        Zen had its latest release 5 days ago, and arc 4 days ago, so I have no idea what they’re talking about.

          Arc. They are only continuing security updates and necessary maintenance. No more feature work, no more bug fixes.

            Do you have a source for that? I can’t seem to find anything on their website, though judging by the past few release notes you’re absolutely right.

            Edit: found this video. Kinda feel like this should be a big red banner on the front page though.
