Hi!

It is time for a new Feature release of Heroic, still not 3.0.0 though since this one will bring major refactors and a new UI upgrade, but this one is a pretty big release and brings several fixes, performance, and quality-of-life improvements.
It also upgrades Electron to v27 and Legendary to v0.20.33.

It also starts to fix several issues with the Snap package (yes, Heroic has one under the Beta branch, which will move to Stable now).
Before, Epic login, downloading wine, dxvk, and vkd3d was failing, making it impossible to play almost everything. Those should be fixed now.
But the Snap package still has some limitations: it won't be able to access Proton from Steam, gamemode, mangohud and gamescope won't work either.

As a downside of upgrading Legendary to the new version, it is not possible to Uninstall an Epic game while another Epic game is being installed. This is due to how Legendary is locking the install file so it cannot be altered or corrupted by another legendary process.
