+## v2.5.0 - 2017-10-17
+
+For more details, [see the full changelog](https://github.com/thelounge/lounge/compare/v2.4.0...v2.5.0) and [milestone](https://github.com/thelounge/lounge/milestone/22?closed=1).
+
+If you thought the [v2.3.0 release](https://github.com/thelounge/lounge/releases/tag/v2.3.0) was big, well, v2.5.0 is even bigger! 🎉
+
+If you are a client user, you will notice that The Lounge is now using your operating system's font, and that status messages (joins, parts, nick changes, etc.) are now condensed with each other.
+
+<p align="center">
+  <img width="555" alt="Condensed status messages displaying 3 users have joined the channel, 4 users have quit, and 1 user has changed nick" src="https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/113730/31530599-a6d719f2-afaf-11e7-9b82-db0365c41c4e.png">
+  <br>
+  <em>Condensed status messages</em>
+</p>
+
+After a while, you'll realize that the client now automatically reconnects when losing network connection (farewell, `Client connection lost — Click here to reconnect`!), and that the channel backlog now automatically loads when you scroll up. Unfortunately, that last bit forced us to phase out the `/clear` command for technical reasons.
+
+If you go to the _Settings_ page, you'll notice that The Lounge now supports push notifications (yes, even on mobile, except iOS), and that you can remotely log out open sessions.
+
+<p align="center">
+  <img width="477" alt="Session list with the ability to disconnect remote sessions" src="https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/113730/31530598-a6c86b46-afaf-11e7-9272-eb742d328686.png">
+  <br>
+  <em>Current and remote sessions</em>
+</p>
+
+As a server administrator, you might be interested in a few new additions:
+
+- Themes can now be [retrieved from npm](https://www.npmjs.com/search?q=keywords%3Athelounge-theme) and installed using a new CLI command `lounge install <theme-name>`
+- Integration with LDAP has been completely refactored
+- The Lounge can now be bound to Unix sockets
+
+⚠️ Note that `--home` is now deprecated in favor of the `$LOUNGE_HOME` environment variable (or the `.lounge_home` file in the installation directory). Also, if you are running The Lounge behind a proxy (like nginx or Apache), you will need to make sure that `reverseProxy` is set to `true` and the `X-Forwarded-For` header correctly set for session listing to work correctly on the client.
+
+Enjoy! 💬
