I tend to look at release changelogs a lot and they also pop up directly on the github.com "For you" tab. I was wondering why there are no detailed release notes on https://github.com/ProtonMail/WebClients/releases ?

Thanks for the suggestion. We haven't had time to do the integration with github to also include the changelog. As a workaround you could go into the tag and open the CHANGELOG.md file for the released version, e.g. https://github.com/ProtonMail/WebClients/blob/proton-mail%405.0.17.9/applications/mail/CHANGELOG.md

We're also considering moving the changelog to be hosted on a separate project which would complicate keeping them in sync. Also note that all applications don't have a changelog e.g. account and vpn settings.

Sorry, are you saying your teams are thinking of intentionally complicating the changelogs for releases?

I'm saying we're considering moving the changelog to be hosted outside of this repository to be more easily accessible and up-to-date with accurate information for users.
