So today I noticed an update on the PHB and the basic rules. I know you guys are cleaning up all the books and/or updating them.
I was really wondering if we could get a thread somewhere where we can actually follow those big or small changes. NOT to check what is happening from your side of the business, but mostly I would like it to see what is updated.
Or am I ignorant and is there already a list somewhere?
if it is just cleaning up errors made by the team or the automated systems that do the initial work of turning the files into sources for this site, I don’t think it’s generally logged anywhere we can see. It would be nice, but I can also see it might not be worth the staff time. When they do a fuller “refresh” of a source (like they did with Curse of Strahd some time back), they will sometimes post about it in the forums, but the change list there is not exhaustive.

Sometimes bug fixes and other backend updates require a book to be updated. I know one of the bugs I had tracked which impacted the PHB and iPads (where if an iPad rotated into portrait from landscape the formatting broke) was fixed with this update.
If there is ever a change that is errata, that would be announced (and logged). 99% of the time, app book updates are backend fixes in order to resolve issues.

Thanks in advance!
I, too, would like this!
If it’s errata, it is logged here: https://www.dndbeyond.com/forums/dungeons-dragons-discussion/rules-game-mechanics/8760-official-wizards-of-the-coast-errata
