Beta Version (30.0.0.0) ???

[Passenger]

What are the prospective changes?

I looked on the Slimjet site and failed to find it. Link?

[oftentired]

The move to Chromium 88.0.4324.150 and the removal of the Quickfill.

[Passenger]

Good. That will clear up the previous zero day exploit issue.

What's New has been updated with some info on the Beta release

Beta Version 30.0.1.0 released 4/13/21
• Added support to copy quickfill passwords to default password manager: type slimjet://copy_quick_fill_passwords into address bar and press enter

Beta Version 30.0.0.0 released 4/9/21
• Improved support for dark mode them on Windows 10
• Remove support of ftp protocol
• Remove support of flash player
• Removed quick fill form filler

[Passenger]

I see FTP support is being removed.
Shops that use a lot of FTP generally use a dedicated client for more control anyway.
It really isn't a good idea to use the browser for it.

This is what I've been using for FTP home use.

Is gopher support still an issue?

It is to assist in the transition from Quickfill to the built-in Chromium password manager. I would not describe it as a new feature, rather as a temporary assist.

Hello oftentired,

Have we a rough guesstimate yet as to when a final release of Slimjet 30.0.x.x might be available?

Thanks,

Nothing I've been told. Typically it depends on how many bug reports are being submitted as the Beta release has the purpose of reaching a wider number of computers to flush out any issues that didn't show up on the developers systems. I have not seen that many issues reported here on the forum, so I would guess we might see it released at the current beta version anytime now.

Thank you for your reply.

Meanwhile, I just came across this article about the release of Chrome v90, which includes further security enhancements, by Martin Brinkmann over at gHacks:
