Increase feature awareness by adding a "Did you know tooltip" or link to the blog web site in changelog #1205

In our survey I'm finding lots of users unaware of our existing features such as getters/setters as well as code completion shortcuts such as psvm, etc.

I'm thinking of two things, adding something like a popup such as "Did you know you can ...." but this can be disruptive to the user.

In the meantime, we can add a link at the top of the changelog that links to our blog that hints to our users that highlights our features every month. I found our current changelog only contains technical details that won't be super helpful to end users.

Getters/setters are still hard to find - found throughout 2023 survey
