This is just an example, but there really needs to be a way to make sure they post a proper changelog... Like, is there a limitation on characters? Can't we set up a way to import the release notes from Github? Why is it this way?

Yeah, worse even, they started this unhelpful what's new message rage as far as I know. First time I saw it, I laughed, thought it was ironic coming from Google in their own store, but since then many others started doing it to so it can be fully automated in the most simplistic way possible abd not gaving to mention updates that are actually in your disadvantage... It is becoming a problem. Even Discord (who used to make hilariously funny What's New's) just tells you to check the new stuff in the app after updating it now... Kinda defeats the whole point, tbh.
