Blokada v2.0 is out!

Yes, Blokada v2.0 is out! With the source in the open! :smiley:

This is a very important release for several reasons:

  • Blokada is an open source project now. This has a lot of consequences - you can read about them here!
  • Translations are supported , and v2.0 comes with 6 languages straight out of the box! Expect more in future releases (we have German and Dutch in the pipeline). You can also help translating the app to your language!
  • Code has been heavily refactored for better reliability, less battery use, easier contributions and future development.

Note that despite you wonโ€™t see many changes on the outside, the majority of the codebase is rewritten, and this is the first release with the new code. So, some growing pains are expected, which I will be fixing as we discover them. That said, unless you like living on the edge, you may wanna stay out of 2.0 for some time :wink:

A bit more detailed changelog for v2.0:

  • Blokada now speaks Spanish, Portuguese, French, Polish and Czech!
  • Significant rewrite for better stability
  • Fixed Blokada turning itself off and never on again
  • Improved Start on Boot
  • Optimized code to improve battery life
  • A lot of work done for easier contributions
  • Bufixes
