I thought it was some kind of shitpost until i read the community lol
I don't get what exactly made you think this would be something like a "shitpost"? Do you mean the post title or about the article from the projects website? Its just a normal update blog post information about the changes and rational. I usually like this kind of update posts once a month or so for projects I care and want to stay informed.
I guess Bottles is not as popular as it used to be.
The title
Would be nice if you were more specific.
Read it as if the title was talking of a water bottle, it seems a shitpost about techbros wanting to reinvent the wheel and having to enshittify everthing
Definitely has a buzzword vibe, and reads funny if you have no idea what it refers to. Heck, it's funny even when you do!
When you say it like that, I see it. It can handle Soda and is adaptive. Worthy of the v62 label!
