Linux stable releases link on brave.com #42435

Description

On the brave.com/linux page, could we also have at the GitHub section the changelog .md link ?

The present GitHub link gives access to all possible releases but the search engine on the page is terrible. If you need to install a specific stable release (for example after an update, if you need to temporary downgrade to your previous stable version), the link to the CHANGELOG_DESKTOP.md page would be more useful.

Steps to reproduce

  1. Visit brave.com and look for a link to reinstall a previous stable version
  2. Click on the GitHub link

Actual result

On nov 13, just after the release of the latest stable v1.73.89 , the previous stable release (1.71.123) is already 4 pages away. You have to manually scroll back and read carefully all version titles on each page until you find a version that is not nightly, not beta and not a pre-release. Image (It is now 7 pages away)

Even if you know its version number you can't find it. Image

Expected result

Find on https://brave.com/linux/#github an additional link to https://github.com/brave/brave-browser/blob/master/CHANGELOG_DESKTOP.md

Reproduces how often

Easily reproduced

Brave version (brave://version info)

It concerns the website brave.com, not a particular version of Brave When I noticed the problem (nov 13), I had the latest stable v1.73.89
