We are excited to share some important changes in this release that enhance user experience and streamline communication.
New Features
The default template for new repositories has been updated from Minimal to Timeline. This change means that new projects will now automatically adopt a more visually engaging format, better suited for displaying your project's progress and updates.
Email Communication Improvements
We have refined our email templates to improve clarity and professionalism. The personalized greetings have been removed, allowing emails to get straight to the point. This change was applied to 14 different user-facing email templates, making them appear cleaner and more focused.
Furthermore, we've enhanced the onboarding experience within the welcome email by adding a prompt for users to connect to GitHub if they haven't done so yet. This encourages a smoother start for new users, guiding them on how to effectively use our features.
Fixes and Adjustments
Several adjustments were made to ensure more reliable functionality. For instance, links in emails now direct users to entries via their slugs instead of IDs, preventing potential "not found" errors.
Overall, these updates aim to provide a more cohesive and user-friendly experience as you navigate our platform.
