Website has frequent caching issues

Description of the problem

Whenever I visit the changelog page from the releases page, I wonder why the changelog for the new version is missing. Sometimes I remember to press F5 and reload the page and then it suddenly appears. I think this is a client side browser caching issue based on wrong cache control header or webworker which only updates the cache on the first visit. I am not really familiar with the inner workings of the website, so I am just guessing.

How to reproduce this:

• Visit https://golangci-lint.run/product/changelog/#1603 today in Chrome
• wait for 1.60.4
• visit https://golangci-lint.run/product/changelog/#1604 and wonder where the section is

Version of golangci-lint

Configuration

Go environment

Verbose output of running

A minimal reproducible example or link to a public repository

Validation

I kinda have the same issue. Sometimes i notice our CI uses a newer version of golangci-lint that produces some new warnings I don't recognize. So i go to the website to copy the install url and install it, only to notice it hasn't changed on my local machine, until i shift-reload or page and see the actual version number change. Might indeed be a small http header caching issue.

We are aware of the problems, we plan to change our documentation generator because the current system is not maintainable and has a lot of flaws.
This is something that we are working on but it takes time.
