Version Dashboard (lemmy.world)

I am currently switching from docker compose to kubernetes. Along with that, I am changing from using the :latest tag on everything to explicit versions.

Now, it's a lot of work to check all the GitHub pages for the releases and updating.

Is there some kind of dashboard that ideally would show me (per app) the version I am running vs. the current version from GitHub? (With a link to the release notes, while we are at it...).

Or is my workflow wrong to begin with? (Haven't looked too deep into something like argocd, maybe that's the answer?)

I use RSS feeds, bump version numbers when a new release is out, git commit/push and the CI does the rest (or I'll run the ansible playbook manually).

I do check the release notes for breaking changes, and sometimes hold back updates for some time (days/weeks) when the release affects a "critical" feature, or when config tweaks are needed, and/or run these against a testing/staging environment first.
