One could argue a major version qualifies. Apart from the genuine dupe 3 months ago all of these are separate stories.

dang's comment also specifically covers "show hn" posts which this is not. Some clarification from dang would be helpful though.

Bevy's creator and project lead here. Feel free to ask me anything!

I know the latest UI update/plan is not released yet, but do you feel like you’ve discovered the way forward in that area? Or are there still lots of unknowns?

Yup! I've had 95% of the new design written out for weeks now. The last unresolved questions revolved around some scene inheritance details, which I've largely sorted. I've been distracted by release prep, but now that its out I should have this ready in short order. I'll note that the primary focus is rolling out the new scene system / format. This enables and improves UI use cases, but the reactivity bits are still being investigated (ex: check out the bevy_quill and bevy_reactor experiments).

What a bad faith comment. How is a new version announcement a dupe? If you don’t care then you don’t have to comment.

Your quote omits the portion where Dan explicitly addressed that case. It needs to be one year since it received “significant attention,” and also major new development. Dan’s post could be worded more clearly, though.

(We’re pretty far in the weeds here, but as long as we’re here – for all intents and purposes, this is a show HN.)

Don’t rely on my assessment, go read https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=9775868. If you disagree, don’t tell me, suggest an improvement to Dan.

This is _not_ a repost from our perspective. This is a massive new chunk of features and content (993 pull requests from 256 contributors) including new hot-topic features like Virtual Geometry.

The GP comment is a bit overstated (I doubt anyone is going to ban Bevy posts) but Bevy has had plenty of recent exposure on HN and most release posts are moderated away on HN because the discussion is almost always about the project in general rather than the release, unless the changes are truly monumental.

A long modsplanation here:

https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=23071428

Recent big Bevy articles:

https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=38144417

https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=39412940

https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=36657970

https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=39672947

That's your last three releases plus something about a foundation, in the last year alone. It's great it's getting traction but it's also quite a bit more than most other projects as it is.

Thanks for replying! I’ve gone to a bunch of bevy ui third party crates. Can’t really try quill yet I think.

Currently haalka is and sickle is looking excellent. Really looking forward to the official deal though!

These are different articles being posted, not dupes.
