For instance, why do you have "skip CI] ([" in change log entries like this? I assume you tagged something to "skip continuous integration" and it paired up the wrong square brackets?

Most people, including myself since I am a novice at best at Java, will only be able to roughly infer what these class names mean.

I was still able to get the gist of the changes, so don't misunderstand, the unexpected words just threw me for a loop when first trying to read the entries (this is my first time updating the mod since joining for Rekindled, woo).

You are correct; these are auto generated. Making a manually curated changelog would require too much effort; we don't have that kind of manpower in the development team.

We should strip the [skip ci] part, though. And the removed leading bracket is just weird.

I'll close this as it's been answered, and it's a question, not an issue.

Well, yes, but apart from the question there was also a bug reported. I opened #2771 to more clearly deal with that.

Yes, thank you.

Yes thanks for creating the follow-up. The mishandled tag was the main thing I intended to highlight with my question; I understand if you can't go into agonizing detail on every minor release' changelog! (Though a summary of anything major being added, when relevant, would be nice)
You might also consider trying (this word is operative, of course) to keep the PR titles layman-friendly, if you know they are going to be seen by people not as familiar with your code (or coding at all). But like really, just having a changelog ingame is better than most mods I've seen, so...

Unfortunately, we need to have PR titles that makes sense to us developers, and only secondary as changelog items.

However, bolyai usually posts a write-up in the discord whenever something of major interest is released.

Yeah that's fair enough, I suppose it already needs to balance being technical, specific and concise. I don't do a lot of development myself so I haven't even figured that balance out yet for my own projects.

Re: Discord: Is there a way to subscribe to/see this write up without having to join another discord server? E.g. a web hook (Perhaps using the "follow channel" feature)? I ask mostly out of curiosity, but also because I wish more cool projects were accessible in this way.

I think Discord allows you to "subscribe" to a channel on a different server; but I don't know the details. This bug report is not the right place for support about Discord though.

Fair enough, though it wasn't my choice of publishing method...
I have more to say but I think it would be better to follow up on it in another issue, or on discord if I feel so inclined. Probably at a later date as I don't want to let any of my pre-existing prejudices sneak into my reply.
