# Changelog
## [Unreleased]
-### Changed
+### Breaking changes
- Removed deprecated `--json` parameter, use `--output=json` instead
+- Removed deprecated fallback data paths, only `$XDG_DATA_HOME/signal-cli` is used now
+ For those still using the old paths (`$HOME/.config/signal`, `$HOME/.config/textsecure`) you need to move those to the new location.
## [0.8.5] - 2021-08-07
### Added
$XDG_DATA_HOME/signal-cli/data/
$HOME/.local/share/signal-cli/data/
-For legacy users, the old config directories are used as a fallback:
-
- $HOME/.config/signal/data/
- $HOME/.config/textsecure/data/
-
## Building
This project uses [Gradle](http://gradle.org) for building and maintaining
