    Since hitting v1 the release cadence has been roughly one per month with last month’s being particularly large. I’d say that given the holidays, and the propensity of tech jobs to front load the year with performance reviews etc, you have a while yet before being alarmed. Is there some feature you were anticipating or desperately hankering for that you feel is delayed?

      Yes, every new feature of 0.19.2… moderation tools. More Apollo features that are missing. Also the last update wasn’t large at all. I’m speaking from a paying customers point of view. Not a freebie user.

        Most of my time last update was spent on push notifications, takes a while to set up a dedicated server, APNS integration and all that stuff. With holidays and other work on my plate I havent had the time to work on Avelon all that much. Apollo was a full time project years in the making, hopefully Lemmy will grow to eventually support that kind of full time work

        !arctic@lemmy.world is pretty awesome. It has notification including watchers and supports 0.19 and is a native swift app and very smooth and polished. It’s still in TestFlight beta.

          Yep I’m using that one as well. I have most of every one on my phone. Avelon was one that had me the most excited, along with Bean. Voyager is currently my top one.

          Dunno if you’re arguing for the sake of arguing or if you’re just a fucking idiot. Should I have just put 0.19? I put .2 as it’s the newest. The only real feature that needs to be implemented from .2 is me being able to view all of the users that have upvoted/downvoted.

          My point still stands overall. You purchased a lifetime or anything and are satisfied with development?

            Yeah, beta tested and paid up, happy with the rate of dev for what was very intrinsically a side project. The start of the year is not a very bountiful time for releases; I actually found the release of 0.19 quite an aberration as most teams wouldn’t push code that could fuck everyone’s instances and apps at a time when most people are on vacation. Especially not versions with inter-version compat issues.
