What commenters are saying
Many commenters assumed Elm was dead after a seven-year release hiatus, but others view the gap as stability rather than abandonment. Two camps: one sees the lack of updates as a sign of a stagnant, unmaintained language with critical bugs unaddressed, while the other values Elm's stability and consistency compared to the fast-moving JavaScript ecosystem. Some note the controversial removal of features like custom infix operators lost community support. Several users report success using Elm in production and with LLMs, citing fewer bugs.
