-Fluffy and functional.
+Fluffy and functional!
 
-## Functional changes
-- GH-990: Classloading in the MultiMC java launcher part is no longer crazy
+## **IMPORTANT**
 
-  This removes some really bad old code and paves the way for more improvements later.
-  If you run into any issues with Minecraft launching that weren't in **0.4.7**, please report bugs.
+- GH-1402: MultiMC will keep its binary filename after an update if you rename it.
 
-- GH-1069: LD\_LIBRARY\_PATH and LD\_PRELOAD environment variables supplied to MultiMC now don't affect MultiMC, but affect the launched game.
+  Note that this doesn't happen with this (0.4.8) update yet, because the old update method is still used.
 
-  This means you can use something like the Steam overlay in MultiMC instances on linux.
-  If you need to use these variables for MultiMC itself, you can use MMC\_LIBRARY\_PATH and MMC\_PRELOAD instead.
+  If you renamed `MultiMC.exe` for any reason, you will have to manually remove the renamed file after the update and rename the new `MultiMC.exe`.
 
-- GH-1009: MCEdit Unified on linux is now recognized properly.
+  Future updates should no longer have this issue.
 
-###UI changes
 
-- GH-1008, GH-1046, GH-1067: The log window now has a configurable limit for the number of lines remembered and whether it stops logging or forgets on the fly once the limit is breached.\
+## New featueres
 
-  This prevents the MultiMC log window from using too much memory on logging. The default limit is 100000 lines and the logging stops.
-  Minecraft logging this much is a sign of a problem that needs to be fixed.
+- GH-1047, GH-1233: MultiMC now includes basic Minecraft world management.
 
-## Internals
+  This is a new page in the console/edit instance window.
 
-- GH-1052: All the dependencies were rebuilt and the build environment upgraded to the latest compiler versions.
+  You can:
+  - Copy worlds
+  - Delete worlds
+  - Copy the world seed value
+  - Run MCEdit - the MCEdit feature has been moved here.
+
+- GH-1217: MultiMC now tracks instance play time and displays it when the instance is selected.
+
+- New buttons on the top toolbar:
+  - GH-1238: button for the [MultiMC subreddit](https://www.reddit.com/r/MultiMC/).
+  - GH-1397: button for joining the [MultiMC discord voice/chat server](https://discord.gg/0k2zsXGNHs0fE4Wm).
+
+    Both are there for you to interact with other MultiMC users and us.
+
+- GH-253, GH-1300: MultiMC can now be started with the `-l "Instance ID"` parameter, launching the specified instance directly.
+
+## Improvements
+
+- Instance list
+  - GH-1121: Instances are now selected after you create them.
+  - GH-93: When copying an instance, you can tell MultiMC to not copy the worlds.
+
+- Mod and resource pack lists
+  - GH-1237: Mod info is now clickable and selectable.
+  - GH-1322: Mod description `...` link will no longer pop up multiple dialogs.
+  - GH-1178: When dragged and dropped, folder based mods and resource packs will be copied properly on OSX.
+
+- MCEdit integration:
+  - GH-1009: MCEdit Unified on linux is now recognized properly.
+
+- Mojang login and accounts:
+  - GH-1158: An unique ID is generated on the MultiMC side before login, instead of letting the server decide.
+  - When a password is required, the user login is partially obscured.
+  - Dropdown menu on the main window now lists profiles, not accounts.
+
+- Modpacks:
+  - GH-1140: Modpack downloads now check for update on the server even if the file is alreaddy locally available.
+  - GH-1148: When creating an instance from modpack, the instance name will be guessed based on the modpack file or URL (unless you set it yourself).
+  - GH-1280: While importing modpacks, the progress dialog now says what is happening.
+  - When selecting the modpack fiels in the new instance dialog, the contents are selected for easy replacement.
+
+- Instance settings
+  - Wrapper commands now use the proper UI field and do not get replaced with pre-launch commands.
+
+- Minecraft launching:
+  - GH-1053, GH-1338: Minecraft launching has been completely redone.
+  - GH-1275: Server resource pack folder is created on launch.
+    - This is a workaround for Minecraft bug MCL-3732.
+  - GH-1320: Improve compatibility with non-Oracle Java.
+  - GH-1355: MMC environment will no longer leak into Minecraft after MultiMC updates itself.
+
+- Minecraft log:
+  - Java exception detection in Minecraft logs has been improved.
+  - GH-719: You can now use your own [paste.ee](https://paste.ee/) account for uploading logs.
+    - New [paste.ee](https://paste.ee/) settings page has been added to the global settings dialog.
+  - GH-1197: Text colors in log window now adapt to the background color.
+  - GH-1164: The censor filter could be initialized with empty values, leading to unreadable log.
+  - GH-1008, GH-1046, GH-1067: Log size limiting.
+    
+    The log window now has a configurable limit for the number of lines remembered. You can also specify whether it stops logging or forgets on the fly once the limit is breached.
 
-- GH-77, GH-1059, GH-1060: The updater used by MultiMC is no longer used or necessary.
+    This prevents the MultiMC log window from using too much memory on logging. The default limit is 100000 lines and the logging stops.
+
+    Minecraft logging this much is a sign of a problem that needs to be fixed. Any complaints should be addressed to the responsible mod authors.
+
+- Screenshot upload
+  - GH-1339: While uploading screenshots, the console window will not close (prevents a crash).
+
+- Other logs:
+  - GH-926: 'Other Logs' now has a button for removing all log files.
+  - Hidden log files are shown in 'Other logs'.
+
+- User skins:
+  - MultiMC now uses [crafatar.com](https://crafatar.com/) for skin downloads instead of the Mojang servers.
+
+- Java:
+  - GH-1365: MultiMC now supports Java 9 and its new version numbering.
+  - GH-1262: Java can now be placed in a folder relative to MultiMC's folder. This allows bundling of JREs with MultiMC.
+
+- Translations:
+  - GH-1313: Some parts of the MultiMC user interface have been marked as 'not for translation'.
+
+## Internals and internal bug fixes
+
+- GH-1052: All the dependencies were rebuilt and the build environment upgraded to the latest compiler versions.
+- GH-1051: The CDPATH environment variable is now ignored.
+- GH-77, GH-1059, GH-1060: The MultiMC updater is no longer used or necessary.
 
   It is only present to preserve compatibility with previous versions.
   Updates now work properly on Windows systems when you have unicode (like ❄, Ǣ or Ω) characters in the path.
 
-#Previous releases
+- GH-1069, GH-1100: `LD_LIBRARY_PATH` and `LD_PRELOAD` environment variables supplied to MultiMC now don't affect MultiMC, but affect the launched game.
+
+  This means you can use something like the Steam overlay in MultiMC instances on linux.
+  If you need to use these variables for MultiMC itself, you can use `MMC_LIBRARY_PATH` and `MMC_PRELOAD` instead.
+
+- GH-1389: External processes (like folder views, editors, etc.) are now started in a way that prevents the MultiMC environment to be reused by them.
+- GH-1355: If `LD_LIBRARY_PATH` contains any of MultiMC's internal folders, this will not propagate to started processes.
+- GH-1231, GH-1378: libpng is now included with the linux version of MultiMC
+- GH-1202: SSL certificates are now rebuilt on start on OSX.
+
+- GH-1303: Translations and notification cache are stored in the normal data folder now, not alongside the binaries. This only affects third party linux packaging.
+- GH-1266, GH-1301,
+- GH-1360: Development and other unstable versions of MultiMC now uses github commits instead of this manually maintained changelog.
