Since I regularly miss new Navidrome releases I have created a bot that automatically checks Navidrome’s github page for new releases and publishes to a Mastodon account if a new release is available.
You can follow the account here: https://mastodon.social/@navidrome_releases
Pro tip: If you click the little bell icon on its profile page, you’ll get a notification for every post.
Well, if you have a GitHub account you can be notified about new releases with one click. And if you don’t, just use the RSS like it’s the 00’s ;)
Sure you can do that. I’m just not paying much attention to Github notifications a lot in general and my chances of noticing a post on the fediverse are higher. The bot actually uses the github atom feed for releases, so it’s a glorified feed reader, anyway :) Anyway, it’s just a tool, if you find it useful, go for it, if not that’s fine, too…
