FWIW, the only "social network" I use to be updated about releases, beside this ML of course, is GitHub> Watch> Custom> Releases.

I have dozens (if not hundreds) of such watches, and just added one for https://github.com/boostorg/boost, for good measure, despite getting the ML notices (and why I didn't have one before).

Most such email release notices are not very informative, many with no specific information at all, some a short list, and some are awesome, like the Bun.sh ones, that systematically link to a blog post with a very detailed information.

If wanting to improve Boost communication, then please have a good description of what's in the GitHub release, and/or a link to a blog post Bun-like with full details. My $0.02. --DD

You can subscribe to Boost Downloads RSS[1] and receive the complete release notes for every release. Or News RSS[2] and also receive other news items in addition to releases. Though most of the time there are no other news and the two feeds are equivalent. [1]: https://www.boost.org/feed/downloads.rss [2]: https://www.boost.org/feed/news.rss
