+## [1.17.0] - 2026-03-25
+
+### Added
+
+- **Media Keys & OS Media Controls** *(experimental)*: Initial integration via [souvlaki](https://github.com/Sinono3/souvlaki) — MPRIS2 on Linux, Now Playing on macOS, SMTC on Windows. Track metadata (title, artist, album, cover art) and playback state are pushed to the OS media overlay in real time. On Linux, init is skipped gracefully if no D-Bus session is present. This feature is still under active development and observation — behaviour may vary across desktop environments and OS versions.
+- **Random Mix — Artist Blacklist**: Artist names are now included in the keyword blacklist filter. Clickable artist chips in the tracklist let you add an artist to the blacklist with one click — same UX as the existing genre chips.
+- **Favorites — Remove Song**: Each song row in Favorites now has an inline X button to remove the track from favorites instantly (optimistic UI, server unstar happens in the background).
+- **3 New Themes**:
+  - *Games*: **Horde** — Durotar blood-red earth, iron-plate sidebar, forge-fire gold glow on track name.
+  - *Games*: **Alliance** — Stormwind deep navy, cathedral stone columns, paladin holy-light glow, gold sidebar trim and nav accent.
+  - *Operating Systems*: **W11** — Windows 11 Fluent Design dark mode. Mica-style sidebar, clean neutral palette, taskbar-inspired player bar. No gradients — faithful to the minimal Fluent aesthetic.
+
+### Changed
+
+- **Theme renames**: Cobalt Media → **WinMedPlayer**, Onyx Cinema → **P-DVD**, Navy Jukebox → **MuMa Jukebox**.
+- **NowPlayingDropdown**: Username / player name row now uses `--text-secondary` for improved readability across all themes.
+
+### Fixed
+
+- **Performance — App-wide interaction lag**: Removed `[data-theme='X'] * { font-family: ... !important }` universal selectors from several themes (DOS, Unix, and others). The browser places universal selectors in the "universal bucket" and checks them against every DOM node on every style recalculation — measurably sluggish with 500–1000+ elements even when the affected theme is not active. `font-family` is now set on the theme root block (inherits to children) with a targeted `button, input, textarea, select` override for elements that don't inherit font.
+- **Performance — Scroll jank**: Removed `repeating-linear-gradient` / `repeating-radial-gradient` from `.app-shell` in DOS, Unix, GW1, Morpheus, Aqua Quartz, and others. WebKitGTK with `WEBKIT_DISABLE_COMPOSITING_MODE=1` (always set by the AUR wrapper) has no GPU compositing — fine-pitch repeating patterns on the full-viewport background re-rasterize every scroll frame. Patterns are now applied only to `.sidebar` and `.player-bar`, which never scroll.
+- **Contrast — 29 themes**: Audited all themes against WCAG AA. Fixed `--text-muted` and `--text-secondary` values in 29 themes that had insufficient contrast ratios (< 3.5:1). Affects Catppuccin (all four variants), Gruvbox (all six), Nord variants, GW1, Heisenberg, Ice and Fire, Spider-Tech, Morpheus, Hill Valley 85, Dune, and others.
+
+### Removed
+
+- **Theme**: Azerothian Gold removed from the Games group.
+
+---
+
+## [1.16.0] - 2026-03-24
+
+### Added
+
+- **15 New Themes** across multiple categories:
+  - *Operating Systems*: **Aqua Quartz** — Mac OS X Aqua (skeuomorphic jelly buttons, brushed aluminium player bar, pinstripe background, blue Source List sidebar, authentic `#3876f7` accent)
+  - *Movies*: **Spider-Tech** (Spider-Man navy/red), **T-800** (Terminator Skynet blue), **B-Runner** (Blade Runner 2049 amber), **Hill Valley 85** (Back to the Future)
+  - *Games*: **TetraStack** (Tetris 8-bit, cyan, grid background, 0px radii)
+  - *Series*: **Turtle Power** (TMNT turtle green, brick tile sidebar)
+  - *Social Media* (new group): **Insta** (Instagram dark pink), **ReadIt** (Reddit dark orange-red), **The Book** (Facebook light, blue sidebar)
+  - *Operating Systems*: **W3.1** (Windows 3.1, light silver/teal, 0px radii, inset bevels)
+  - *Mediaplayer*: **Jayfin** (Jellyfin-inspired — deep black, purple `#AA5CC3` primary, cyan `#00A4DC` secondary, brand gradient on player bar and progress fill)
+- **Aqua Quartz — Full Skeuomorphic Polish**: All button variants (`.btn-surface`, `.btn-ghost`, `.hero-play-btn`, `.album-card-details-btn`, `.queue-round-btn`) now have the authentic Aqua jelly gradient. Sidebar sports the iconic blue Source List gradient with white icons and a white pill for the active nav link.
+
+### Changed
+
+- **W98 Theme — Complete Overhaul**: Rebuilt from scratch with authentic Windows 98 design language: correct `#d4d0c8` warm-gray button face (not flat `#c0c0c0`), full 4-layer 3D bevel on all panels and buttons (raised default, sunken on press), song title displays in the iconic navy→light-blue title bar gradient, progress bar is a sunken white trough with navy fill, 16px styled scrollbar, all hover/active states consistently navy `#000080` + white text.
+- **Theme Picker — Alphabetical Order**: All theme groups and themes within groups are now sorted alphabetically.
+- **Theme Picker — Group Rename**: "Psysonic Themes — Mediaplayer" renamed to "Mediaplayer".
+- **Sidebar + Queue Toggle Buttons**: Queue toggle button now uses the theme accent color (icon + hover).
+
+### Fixed
+
+- **AlbumDetail — Genre not propagating**: Playing via the album detail Play All / Enqueue All buttons now correctly includes the track genre in the constructed Track objects, making it show up in the Queue strip.
+- **W98 — Theme Accordion active state**: Open category headers are now navy with white text instead of black-on-navy.
+- **Aqua Quartz — Sidebar section labels**: "Library" / "System" labels now render in white on the blue sidebar.
+- **W98 — Connection indicators**: Server name and Last.fm username in the header are now black (`#000000`) on the warm-gray background for full readability.
+
+### Removed
+
+- **Themes**: Removed **Pandora**, **Order of the Phoenix**, and **Imperial Sith** — too similar to other better-executed themes in their respective groups.
+
+---
+
+## [1.15.0] - 2026-03-23
+
+### Added
+
+- **Queue — Genre · Format · Bitrate Strip**: The meta box above the queue now shows a full-width frosted strip with Genre, audio format, and bitrate (e.g. `Electronic · FLAC · 1411 kbps`). Genre is sourced directly from track metadata and is now propagated through all 11 track construction sites across the codebase.
+- **Lyrics — Accent Color Highlight**: The active synced lyrics line is now highlighted in the theme accent color instead of bold+larger text. Eliminates layout jumps caused by the font-weight change pushing lines to wrap.
+
+### Fixed
+
+- **Sidebar — Collapse Button**: The collapse button now correctly sits on the right border of the sidebar, straddling the dividing line between sidebar and main content, and is always visible.
+
+### Changed
+
+- **Queue — Tech Info**: Codec/bitrate badge replaced by the new full-width Genre · Format · Bitrate strip at the top of the meta box.
