About AFFiNE
Open-source notes app churns out canary builds — most are dep bumps, but i18n breadth and AI model expansion keep landing.
AFFiNE is shipping near-daily canary builds with a heavy mix of Renovate-driven dependency upgrades and small features. The user-visible signal in the recent window is two i18n expansions (German to 100%, Kazakh added) and a model-roster refresh that brings in Gemini 3.5 Flash and updated Claude Sonnet. The pace is steady; the per-release surface is small.
