Release Notes for v0.75.0

New Feature: Redesigned Desktop Client

This release ships a complete rewrite of the desktop client. We went ahead and replaced the old Fyne-based tray application with a new Wails v3 app backed by a React and TypeScript frontend, and it is a massive upgrade. You get a proper main connection view, an exit-node switcher, a networks and peers browser with detail panels, profile management, full settings, debug-bundle creation, and a first-run welcome flow, all in one place instead of buried in a tray menu. #6473 by @pappz and @heisbrot

The new UI is also translated into 10 languages now, and session handling got a lot smarter, so you actually know when your session is about to expire instead of finding out the hard way. Do note that launch-on-login is now enabled by default on fresh GUI installs, so if you manage devices through MDM, the disableAutostart setting is enforced on every launch to keep that under your control.
