📺 YouTube Mode
Kaset now includes a full native client for regular YouTube, living alongside YouTube Music and switched with a Liquid Glass source toggle at the bottom of the sidebar (thanks @btopn!).
- Native browsing: recommended Home, Search (video/channel/playlist filters), Explore, Subscriptions, Shorts, Watch Later, Liked Videos, Playlists, and History — all in adaptive card grids.
- Personalized Home: Continue Watching and personalized topic rails, watched-progress bars on video thumbnails, and an ambient color backdrop on the watch page. Continue Watching refreshes automatically after you finish a video.
- Native playback: a source-adaptive player bar with seek-on-hover, like/dislike, Watch Later, AirPlay, closed captions, quality menus, full view, and picture in picture.
- Watch page: two-column layout with metadata, subscribe, and a full comments section (post, like/dislike, reply threads) alongside a related rail.
- Shorts: vertical snap-paging autoplay player.
- Pop-out window: aspect-locked video with hover chrome, real fullscreen, and dock-back-on-exit — plus a setting to disable video pop-out on back.
🎚️ Apple Music-Style Player Bar
The player bar has been redesigned into an Apple Music-style scrubber for a cleaner, more familiar transport across both sources.
💾 Save Queue as Playlist
Save your current playback queue as a new private playlist, plus queue edit-mode improvements: per-row removal of duplicates, a remove-duplicates action, and tidier icon-only footer controls (thanks @cacuscacus!).
🐛 Fixes and improvements
- Fixed media-key "next" replaying the same song while the app was backgrounded (thanks @Endiruslan!)
- Fixed listening history not recording on Brand accounts (music and video)
- Liquid Glass sidebar now slides under the content

🪟 Mini Player
Kaset now has a native mini player that floats above your other windows (thanks @ComicBit!).
🎚️ Playback Audio Quality
A new General setting lets you choose between Auto, Low, Normal, and High audio quality.
📌 Sidebar Pinning, Uploaded Songs & Better Playlists
Pin playlists and albums to the sidebar with persistent ordering, browse your uploaded songs as a virtual Library tile, and enjoy richer playlist/album detail pages with background continuation loading so the rest of the tracks fill in automatically.
Shuffle is now materialized into the visible queue (and restorable to the original order), the player bar gains a current-song context menu and smoother seek hover behavior, and home recommendations are now personalized first with public Explore as a fallback (thanks @iWajdi!).
❤️ Inline Likes & Explicit Badges
Every track row now shows a one-click thumbs-up — filled red when liked, outline on hover — and an "E" badge next to explicit titles, across playlists, search, history, artist pages, queue, and more (thanks @buggerman!).
🎙️ Smarter Podcasts Tab
The Podcasts tab now hides itself in regions where YouTube Music doesn't offer the discovery surface, so you no longer hit a generic 404 — and it re-appears automatically when you switch regions (thanks @baltarifcan!).
🐛 Fixes and improvements
- Fixed the light/dark app icon variants so the dark icon actually ships (thanks @panzer-ui!)
- Corrected Indonesian localization string mappings
- Documented the new play video AppleScript command (thanks @danieltsam!)
- Added an ad-hoc signing fallback to compile_and_run so unsigned local builds work out of the box (thanks @Shikrenov!)
- Release builds are now signed with the Apple Development certificate to fix Gatekeeper friction
- Dropped a wall-clock race in the library refresh-while-loading test (thanks @buggerman!)
