This is a release introducing some changes. First there is a new privacy setting you can
enable: additionally to Do-Not-Track Liferea now supports the Do-Not-Sell user data setting.

There is a major change to the enclosure (media attachments) handling. The built in media player
working on a "attachment" style list view under the item content was removed. Now enclosures
are added via HTML <audio> and <video> tags below the item content. The idea is to play those
purely with WebkitGTK support. Downloading is still supported by right clicking on those tags.

Finally a long standing issue was improved: when a feed does not provide item titles Liferea now
uses a teaser of the item content as the title. This for example fixes the usability of Mastodon feeds.
