If the low hanging bugs can't even be triaged, what hope is there for any future innovation? ie, the countless unsupported browser APIs

It is clear that Elm is understaffed, to say the least.

Honestly, even just a tweet from the BDFL twice a year saying 'I still care about this' would be something.

It's impossible to evangelise something when the creator has seemingly taken his ball and gone home.

The idea that enterprise should use Elm is laughable.

People are constantly asking for a pulse:

It's pretty sad. I personally believe the ecosystem would be in a much more vibrant state today, if the creator had formally abandoned the language at any point in the past, as there are many who would pick up the torch.

It is telling that several people who could once have been considered 'core team' are now building their own languages:

I think you are violating this guideline.

'actually the murder rate isn't that bad'

It is possible to tolerate wealth inequality, while not tolerating mentally ill drug addicts terrorising the public.

Americans clearly have very low expectations for their standard of living.

As demonstrated by the amount of insane 'actually the murder rate isn't that bad' comments in this thread.
