What do you think about toggling on the release-SNAPSHOT builds in FS? They are already available in auc and owut by default, seems like it's just a roadblock for people who want to use FS to do the same job.

It's hidden so no regular user breaks the system thinking it's fine to install something unreleased.

Feel free to use the GitHub page here with snapshots enabled, however it does not show 24.10 since it not in the .versions.json file.

Oh, yeah, I forgot about that one.

Ok, so how about adding them as Danger-24.10-SNAPSHOT and so on as their labels, then sort the list so they are at the bottom. Also add a comment about "Release SNAPSHOT builds are potentially dangerous, use at your own risk". That seems like it would be good enough to instill some hesitation into people so they do their homework before blindly installing them.

Same should be done for MAIN SNAPSHOT in my opinion, as that is even more dangerous to use compared to RELEASE SNAPSHOTs.

How about we add https://openwrt.github.io/firmware-selector-openwrt-org/ to the github project description? This has snapshots enabled. But normal users should not be exposed to snapshots.

efahl commented 16 hours ago

Sure, that would be good enough for me. Add a bit of verbiage "advanced users blah blah snapshots can brick your device..."
