    I poked around to see which bugs are being worked on and whatnot on lemmy-ui’s github, but I couldn’t find the release schedule (new to open source projects like this).

    Is there a way to get a sense of when a new version drop will be applied outside of being an actual contributor or is that all hidden/just in the minds of the maintainers?

      AFAIK there is no release schedule as such, it’s more a situation of it’ll be released no sooner or later than when it’s ready for release 😃

      I know it can be frustrating to hear that as a user, but it really is better than promising a release date, and then either failing to deliver on time, or delivering something which you know is not really ready.

        Not at all. I get it completely. I do some programming for my 9-5 and have our releases and stuff scheduled in our Jira, but that’s a private dev team, not a open source project like this and it doesn’t use github/gitlab for anything.

        Expectation management and getting people to understand why we didn’t deploy at the specified time is a huge annoyance, lol.
