Conversation
With the default strict internalChecksFilter, Renovate only considers the newest release of a dependency. For images that publish every one to three days (windmill, unpoller, honcho) the newest release is always younger than the 3 day minimumReleaseAge, so no update was ever proposed: windmill sat on 1.803.0 while 1.818.0 had been eligible for over a week. flexible keeps the 3 day guardrail but proposes the newest release that has cleared it.

Fast-release images (windmill, unpoller, honcho) never have a newest release older thanminimumReleaseAge: 3 days, so they were silently never bumped.
