OpenWrt users, how do you keep up with updates? I have no problem logging in and performing them, but i have no fuckin idea when they actually come out.

@schtick2940 they're not automatic?
They are not due to major versions having breaking changes, kinda similar to how Debian does updates. This last update switched package managers (opkg->apk). It can be done automatically via Attended-SystemUpgrade in LuCi, but it is always recommended to keep a backup before doing the upgrade just in case something goes wrong. I have not had a problem with attended-sysupgrade before, and it id actually included by default in the most recent major release.
