MAC VERSION IS NOT PRESENT IS THIS BUILD

Tons of new changes!

πŸŽ₯ Animations added to tab opening and closing.
⌨ Many new keyboard shortcuts! Will be documented soon in a dedicated README file. Ctrl+Shift+T works now!
πŸ†• Massive change: I've switched over from using WebViews for tabs to BrowserViews. This will be a massive improvement on speed, privacy, RAM usage and security.
πŸ“¦ Entirely new local storage system, actually functional this time.
πŸ“Ί Picture-in-picture (PiP) support for HTML5 videos and YouTube videos!
πŸ”’ SSL Certificate Dialogs (currently broken along with most other dialogs because of the recent BrowserView transition). gif
🦚 New peacock:// pages including peacock://flags (see image), peacock://about and peacock://version.
⚠ Error pages via peacock://network-error show when something went wrong.
⭐ Finally! Peacock has a dedicated new tab page: newtab
βœ” Settings page fixed.
πŸ”‘ Permission controls added, again currently broken with the new BrowserViews.
πŸš… Blazing fast Electron 8!

Many more features have been added in this build! See for yourself with one of the download links below.

I'm working on the massive new Peacock Mail system (not an email address, an email alias service) to stop spam and see who's selling your data.

Again, as always don't store sensitive data on Peacock.
