Cite your sources.

v140 is the canary version which has been available for a long time.

Who died and made you the dictator of open source?

Your post is just a bunch of opinions and lies and speculation wrapped as facts.

What is actually going on with that tag? It has files uploaded in Jul 29, 2024 and files uploaded "6 hours ago" (some hours after Simon first published his blog post). Do they not do proper releases with immutable tags and instead use one tag kind of like a git branch that mutates and changes over time?

Yeah, it looks like they constantly repoint the "canary" tag at whatever they think should be the new canary release.

I don't like that, personally. I think the project would be easier to reason about if they shipped alpha versions instead.
