Too frequent updates are disruptive
-
Does a text editor really, really need to download updates that often?
It’s really great, that development is so active, but probably updates should be a bit more consolidated into quarterly releases
I mean, each week I open my notepad I’m greeted with “Update available” message. It’s quite annoying
Please at least think about your update policy

Dubious.
There has been 1 release as of this writing for 2023 (~6 weeks in).
There were 12 releases in 2022.
There were 18 releases in 2021.
There were roughly 9 releases in each of 2018-2020.None of these equate to “once a week”.
“Once a month” would be more accurate – you were only off by a factor of 4.

So, turn it off.

Well, that would be an approach. Everyone has a different feeling about an approach to a release schedule.

I suppose if users like new features and bug fixes, then…yes?
