In QGIS 2.X the changelog from the metadata.txt was/is displayed on the plugins info page (and besides, the info whether a plugin is trusted or not):



enter image description here



In QGIS 3 I miss both informations:



enter image description here



Users are justifiably interested in such changelogs, and often do not want to browse to some metadata.txt.



Do I miss a setting or is this intented? Or a bug?

          The changelog is only visible for installed plugins, that didn't change between version 2 and 3. I don't know if that's intended.



          The "trusted plugin" information removal is intended, because it's meaning was not very clear. A plugin was marked "trusted" if it's author was known by the QGIS core developers, it didn't mean the plugin was better than other plugins. It also didn't mean the plugin got an extra quality check.

This Kransekake is a traditional Scandinavian baker's confection. Confectionery is the art of making confections , which are food items that are rich in sugar and carbohydrates. Exact definitions are difficult. [1] In general, though, confectionery is divided into two broad and somewhat overlapping categories, bakers' confections and sugar confections. [2] Bakers' confectionery, also called flour confections , includes principally sweet pastries, cakes, and similar baked goods. Sugar confectionery includes candies ( sweets in British English), candied nuts, chocolates, chewing gum, bubble gum, pastillage, and other confections that are made primarily of sugar. In some cases, chocolate confections (confections made of chocolate) are treated as a separate category, as are sugar-free versions of ...
