this version brings many visual improvements and a completely revamped "about" tab.

what's new in "about" tab:

• all information is now split into collapsible sections, making it easier to navigate.
• added privacy policy to further prove that none of your data is collected.
• added emoji to the page title to make it look consistent with other pages.
• added mastodon account handle and link.
• there are now short notes at the end of each section.
• other changes that are too small to describe. just go check it out!

visual improvements:

• less wasted space: paddings and margins have been reduced and optimized for usability, consistency, and overall beauty.
• all links are now in italic. it's much easier to tell them apart from regular highlights.
• error popup no longer looks broken and out of place.
• download popup now has a proper close button, not something from 2.x era.
• emoji are no longer selectable or draggable.
• better scalability: desktop layout for home screen is shown if device viewport is wide enough to fit in three action buttons.
• page shouldn't look broken on phones in landscape mode (i still highly recommend using cobalt in portrait mode).
• removed bulletpoint padding. it was unnecessary.
• updated some service names.

as always, you can suggest features or report bugs on any platform listed in the "support" section of about tab.

thank you for using cobalt. i hope you have a good day :)
