- moved min Firefox version to Firefox ESR 102 (needed for "browser.scripting" API)
- optimized build script to be much faster and produce smaller size build (split into more chunks)

- fixed bad overflow of long multi-page dials inside a List layout group (now their max height is limited to viewport size plus can be correctly scrolled)
- fixed race condition bug when adding page to dials and duplicate already exists but wrong group is opened and wrong dial is marked
- failed favicons download won't be retried anymore (or not that often)
- fixed timer dial UI when dial is too small

Release 21.9 - 22.1
- fixed and upgraded build script by using native WebWorkers
New "Timer dial" is now available:
- it supports Countdown, Alarm and Stopwatch
- Pro version allows unlimited amount of timers (free version has 2)

- "Export also thumbnails" is now possible with a single click! Thanks to new optional "downloads" permission (which allows asynchronous downloads when exporting thumbnails from IndexedDB)
- fixed setting transparent background for special dials (text dial, timer dial, etc...)
- fixed Top Sites dial not loading all pages
- fixed initial import from Top Sites (to include more pages)
- added token refresh (so that you don't get logged out)
- fixed issue where live dials would reload after closing any tab / window
- added experimental thumbnails generation improvement by faking visibility state in the page
- fixed button "Add x pages as Multi-dial" in dynamic layout
- old DB images are now cleaned up only once in 15 days
- fixed catching errors during server sync (it's good if it fails)
- removed not working GROUP_ACTIVATION_DELAY option
- removed 128px previews from public images (they are about to be deleted from server)
- fixed upcoming Firefox 109 issue with not visible browser action icon
- updated libs and translations (thank you!)

- added two new Resize options for dials for Pro users - Horizontal half and Vertical half (two dials side by side)
- big upgrade of reloading all thumbnails:
1) no more screenshots of spinners
2) thumbnails are now generated for normal dials first, then for group dials (backwards) - this allows us to create perfect group dials thumbnails!
3) group dials thumbnails are now created separately, if they are not from the same group - this also allows us to create perfect thumbnails!
4) we no longer need to activate each group to make the reload
- fixed bad scheduling of parent reload when reloading all thumbnails

- added new Pro feature - Options synchronization and backup - you can now synchronize your Options across all devices OR manually backup your options to the cloud (for example to backup your Android settings)
- added option to disable Dials synchronization (this will also allow you to have different dials on different devices while keeping access to PRO features, but your data won't be backed-up!)
- fixed broken thumbnails generation on Chrome when using High DPI monitor with OS scaling applied
- fixed bad dial name when replacing same dial with same page (but different URL)
- fixed issue with disappearing separators from context menu
- auto-reload won't create new invisible window in Firefox when reloading group-dial

- Context menu can be now customized (you can remove things you don't need, see Options page / Context menu)
- you can now enable "Show list of groups in context menu for fast insert", see github issue
- added "Move dial" to context menu - to Cut / Copy / Move dial (this will allow you to move dials on Android!)
- when using Drag and Drop to move dials, you can now use "Ctrl" key to copy dial and "Shift" key to replace target dial
- fixed detection of Ctrl + GSD addon
- fixed race condition in "Ctrl + Shift + F" search
- fixed race condition when pasting text in "Search Dial" input

- added import of Bookmarks and topSites for new users
- added new Pro feature Row color / Column color, to help you visually distinguish dials
- added option to use F4 key to open dials page in current tab (basically a hotfix for broken "Alt + Home" hotkey: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1615977)
