    That’s not what I’m asking here, I’m asking you what you find interesting about the release. :D

      Sharing release log is not all about what “I” find as interesting. It is rather a notification to all other users of the software that a list of new features or big fixes are now available.

      Not all of us are actively tracking release cycle of tools we use.

      Each of us have our own use cases. What I might find trivial, another person who frequent this forum might find really helpful.

      If you are not interested in the same software or not intended to use it or not using it currently, feel free to skip the post.

        I disagree with everything, but let’s focus on the quote here. It’s not that simple! I might use the software, and I would be interested in a new release if it had something exciting. But a lot of releases do not.

        The very fact that “software X version Y released!” is posted here signals to me that there’s something special that you are reacting to.

        It’s clear to me that you are just release dumping here though. It contributes to the noise of the community, in my personal opinion. (And in my experience, lots of people agree.)

        That’s what package managers are for, though. Or add the GitHub repo to your RSS reader if you want the details.

        Lemmy is a social media, like others have mentioned in this thread I don’t mind this type of post nearly as much if the person posting adds their opinion/analysis/summary.
