Settings dropdowns (Bug #3):
- Add reusable SettingsSelect component using Menu+PopOut+FocusTrap — exact
same pattern as Message Layout, so all dropdowns look consistent
- Replace raw <select> for Seasonal Theme, UI Font, AFK Timeout, and
Join & Leave Sounds with SettingsSelect
Animated chat backgrounds bleeding onto content (Bug #6 / #7):
- Remove filter:brightness() and opacity animations from chatBackground.ts
(animRainGlowKeyframe, animGridBrightnessKeyframe, animFirefliesGlowKeyframe,
animFirefliesBlinkKeyframe). These were applied to the Page element which
caused ALL descendants (messages, composer) to flash in sync.
Also created a CSS stacking context on Page that pushed SeasonalEffect
(position:fixed; z-index:9997) behind the animated background layer.
- Only backgroundPosition / backgroundSize animations remain — safe, do not
affect descendants, and do not create stacking contexts.
- Remove now-unused animation keyframe imports from chatBackground.ts.
Voice ringing in persistent rooms (Bug #5):
- Narrow the ringing condition from (Invite|Knock|Restricted) to only Invite,
matching exactly the rooms where the call button is visible.
- Add room.isCallRoom() early-exit so m.join_rule:call rooms never ring.
Avatar decoration images not loading (Bug #8):
- Change loading="lazy" → loading="eager" in DecorationPreviewCell.
Lazy loading does not reliably trigger for images inside nested overflow
scroll containers (the settings panel scroll area), so images never loaded.

Adds 11 CSS-only seasonal overlays (Halloween, Christmas, New Year, Autumn,
April Fool's, Lunar New Year, Valentine's Day, St. Patrick's Day, Earth Day,
Deep Space, Retro Arcade) with date-based auto-detection and a manual override
dropdown in Settings → Appearance → Seasonal Theme. All themes respect
prefers-reduced-motion. SeasonalEffect mounts at z-index 9997 in App.tsx.
Also rewrites all 5 animated chat background keyframes for smoother, more
organic motion: Digital Rain gains a phosphor glow flicker; Star Drift now
loops each layer by exactly its own tile size (no more seam); Grid Pulse adds
an independent brightness oscillation at a prime period; Aurora Flow drives
all four gradient layers through distinct paths; Fireflies adds glow-pulse and
opacity-blink animations at prime periods for unsynchronised bioluminescence.

ESLint: UploadCardRenderer.tsx had two separate imports from
../../utils/matrix — merged tryDeleteMxcContent into the existing
import statement. Removed now-unnecessary eslint-disable directive from
chatBackground.ts (the _anim prefix already suppresses the rule).
Glassmorphism: the Scroll inside SidebarNav had variant="Background"
which set a solid backgroundColor on the entire scrollable area,
completely hiding the sidebar's semi-transparent glass + backdrop-filter.
Fix: pass variant={undefined} when glassmorphismSidebar is on so the
inner scroll area is transparent and the blur effect is visible through
it. The document.body background (set by the previous useEffect fix)
now shows through the frosted glass as intended.

5 new CSS-only animated backgrounds in the chat background picker:
- Digital Rain: two-layer vertical stripe scroll with parallax (wide
stripes at 8s, narrow at 4s via single keyframe with split positions)
- Star Drift: three-layer radial-gradient star field drifting diagonally
- Grid Pulse: neon grid lines that expand/contract (backgroundSize keyframe)
- Aurora Flow: large radial gradient bands sweeping across 200% canvas
- Fireflies: three layers of glowing dots drifting across the viewport
All use vanilla-extract keyframes (GPU-composited transforms/positions,
no canvas, no JS timers). prefers-reduced-motion is respected in
getChatBg() by stripping the animation property at call time. A "Pause
Background Animations" toggle in Settings → Appearance provides an
in-app override for the same purpose.
BG labels de-duplicated ("Digital Rain", "Star Drift", "Aurora Flow")
to avoid the duplicate "Stars" and "Aurora" entries that had appeared.
LIGHT anim-fireflies background corrected from near-black #0a0a10 to
warm white #fffdf0. Four unused keyframe exports removed from
Animations.css.ts.

Prettier: auto-formatted 103 files to fix baseline. Prettier check in CI
is now a hard gate (removed continue-on-error).
Brotli: installed libnginx-mod-http-brotli-filter/static. Enabled in nginx
with brotli_static on for pre-compressed assets and comp_level 6.
Sentry releases: deploy script now exports VITE_APP_VERSION=<git-short-sha>
before building so each Sentry release maps to an exact commit.
CI also passes github.sha as VITE_APP_VERSION.

- WelcomePage: use official Lotus.png instead of generated SVG
- Hex Grid background: proper pointy-top hexagons via SVG data URI (was
just triangles from linear-gradient trick)
- Boot sequence: Matrix-specific messages (TLS cert, E2EE Olm/Megolm,
cross-signing, media proxy, /help hint)
- Terminal mode CSS: nav right border, header bottom glow, kbd TDS key
style, abbr cyan underline, time amber color, img hover cyan outline,
explicit body color anchor
