Manifold announces major, game-changing updates (and medium-to-minor ones) on a Discord channel and a spot called "Changelog" that is linked on the About page.

There is no notification anywhere on the regular site to tell users major changes have happened.

Many of these changes/updates are extremely important to your mana balance, future actions, trading rules, and the entire economy. I think it is extremely important that all site users at least have the opportunity to read these updates instead of tucking them away on Discord.

It is really, really bad for users to be wandering around wondering what has changed with no idea where to look, or even what has changed.

I have asked Manifold directly at least X times since August 2023 and the best I've gotten is they started the changelogs page. I think I've heard at least once that it's pretty unlikely they will add an "update dropped" notification bubble anywhere on the site.

WHOEVER COMES UP WITH A SCHEME THAT CONVINCES THEM TO DO IT GETS THE BOUNTY. If it's not clear who managed it, we'll figure out a fair way. Comment here with what you're trying to do and how you think you can get them to do it. (I'm out of ideas.)

Please contribute more mana to the bounty if you like the idea because I feel like this is worth way more than 1000 mana, but I've been using up all my mana on these things over the last few days....
