I'm not using elm but i do like slower release cycles. For example some years ago I wanted to give node.js a shot for some backend stuff for a side project. But every couple of days when I wanted to work on it I had to spent half an hour fixing the build, so I gave up. But at least in the linked discussion, the pace of releases doesn't seem to be an issue, but the lack of communication about what is happening. No clarity whether native extensions will work, if pull requests opened years ago will be merged or at least responded to, whether there will be bug fix releases, etc. To me it seems, that elm community uses this straw man making it about people just wanting faster release cycles in response to valid criticisms in every unpleasant reddit thread I've have ever seen. Not pointing at you here, since you are not mentioning specific cases.
