v0.17.0 — 2026-07-18

Added

• Synced lyrics now display over the Queue cover art, following the playing track line by line.

• A Lyrics toggle joins the player-bar modes (hotkey L), with a matching Settings row.

• Lyrics resolve from a local store, then your server’s OpenSubsonic lyrics, then LRCLIB.

• Fetched lyrics cache into ~/.local/share/nokkvi/lyrics/ and resolve offline afterwards.

• An online-fetch setting gates the LRCLIB channel for privacy.

• The lyric column glides between lines with eased motion, snapping on seeks.

• With crossfade on, the old track’s lyrics dissolve out as the next track’s fade in.

• The over-cover visualizer keeps playing underneath the lyrics instead of yielding to them.

• A Lyrics: Cover Blur setting frosts the cover behind the lyrics, Off through Heavy.

• A small school of fish now drifts through the mid-water of the Trawl scene, above the seabed and below the waterline.

• Kelp beds now sway along the Trawl seabed, taller clusters on each flank and shorter loners toward the middle.

• A stream of bubbles now rises from the dragged anchor, aerating the bed as the trawl works across the floor.

• Rock mounds and a resting starfish now settle on the Trawl scene’s seabed floor.

• A slatted cargo crate now lies tilted on the Trawl scene’s right seabed.

• The Trawl scene’s night water now feels lit by the moon.

• Once in a while a long inked serpent glides across the Trawl scene’s deep water, then vanishes.

• The Trawl scene’s daytime waterline catch-light and shimmer now gild in sun gold, recolored from the starlight they drew at night.

• Sparse glitter now flashes on the Trawl scene’s daytime water beneath the sun.

• Some cycles a tiny hazed sail now crosses the far swell behind the longship by day, bobbing with the distant water.

• Rarely the Trawl night sky opens an invisible black hole, and nearby stars spiral in, shrink to nothing, then get spat back into place.

• The Trawl scene’s moon now rests as a bare disc, faceless between dreams.

• Once at every launch, and rarely after, the Trawl scene’s sky slips into a short ritual that calls a face onto its disc.

• The face builds mark by mark as each carved verse arrives, the grin appearing first.

• When the dream ends the marks leave in reverse, the strap first and the grin lingering last before the disc is bare again.

• The moon dream’s four carved verses ship untranslated, left to whoever cares to read them.
