Yes, as it's still under heavy development and has not yet seen heavy usage.
This mentality that things either flip instantly to mass adoption or are "old" needs to die. All the easy stuff that can be done in 6-12 months has already been done. Anything worth doing today is going to take a minimum of 1-2 years of R&D unless it's nothing more than a packaging and polish/branding of something already in existence.

I think Dat is a cool project and I've been aware of it from, likely, close to the beginning. The scale between "new" and "old" is not binary, nor is it necessarily related to "mass adoption". There are people who still treat React as though it's "the new hotness", despite the fact that it's been out for 6 years and is widely adopted. I'll grant that different people will have different thresholds for what they see as "new". I just personally think Dat has gone beyond "new" and is in a phase of maturation. It's even got a browser with deep support!
