7+### Improved
8+- WebKit integration now forces GPU compositing by default while still honoring explicit config overrides.
9+- Smooth scrolling is enabled (when supported) so wheel and gesture animations feel closer to Chromium/Firefox.
10+- Title updates, zoom persistence, and domain zoom lookups are now done off the GTK main thread with results marshalled back safely, eliminating UI hitches during navigation.
11+- Added optional DOM-level zoom (enabled by default) to avoid native viewport rescaling; falls back to WebKit zoom if the CSS path fails.
12+- DOM zoom now seeds the saved level before the first paint and reuses it during document-start scripts, preventing pages from flashing back to 100%.
13+- Native accelerator bridge debounces duplicate GTK key events earlier, so Ctrl±/Ctrl+0 only fires once per physical key press.
14+- Omnibox-triggered navigations now reuse the navigation controller, so saved zoom levels are applied before first paint and redundant lookups are avoided.
15+- Configuration loading writes the missing `use_dom_zoom` flag into existing config files so DOM zoom defaults persist without manual edits.

Keyboard shortcuts

Single-key shortcuts are on. ctrl k and esc work whatever this says.

ctrl k :
go to a section, branch, tag, file or repository
?
this list
j k
move the row cursor down / up
enter
open the row under the cursor; on Files, a directory opens or closes in place
↑ ↓ ← → home end
in the file tree (focus on a row): previous / next row, close / open a directory or go to its parent / first entry, first / last row. They never open a file
l h
on Files: open a directory or a file / close a directory or go up to its parent, then to the parent page. Elsewhere: into the side panel (on a merge request, its files) / back to the content; there j k move between its controls
g g G
first / last row
/
filter the list; on Files, find a file anywhere in the repository (esc clears, enter opens the best match)
b
switch branch or tag
g s g f g c g b g m g i g r g a
tabs: summary, files, commits, branches & tags, merge requests, issues, releases, actions (when available)
g h
home
w
wide mode: use the whole width of the screen, or not (remembered)
y
copy a permalink pinned to the commit
d u x
diff: split / unified / collapse or expand all
e E
diff: the whole file in view / every file, with the lines the hunks hide
n
merge request: next note in the diff
esc
close a dialog, leave a field
