QGIS 4.0 Norrköping is released!

The wait is over! We are pleased to announce the new major release of QGIS 4.0. Installers for Windows, Linux, and Mac are already out.

What's new? On the surface, existing users should expect to engage with a QGIS experience familiar to what they have come to know and love from previous releases. Under the hood, however, 4.0 introduces significant changes to maintainability and usability.

@cartocalypse what is your concern?

@jakobmiksch @cartocalypse we've slapped an early adopter label on the splash. As always, production use cases should stick to LTRs. It never hurts to remind people of that :-)

I meant in announcements (e.g. the blog post and here). Users only see the splash screen *after* they installed 4.0.

Afaik 4.0 is not really meant for random users but people who deliberately want to test a first 4.x release.
From the promotional posts I'd expect any non-expert-in-QGIS-versioning user to get motivated to switch to it ASAP.
