Floccus: Help needed: v4.2.0 beta

[marcelklehr]

Hello everyone,

it's time for a new release. The focus of my work has been the user experience this time: The code for the floccus UI has been largely untouched since v1.0 and it was never too beautiful to begin with. This is now in the past, however, as I've refactored the whole UI using vuetify and Vue.js under the hood to address many annoyances with the old UI.

Please find the beta version for testing here: https://github.com/marcelklehr/floccus/releases/tag/v4.2.0-beta.4

I just loaded the addon as temporary addon in firefox and started a sync with nextcloud server. It just worked with no issues. The UI looks nice by the way.
Thanks for your work!
