This release brings a new native macOS launcher, browser swipe navigation, and input source switching for Korean, Chinese and Japanese Macs 💻

You can upgrade by replacing the app with the new TryOmarchy.dmg. Your VM and its files are kept, and Omarchy inside the VM keeps updating with omarchy update.

Features

• Two-finger swipes go back and forward in browsers, like on the Mac by @sscarduzio, @themartiano in [#401], [#412]
• Caps Lock is the 한/영 key on Korean Macs by @AI-Dico, @themartiano in [#404], [#410]
• Omarchy's input method follows the Mac's input source for Chinese and Japanese, and Globe switches it while the VM is focused by @themartiano in [#411]
