Pre-release
Pre-release
Major improvements:
- Created installer for Ubuntu 20.10 and its derivatives (and maybe Debian or other Ubuntu versions, depending on the version of their packages)
- Added pairing guide inside the program.
- Interface is now way more responsive
- Upgraded chat look and feel.
- Moved the configuration files from the program folder to a folder inside the user's home folder.
Known bugs:

- Some text boxes have to be adjusted to be able to show full text.

- There's a race condition on where sometimes the Assistant can't get the "Mycroft is ready" signal and gets stuck. You have to kill python3 from the system monitor.
- After pairing, it may open 2 chat windows. You can't close them because that will end completely the program.
- Settings are not persisted.
- Some debug texts should be cleaned up.
- Icons for the OS launcher does not appear.
- Sometimes the icon disappears from the taskbar, mostly after pairing. You can access the window using alt+tab.

- The program is not always following the OS theme when the desktop environment uses GTK: GNOME/LXDE/XFCE/MATE/Cinnamon. It works better when the DE uses Qt: KDE/LXQt.
- The chat should scroll to bottom when a new message arrives (as you should expect from a chat app) but it still doesn't
