V is pre-1.0, and you have to install it by compiling it from source. I'm very excited about V. It's the language I wish Go was.

#4I have had some positive interactions with the author in the past and did a little Lilly / NixOS / V crossover video a while ago.[1] It's nice to see this project posted here and that it's still making steady progress!

I don't know V but mostly what I have read about V is that it is vaporware [1]. Is there truth to this impression?

Go look at the commit log and tell me if it looks like abandonware.

I have seen this thrown around a lot, but I do not think it is true anymore.
V lang had a rough launch from what I can tell, with the author overselling and mistakenly underestimating the amount of work needed to fulfill their vision.
V still has a ways to go, but it is in constant heavy development with lots of contributors. It also has a wide gambit of interesting hobby projects using it.
I'd recommend taking a look at the the examples here:https://github.com/vlang/v/tree/master/examples
I think the language has a lot of potential.

#8Have been using Micro wherever possible and I'm happy that I can simply forget all the vim and vi commands without a worry.

They said vaporware, which isn't necessarily the same thing as abandonware. It still could be vaporware if it never lives up to delivering what it promised. I'm not sure on the current state of those promises though, so I don't know if the outlook of it being vaporware is true anymore. At one point it looked like it, but I haven't kept up with it enough.

There has been drama about V and its creator perhaps? I do not remember what exactly. Could anyone remind me what it was all about?
Oh, the vaporware thing?
BTW I checked the Patreon page. It says "V 1.0 release is planned for 2020". Might want to change that. :D
