What's Changed

Welcome to AliasVault v0.30.0 🎉

This release now adds support for generating passphrases (based on word dictionaries) in addition to random-character passwords in all AliasVault apps. This has been one of the most upvoted feature requests on GitHub. Click the settings icon in the password field to switch between the two, or set your preferred default for new credentials in the Password Settings.

We also updated a lot of things behind the scenes in the last couple of weeks: we revamped our self-hosted docs website to be more accessible and user friendly. We also moved our official website and communications to aliasvault.com (www.aliasvault.com), after recently acquiring this domain. User email aliases continue to use @aliasvault.net, creating a more clear distinction between official AliasVault team/support addresses (.com) and user-generated aliases (.net).

Finally, we're also hard at work on making the sync mechanism and datamodel more efficient. The work on this is well underway and will significantly improve vault synchronization performance across all apps once ready. These upcoming improvements will enable us to introduce vault sharing as well. Stay tuned!

4. You can now change default password generator settings in the browser extension via a new settings menu option, bringing it line with the other apps
