### Major Changes
- decreased the decimal count of most number to reduce used space (can be changed to be like before in the settings)

### Other Changes
- on Linux/Wayland the overlay now stays above full-screen games, and carries its own buttons for picking columns and moving it around

### Fixes
- fixed auto refresh stopping to work when changing the logs path
- fixed the program crashing on Linux/Wayland when the overlay is switched on

## v1.4.0
