New version of Wasabi Wallet (22 March 2022)

[OROBTC]

...

I just opened Wasabi (this afternoon), and there is a note at the bottom left of the window advising that there is a new version available.  I had read earlier that a new version was coming, but it seemed further off in the future.

Has anyone checked out this "new version"?  I will download it now and take a look.  But I am not a programmer nor expert (nor etc.), so those of you who better know Wasabi might want to take a look as well.  And post any comments!

Note that I too am unhappy about Wasabi's decision to censor some UTXOs from their CoinJoin feature.  Another tool lost helping us gain privacy.



EDIT:  The download went OK, but there seems to be no obvious differences in the new version (this one is version 1.1.13.1, I do not know what the version number of the "last one" was).

I personally don't use Wasabi but the only recent update that I was able to find - according to their GitHub page - was this one : Wasabi v1.1.13.1 - Tor Update[1] (13 hours ago). It does seem to match with the version that you just updated.

According to molnard - Wasabi Developer - here's the summary of the update:

This release upgrades the built-in Tor client from v.0.4.5.10 to v0.4.6.9. There are many significant changes, that greatly increase the network stability and performance. The release also contains some rare but annoying crash fix. Make sure your Tor client is not running in the background so Wasabi can update it - the easiest way is to restart your machine and start the new version of Wasabi.

You can also check past released versions of Wasabi Wallet here[2]. If we ignore the Wasabi v2.0 TestNet release then the version previous to this one (1.1.13.1) was v1.1.13.0[3].

When in doubt just check github.
Latest version v1.1.13.1 released  on mainnet have only small Tor client update with minor bug fixes, and there is no change in interface or anything else.
If you want to test new Wasabi v2 you can do it only in testnet and download separate pre-release version 1.98.
I download it when it was initially released and I was interested in testing it... but I lost the interest after hearing the bad zkSNACKs news :/
