The update with change of Adaptive Sync’s placement on Sodium Extra has been released.

Amazing! As an extra, I didn’t notice much difference (on the previous release so far) in frame responsiveness using the adaptive sync checkmark while running Linux. I am using X11, and will do further tests on Linux and Windows with the new release soon.

Added in 3.13.0 and 4.2.0, but reverted in 3.13.1 and 4.2.1 because of issues with some graphics drivers. The option is still there so feel free to use it if it works for you.
