A few days ago, Dona Sarkar caused quite a storm in the Windows Insider community when she hinted an end to Insider build Twitter teases. Now that a few days have passed, and a new mobile and PC build recently dropped on Friday via the Windows Insider Beam podcast, the queen of the red button has pulled back a bit and has promised that “we will have build teasery flights again,” though new builds will not come today or Tuesday.
1/2 WindowsInsiders we know we caused a bit of chaos last week with our teaser-less flights. (Ahem @NorthFaceHiker ahem.)

From the tweets, this would obviously mean that a new build would come anytime between Wednesday and Friday. Given that Microsoft is holding a media event on May 2nd, the buildless Tuesday would make sense, as the company would not want to draw attention away from the big show. Patterns have also shown that more recent builds have come on Fridays, though there was that one time when Windows 10 Insider build 16179 for PC dropped on a Wednesday.
2/2 This week, we will have build teasery flights again, tho no flights Mon/Tues since we have lots of feedback on our Canary bld to look at
