In fact, it looks like every Rust minor version since 1.0, all 62 of them, had a dedicated thread, and none of them were deleted.

Rust, like many languages, rarely tick the major semver version. In Rust's case it may never after 1.x. Therefore, like many programming languages that get posts, the minor version is quite significant and worthy of independent discussion. The discussions aren't interchangeable

  Yes, it's not interchangeable because the 1.0 of an anticipated project is a big deal. Meanwhile on Rust 1.62...

    Maybe actually say what you want to say instead of alluding to some vague notion of trivialness.
- legerdemain 4y ago
  That's fine, but beside the point. Let me repeat more clearly. Tauri, a framework (not mine), got robbed of its 1.0 announcement because there had been another thread about it in the past year. Rust, a language, has dozens of threads, roughly one per month, about minor version releases stand without being deleted. Does this make the contrast more clear?
  - dagmx 4y ago
    I see multiple posts about Tauri 1.0 when I search, and saw the posts about Tauri here when they hit 1.0? Maybe it was taken down after, I'm not sure what transpired but perhaps it was a misunderstanding on dangs part, where he may be more familiar with Rust's release cadence. I'm not sure why jumping to the worst possible conclusion and aggressiveness is warranted.

      Rather than rely on me to narrate the facts a third time, I encourage you to look at the linked Tauri thread and check the number and vintage of other threads about Tauri.

        I did. Rather than have me reiterate my reply once again (see how everyone can be as flippant as you?) you can also see that I mentioned I saw multiple posts about Tauri hitting 1.0, including the post that hit the front page on the day it hit 1.0.
