⚠️ This issue respects the following points: ⚠️

Bug description

Consider: https://nextcloud.com/changelog/

Up to Nextcloud 24, the changelog for a major release (#.0.0) correctly contained useful information, and usually a post to a blog entry explaining all the new features, major changes, and any breaking changes.

However since Nextcloud 25 and onwards, these are missing entirely!

IF we search github issues (nextcloud/server), we can find posts like this:

I have also found https://docs.nextcloud.com/server/stable/admin_manual/release_notes/index.html ...

Steps to reproduce

  1. Be a nextcloud home/lab admin
  2. Try to keep up with latest/stable releases
  3. Read changelogs for major upgrades

Expected behavior

Can the changelog entries (https://nextcloud.com/changelog) at least contain a link to those github issue entries and the admin link, and ideally also include a high level summary of the big important items?

That's still there, also for 26 and 25.
