Mochi

Upgrade Electron

Electron and Tahoe don't play well together and Electron apps spike GPU usage.

It's fixed in Electron

  • 38.2.0
  • 39.0.0
  • and all above 39

Mochi uses 14.2.9

Any chance of uprading?

I'm not on Taho, but I've noticed a weird bug. It's regarding the top section of every deck page. All clickable areas in this region, except the bottom 5 pixels are kind of masked out by an invisible barrier. This makes buttons impossible to click, unless the mouse is hovered on the very lower parts.

I have marked the un-clickable area in red.

(Version 1.20.3-beta)

Thanks for the heads up. I will take a look at upgrading. I had been putting this off because new versions of Chromium don't work with "third party cookies" which kind of breaks the app.

Found a workaround for this. Will release a new version soon.

The link in the footer to changelog doesn't work and I can't find the release log to 1.19.6

But 1.19.6 is still using Electron 14.2.9, correct?

Yes there were other breaking changes with the upgrade that I am still working through.

Following. I had tried sending an email about this, but never heard back. Waiting for this fix before I upgrade to Tahoe.

I've just released a new beta version (v1.20.2-beta) of the Mac app that should fix the Tahoe issue. You can download it by turning on beta updates in Preferences → App Update → Beta Releases.

When you first launch the beta version it will sign you out so just you'll just need to sign back in.

Thanks for the bug report, Sayed. I noticed this myself, too.

Seems like the way that draggable regions are handled in electron has changed, causing this regression. I'll work on fixing that today.

You absolutely ROCK, Matt! It's all good now. Thanks.
