Firefly III is pushing multiple development builds daily with no published changelog content

◆Current state
Firefly III is an open-source personal finance manager. The entire visible release window consists of automated daily development builds with identical boilerplate—no specific changelog is published with any of these pre-releases, and each entry carries an explicit data-loss warning. Multiple builds per day indicate active development, but the content of those changes is not surfaced in these entries.
◆Where it's heading
The daily build cadence has been running at high frequency without a corresponding stable release appearing in this window, which is consistent with a project in heavy feature development ahead of a formal milestone. Without changelog content it is not possible to characterize what the builds contain. A formal versioned release with a real changelog would be the next signal worth tracking.
◆Prediction
Unclear from available data; watch for a tagged stable release to see what the development cycle resolves into.
