If you're an Arch user who uses paru as your AUR helper and pacman wrapper, you may not know about a really useful opt-in feature it has

Go edit ~/.config/paru/paru.conf and uncomment a line containing `NewsOnUpgrade`

When enabled, paru will automatically check for news on archlinux.org on every system update – which is a really useful thing to have to avoid installing (very rare) breaking changes requiring manual intervention or to know about policy / infrastructure changes, etc.
