Personally I always try the latest stable release of an .iso file, as that seems to be the most efficient
strategy for me.
I downloaded an earlier .iso file:
manjaro-kde-24.0-240513-linux69.iso
I assume that manjaro-kde-24.0.3-240702-linux69.iso is more recent, so now I
know I have to download the above link, and delete the older .iso file.
It is not a huge deal to find out the downloadable link, but if I may suggest a
small change, something like a "last update" tag could be shown, that tells the
visitor when the .iso was last released. I understand that 240702 probably
refers to the time stamp, but I think it would be easier if it is also directly
shown somewhere, as text, because right now I need to use "copy link"
in thorium browser, to find out the URL.
As to where that text e. g. "last released on" should show up: I have no real
preferences or styling recommendations. It can be a super-simple text,
or it can be a bit fancier. It could be shown in the pop-over effect, or it could
be shown before seeing the pop-over. (This would probably be easier, to
show it at all times somewhere, on each downloadable .iso there. That way
the user has to do one less interaction and can still obtain that information.)
Anyway, I hope this suggestion was sufficiently small to be considered. :)
As said, how it looks, is less important to me, so that is up to people with
more aesthetics; I am more concerned about the quick functionality, e. g.
quickly show when the .iso was last released. (I am using manjaro since some
months and it is very nice, kind of like an "updated" slackware system in many
ways, or rather how I use it. I compile most from source, excluding a few key
components that I leave up to others, such as the kernel; compiling the
kernel is too annoying, but compiling many other things is super-easy and
works very well on manjaro, hence why I liken it to oldschool slackware too)

On:
https://manjaro.org/download/
you show the available downloads.
After clicking on it (the above link, for use in a browser), we can then see a download, such as the following URL:
https://download.manjaro.org/kde/24.0.3/manjaro-kde-24.0.3-240702-linux69.iso
