Please, I beg, if you're posting about a new release of the cool thing you made, include a small description of what it is and what it does.

It's hard to boost "libencarbulator turbo++ 2.8a release is now available! Now supports configuring reticulation of splines" in a vacuum, and I want nothing more than to boost the cool thing you made

@mr_daemon if the profile and the website and the link to the release explain it, does the toot really need it?

I see it as a trade-off between more noise for those who know (which are probably most followers) and the reduced effort for those who don't know. The hope is that the latter can find out easily.

Example is the last release announcement of @teamtype where we didn't include the explanation. I'm open to include it in the future, but it's not yet 100% clear to me that that's better.
