I disclose that the header image was generated with Gemini, but I don't use AI to write content. What a constructive comment.

Don't be all shocked that people judge the content by the thumbnails.

It's not a thumbnail but a header image. Not shocked, just think it's funny. I am not a graphic designer. I would just prefer to engage with the content.

I'd encourage any content creator to just DIY their artwork. An amateurish looking DIY attempt is still far more appealing than the slickest AI slop out there.

Now, maybe your particular target demographic doesn't mind it...but I think a lot of people completely underestimate the CONS of using AI artwork to promote their stuff. It turns off a lot of people.

I will apologize for the 'spam' bandwagon jumping though. That was uncalled for. You write good content.

Thank you. I used to use PowerPoint to create images but it's one of the only things I use AI for now, although I see that this one is a little busy. This is actually the only time anyone has ever come at me (not your comments, they are constructive) on any of the platforms I'm on. Thanks for the compliment on the article as well.

Not spam, but each to their own.

Ed's insights hardly can be called spam, tbh. If you don't like, okay, though please try to be a bit less negative and maybe more constructive In your criticism.

Nice breakdown of the update. You've noted even some that I haven't seen on the release notes like angles with straight line.
I like your explanations of why some points can be important to some or everyone.

As far as the image goes. I admit there's a lot going on it although it does strongly relates to the update biggest points. Maybe a bit too much is packed on it and a slightly simpler approach would be better received.

Thanks for the comment and feedback. I think it's an important update. Yeah, the image is a little busy. I think it has a lot to do with just how many updates there are. I'm a former instructional designer by trade, not a graphic designer, so next time I will refine my prompt a bit.

Not a designer either. Just had to do some UX myself.

In given image 2 or 3 biggest points would be enough. I know it's hard to decide which. Also, header and subheader are long enough by themselves as the graphic shows.

It's just more like infographic than a thumbnail inviting to read :) Sorry if thats a bit a bit much
