8 months ago Most importantly it needs someone to full these metadata :) We have a metainfo file, but since most of our updates are created by flathub-external-data-checker (f-e-d-c) which doesn't fetch and therefore can't fill the release information, it would require manual work to do this.
For now, I only bother with this for security releases, to add some useful information about these.
Examples: https://github.com/flathub/im.riot.Riot/pull/407
If you want to help to bring this to reality and make an impact way beyond this specific flatpak, you can work on the issues for f-e-d-c: https://github.com/flathub/flatpak-external-data-checker/issues/222
Changelogs can be displayed on Flathub and within distro app updaters, all that's needed is an
.appdata/.metainfo.xml file.See these examples of another app's appdata.xml, and how their changelog is displayed on Flathub.
