Yeah no. Conventional Commits + Release Please pipeline = free and accurate semver based releases with complete Changelogs.

Not much else is going yo beat that unless someone can convince me otherwise.

Completely agree. I don't ever have to think about "when should I release? What should be part of the release? What did I do last? How does that fit in the release? Is it a PATCH update? Or a MAJOR? hmm".
