Announcing Zotero 7, the biggest update in Zotero’s 18-year history
@zotero wahoo now makes coffee
@zotero great to hear. should I upgrade from the beta?
@zotero thanks for providing this wonderful software to the community
@zotero ...and thank you for both:
- making it free and open source software, and
- maintaining it so well for such a long time!
I'm a regular user of Zotero and I find it extremely quick and intuitive as well as customisable to my workflow!
@zotero I just downloaded it! Looks great and I am excited for all the features! Thanks a lot for all your work. It is one of my absolute favourite pieces of software:D
@zotero congratulations to the Team for this achievement
@zotero Is this update available for Linux?
@zotero nice work yall
@zotero Not sure if it was there in the old version, but upgrading (which took < 2 minutes) helped me see the top-right corner drop-down V for the open tabs:
@zotero looking forward to check the changes out!
@zotero
* wup wup*
@zotero What is Zotero?
@zotero Terrific news, thanks for all of y'all work! This also means that I can finalise getting Zotero packaged for Alpine Linux
See here for those interested! https://gitlab.alpinelinux.org/alpine/aports/-/merge_requests/60178
Nice. Now to get IT to let me update the software on my work laptop….
@zotero thank you, just loving it!
@zotero HUZZAH!! Congrats.
@zotero
Head up that this post mentions Mac and Windows, but not that there's also a Linux release available
@WebCoder49
Thanks, Oliver, I did see that. My point was to bring it to the Zotero team's attention that they neglected to mention it in their big announcement
@zotero
@_dmh @WebCoder49 Thanks, but you’re just misreading the post. We’ve always had a Linux version. We don’t mention Linux in the post because there are no Linux-specific upgrade steps. The Windows/Mac lines are just about minor caveats on those OSes.
@zotero Wow - looks great! Thanks a lot for your fantastic work from one of your long-time users!
Congrats on v7, @zotero -- one of the great open-source projects of our time!
@zotero Thank you for doing this. Just the ability to search collection names is a huge upgrade!
@zotero I'm really pleased you stuck with the Firefox back-end. Zotero 7 looks great!
@zotero The update has been a joy to use but as someone with poor eyesight the new icons are harder to read and distinguish because they're flat and have thin lines. I really appreciate the work that the Zotero team does just wanted to mention this. I could give more feedback if you want
