Yeah, why is that article the pinned post and not the real thing (I'm the first to submit it a few minutes ago, no cross-posting info displayed by Lemmy)?
No one had posted the actual patch notes yet when I pinned this, and the headline on this one covers what's probably the most significant news item about this update.
Personally I really like reading the patch notes directly, but it seems like usually it's the articles talking about the changes like this that get more traction on lemmy and other sites. I think having the patch notes directly linked in a comment here is a nice middle ground of having the higher traction headline/article and the more info rich patch notes both easily accessible.
