Why is FreeCAD in the flathub beta repo just the stable release? (lemm.ee)

I wanted to try out the FreeCAD beta/nightly builds, and found on the website that you could get it from the flathub beta repo.

After installing though, it is just the same exact app? Did I do something wrong?

They no longer directly maintain a flathub beta. You must use the .apk from the website like it was in the past. I guess no one wanted to maintain the extra effort for flathub.

I see, I don't mind going through other avenues but it is weird they still say this is an option on their website

Perhaps this is an alternative?
