working on a bigger update. It is built from the 1.11.4 branch, and not the main branch.
✨️ Functionality changes
- Added a cozy winter theme for the settings. It can be disabled with a setting in the "Appearance" category.
- Added a setting to disable hardware acceleration.
🐛 Fixes
- Fixed the custom titlebar. If you were using a workaround from #160, you can delete it now.
Full Changelog: v1.11.3...1.11.4

✨️ Functionality changes
- Chrome Spoofer: GoofCord now emulates the Chrome browser to better blend in with expected traffic. The Windows spoof has also been updated to be less detectable.
🐛 Fixes
- Removed the two exclamation marks in the screen share resolution selector.
Other/small changes
- Removed customUserAgent setting.
- Updated to Electron 39.2.6
Full Changelog: v1.11.2...v1.11.3

✨️ Functionality changes
- Windows Spoofing: Added a setting to realistically emulate the Windows platform. This effectively bypasses VPN blocking on Linux #137, while hopefully being less suspicious. If you were using a custom user agent for this purpose, use this instead. (by @Error-Cezar in #150)
- Updated screen sharing framerate and resolution inputs to be selectors instead of text fields (by @Error-Cezar in #152)
Other/small changes
- Translation updates #151
Full Changelog: v1.11.1...v1.11.2

✨️ Functionality changes
- Added a setting to change the UserAgent. This can be used to bypass VPN blocking on Linux by setting a Windows user agent. It will likely make your traffic suspicious. A better workaround will be made when I have the time. #137
🐛 Fixes
- Updated SpikeHD's shelter plugin links, which fixed ShelteRPC not installing for new users.
- Fixed shortcuts not working on Linux when the same keybind is assigned in Discord and in a shortcut manager like KDE shortcuts #144
Other/small changes
- Disabled DevTools detection by default
- Updated to Electron 39.2.3
Full Changelog: v1.11.0...v1.11.1

⚠️ Cloud backup encryption upgrade (BREAKING)
The previous encryption system for cloud settings was susceptible to brute force and integrity attacks. This update addresses this by hardening encryption, following OWASP and NIST recommendations.
- What you need to do: If you use a password with the cloud backup feature, you must re-save your settings after updating.
- What will happen: Old, password-protected cloud backups will no longer be loadable after this update.
Note: This vulnerability was only a risk for users storing message encryption passwords on cloud with a weak password.
✨️ Functionality changes
- 🐧 Wayland By Default: Now runs in Wayland mode by default on Linux (when XDG_SESSION_TYPE=wayland is set) — no manual Ozone platform flags needed
- 🔴 More Accurate Unread Counts: Badges for the dynamic icon are now generated during runtime, which allows showing precise ping counts up to 99 on the app icon.
- "Unread badge" setting: Show a dot on the app icon if you have any unreads.
- "Static title" setting: Prevent Discord from changing the window title.
- Hidden disableGpuCompositing setting: Sets the --disable-gpu-compositing flag. Some users find it improves screen share quality. Access by triple-clicking "Other" category.
🐛 Fixes
- Settings buttons no longer switch to first tab unexpectedly.
- Fixed laggy scrolling in channels with many reactions.
- Fixed settings not loading if safeStorage decryption fails.
Other/small changes
- Translation updates in #138
- UX improvements to the cloud system
- Added margin to the wordmark
- Removed GTK 4 crash workaround
- Use in-built compile cache instead of "v8-compile-cache"
- Updated to Electron 38.2.2
Full Changelog: v1.10.3...v1.11.0

✨️ Functionality changes

🌍 Translations
- Translated to Italian by @PokeMichele
Other/small changes
- Improved multiselect dropdown styling
- Updated to Electron 38.1.0
Full Changelog: v1.10.2...v1.10.3

✨️ Functionality changes
- Added "Performance flags" option. If you were running with --no-flags to work around issues, disabling performance flags should be enough now.
- Added rich presence support for macOS
- Made Windows game scanning faster
Other/small changes
- Some assets, like localization, are now "baked" into the JS bundle, reducing file system calls. Potentially improves startup times on slow storage devices.
- Updated to Electron 37.2.6
Full Changelog: v1.10.1...v1.10.2

🐛 Fixes
- Fixed broken custom titlebar
- Fixed GTK 2/3 symbols detected launch crash #123

- ☁️ Auto save to cloud: Added an option to automatically save settings to cloud when they change.
- 🌍 Language hot reloading: Settings UI immediately reflects the chosen language.
- 📦 Portable mode: Create a goofcord-data folder in the executable path to save all user data there.
- Unhidden "Tray icon" setting on Linux for selecting a symbolic tray icon.

- Added more flags/switches, enabling additional hardware acceleration on some systems.
- Slightly faster arRPC process scanning & smaller CPU spikes
- Deferred venbind loading (loaded only when needed)
- Enabled source maps for dev builds
- Updated to Electron 36.3.1
Full Changelog: v1.9.0...v1.10.0

✨️ Functionality changes
- Global Keybinds: You can now set keybinds in the Discord settings, and they will work globally across the system.
- This is implemented using venbind, which currently only supports Windows and Linux on x64 architectures.
- If you are on Linux and your desktop environment does not support the GlobalShortcuts portal, you can manually bind your desired keybinds to CLI triggers: --keybind-up="<keybind id>", --keybind-down="<keybind id>" . You can get the id by opening DevTools (Ctrl+Shift+I), going to Console tab and modifying/adding a keybind. You should see an Array in the console which contains registered keybind ids. This process is temporary and will be improved in future versions.
- --no-venbind argument stops venbind from loading
🐛 Fixes
- Fixed Shop/Discovery freezing ("Opening Discord app..."). Requires Rich Presence to be enabled.
- Fixed CSS @import not working with Asset Loader
Other/small changes
- Updated to Electron 35.1.5

- CSS Hot reloading: CSS loaded with Asset Loader now hot reloads
🐛 Fixes
- Fixed rich presence/arrpc not removing status after closing a game
Other/small changes
- Updated to Electron 35.1.4
- Switched to canvas for dynamic icon generation instead of Jimp
- Updated auto-launch dependency, possibly improving auto start behaviour
Full Changelog: v1.8.5...v1.8.6

✨️ Functionality changes
- New Custom Titlebar: Updated custom titlebar to fit the Discord UI update
