Gogs has a set of "latest" files (e.g. gogs_latest_linux_amd64.tar.gz) available for download, which makes getting the latest version easier. It would be nice if dl.gitea.io had this feature as well.

Since we are also backporting fixes it's pretty difficult to declare latest within an automated publishing process.

But it's not exactly the same. I think he refers to latest stable release and not to the master release. But this is difficult to do it automatically since we are also backporting to older minor releases, in terms of the CI server this backport should be latest stable release even if we already released a new minor version.
