Zotero 8 beta 2 bug

Hi, I read that the new zotero 8 builds might be a bit buggy at first. This might be known already but I've found that if I click on anything in the view menu, it works fine, but after that, the view menu won't work until I restart zotero.

Oh just got a notification telling me the reference I'm adding is a duplicate of something already in my library. This must be a new feature? Amazing, I've been wanting that for ages!

No, that's from a plugin you installed.

Ah ok thanks.
