Hi everyone! We're hard at work finishing up some polish on 2.13, including some major startup speed improvements (compared to the last dev/preview builds at least!), OpenModelDB, and more.
Last year we added a fun little (optional) holiday feature by adding Santa hats to the Civitai model browser images. This year we are lacking in ideas for a "holiday-themed" feature, and would love to hear some suggestions from you folks! Ideally we don't want to make a big performance impact ...

Hey all, apologies for the late post on this update, mostly fixes and some compatibility improvements on macOS. The last build (6afe2ef) for this version should have been available on auto-update and the website since around last week.
