just curious and I don't want to install a new update every 10 hours, so it would be nice to see a new stable build. But looking at the release date of stable builds for dolphin(3.0, 4.0, 5.0), I did a rough estimated average distance between the stable builds, and it's around 2.3 years. Can the developers confirm this?
P.S, I'm not trying to rush the developers or anything, I just want the insight of a dolphin dev.
When somebody cares to handle release management and the headache that comes along with forcing the project into a feature freeze.
Nobody appears interested right now.
Fun fact: you don't really have to go grab the newest dev build every time it's released (unless it fixes some crash you're having or they release some big feature I guess).
Crap, I maybe get the new one after a month or so
Personally, I update every month or when a very big feature is merged.

This ^^, I do it whenever a big feature is merged (so like every other month I'd guess).
I use to update whenever i want.
Usually every 3-15 days

It would be nice to have an auto-update feature
Making a good auto-update structure is hard.
it's feasible now with ubershaders, but yeah, we would have to do a ton of infra work to make that maintainable, which nobody appears interested in doing.
Honestly downloading and overwriting your old directory is so painless that it seems unnecessary.
