I had a great week. There's a mix of work.
v636 was the last release with a macOS App. Please check that release, https://github.com/hydrusnetwork/hydrus/releases/tag/v636 , for information on how to convert a macOS App install to a source install!
Full changelog:

new UI navigation
Thanks to a user, we have several new UI navigation quality of life features:
A normal media viewer now has a 'show random' button in the top hover window, next to the previous/next stuff. It does a pure random navigation, not a shuffle. Right-clicking the button will undo!
The Main GUI's 'pages' menu now has a 'history' submenu, which tracks the tabs you have recently gone through, in that order.
Users who use multiple simultaneous media viewers have a new shortcut to highlight the media viewer's current media+page from the media viewer, this time without closing the media viewer.
duplicates
options->duplicates has a new 'auto-commit completed batches of this size or smaller' setting. It defaults to '1', so if you get a 1/1 group, you'll now just click through it, no annoying interstitial commit prompt. You can try boosting it to 3 or 5 if you like, or just turn it off.
The 'show some random pairs' button is now nicely asynchronous and will not block the UI.
Duplicates auto-resolution has better OR support inside 'test A or B' comparators.
There's two new hardcoded comparators, for 'both files have the same "has exif/icc profile" value'.
And there's another new comparator that does an OR of a list of comparators it owns.
I've used some of this tech to re-do and merge the suggested auto-resolution rules a little. We are narrowing in on what I want this system to look like for 'launch'. If you have been following this stuff closely, please check the changelog.
some other stuff
Huge file deletes should be a bit smoother, and if they take a long time, a file progress popup appears.
Export Folders get two new checkboxes to handle sidecar file regeneration, either just on the next run or on every run.
If you are a downloader creator, check the changelog. I worked on a bunch of technical stuff.
The Client API can now fetch potential duplicate pairs with a sort and 'group mode'.
next week[Expand Post]
I want a boring cleanup week. There's some help documentation I want to get to, as well.
