We should mention https://github.com/readthedocs/readthedocs.org/pull/9815 since we forgot about this in the January newsletter

• _readthedocs/ output directories
• rclone upload speedups
• CORS security tightening
• default branch bug fixed :100:

Potential issues:

• jQuery removal
• Build outputs? Seems we just hit one, so could be fair to mention
