No more automatic updates for standalone?

I have both the standalone version and the Steam version of the game installed. The Steam version is kept up-to-date via Steam (experimental updates enabled), which works fine. However my standalone version is no longer updating itself. It's now on 0.13.0 and when I hit the "Check updates" button in the "About" menu it tells me to go look for a manual update. Now if this was like a two year old version I'd understand but this surprised me, since it's on a very recent release and I've never had this problem before. Are there just no more automatic updates for standalone Factorio or did something break for me?

(As you can see I play on Linux x64. The standalone and Steam version are of course installed at completely separate locations.)

Looking at https://www.factorio.com/updater/get-available-versions it seems like experimental updates are currently only available for 0.13.7 and later. You just waited too long to update from 0.13.0.
