Summary

An RSS / Atom feed for the "Releases & Updates" page (https://www.construct.net/en/make-games/releases) and the blogs at https://www.construct.net/en/blogs or at least only the official one at https://www.construct.net/en/blogs/construct-official-blog-1

Possible workarounds or alternatives

Currently, the Construct Community for example, uses a bot that fetches the versions.json from editor.construct.net to know if an update has been done. However the only way to get this content is to use a website crawler, the same is true for any of the contents of the official blog.

Proposed solution

Keep an RSS feed available for the updates page and official blog of Construct.

Why is this idea important?

RSS is a well-known web standard that allows users to control how they read the information from the web. It makes keeping an eye for updates & blog posts more easy and clear, and could allow people who don't use the engine still keep an eye out for it, helping as a niche but helpful marketing resource.
