        Hello,

        I'm trying out UT for a blog post and, thanks to some contributors here on the forum, have just discovered that I've spent the last week testing out stuff on the Beta channel of Noble, with quite a few frustrations.

        I see now that there is a small print link underneath the channel drop down menu in the installer that links to this informative page (https://docs.ubports.com/en/latest/about/process/release-schedule.html) but I fear a lot of new users may read past that and trust that the default selection ('24.4 daily' in this case) is the best one. Additional to that, very non-tech users may not even fully understand the release schedule page descriptors.

        I would therefore like to suggest that the latest stable mode should always be in the default position in the drop down menu in the UBPorts installer, especially as the installer is meant to give access to more people.
