11 - Linked devices can be managed via dbus
12 - New dbus methods sendTyping and sendReadReceipt (Thanks @JtheSaw)
13 - New dbus methods submitRateLimitChallenge, isRegistered, listDevices, setExpirationTimer, sendContacts, sendSyncRequest, uploadStickerPack, setPin and removePin (Thanks @John Freed)

29 ### Breaking changes
30 - Removed deprecated `--json` parameter, use global parameter `--output=json` instead
