3. Streamlined Workflow: New quick-add keyboard shortcuts (for tags, projects, reminders) and improved drag-and-drop functionality simplify task creation.

4. Accessibility and Customization: Markdown support, better keyboard navigation, and the ability to create sections directly from Quick Add improve accessibility and user preferences.

5. Performance and Synchronization: Performance optimizations and improved Nextcloud synchronization address previous bugs and improve resource usage.
