LBRY 0.10 - The Omnibar Edition

This release includes major changes to the look and feel of the app. The left menu and search box are gone, replaced by a browser-like bar at the top of the page. The homepage is redesigned to highlight several popular categories of content. On first run, the app offers a (very brief) tutorial on what you can do, and rewards you for trying out new features (rewards require an invite at the moment, to prevent abuse).

Under the hood, the app is faster and more responsive. The latest daemon brings improvements in reliability and caching of name resolutions, among other things.
