Duplicati is now auto-updated through four channels. The channels are stable, beta, experimental, and canary.
In the last year Duplicati 2.0 became more and more stable, but we also introduced some new features that were a bit shaky in the beginning. As a result of this, we did not release any updates via the built-in auto-updater recently. We want to change this. We want to provide you with stable versions, but we also want to provide you with new features to try out. That is why we decided to support multiple update channels in the upcoming update. The reason for this is, that Duplicati 2.0 became more and more stable in 2015, but we introduced some new features at the same time. The new featuires were a bit shaky, so we did not want to release them. Due to that, we did not release any updates via the built-in auto-updater for a few months and some people already asked if the project was still alive :-)
Update channels allow you to decide yourself what you want. Do you want a stable release to get a safe backup? Or are you curious? Or do you want to support the developers with testing and feedback? Now you can decide yourself. Here are the channels we will make available: We want to change this.

* Beta. Versions in this channel are currently tested and might become stable soon (whatever that means). It’s likely that there are errors but no serious issues are expected. * Beta.
