Hi everyone, I need your opinion about the next release. As you know, each Wednesday I release a new beta version and the first week of each month a stable version.
Tomorrow would be time for a new prod release but recently I’ve been working on a lot of new “huge” features such as opening links in custom tabs, comment and post navigation, etc. which nobody except me have tried in real world scenarios. And not everything is opt-out by default, e.g. the pagination logic had to be reviewed in the whole app in order to be able to navigate between posts from each feed.
Would you like to have stable 1.10.0 tomorrow or a pre-release and skipping the new stable to next week? Personally I would release anyway because if anything goes wrong I can patch it… but if one or two users help me with tests it is worth waiting a week before going into the wild.
Leave me your thoughts in the comments below and thanks as always!
Wait until next week. Don’t put stuff out before you’re happy and comfortable with it
I say wait a week so some of us can be your beta testers. And I promise to keep my mouth shut about feature requests to let things settle. 🤐
Also, there’s no hard rule that says you have to wait a full week. We can test it for a few days and you can still release a stable version this weekend if all looks good.
Ok, thanks! Of course if you have requests (besides bug reports) feel free to ask don’t worry. You’ll have noticed that I first add everything to the issue tracker and then pick things from the backlog according to the free time I have, what can be achieved and how they fit in my “personal” roadmap for the project.
