Sidekiq didn't kill RTG, they chose to die.
RTG decided not to offer future versions of Redis past 3.x. Once the owners stop investing time and effort into a company, they're choosing to let it die while pocketing any remaining profit.
- phendrenad2 4y agoIf Sidekiq supported Redis 3, maybe they wouldn't need to spend an untenable amount of time and effort on the company, and users wouldn't be impacted.
- mperham 4y agoDo you think no software should ever upgrade dependencies? Do you think it's unreasonable to want to take advantage of new features in newer versions? Why should I lock Sidekiq to Redis 3 forever? When am I allowed to require Redis 4?
- phendrenad2 4y agoI'm not saying you should be disallowed from anything, its your project. I'm just calling for people inconvenienced by this to do more.
