Deleting the "Release history" section

It's clear it is just going to continue on ad infinitum and massively increase the length of the article with redundant links to easily searchable releases. Recent releases just link to the current release notes with no synopsis, so unless the release is notable (e.g., GNOME 1, 2, 3, and 40) it probably doesn't need to be here. The Release History section also violates WP:NOTCHANGELOG Tauin (talk) 04:26, 3 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
