Me too. This is also fueled by the fact that there are no admin tools for announcing releases, and you can't set notifications for any new message in a community, and the releases are announced in a community.

Head to the lemmy github and subscribe to the releases email and you'll get one when a new version is out.

(And, unlike SOME projects I'm subbed to, they don't do anything that generates a ton of spam, so it really is just one-email-per-release.)

You can pin a post instance wide

This doesn't help an admin of an instance to identify that a new release has occurred, though.

Ah, misread your question. The other comment with the email from the Github should address your question.
