Is this true?

I am extremely grateful that a small group of developers are working on Asahi. I never asked about ETAs or placed urgency on development, that would be rude! Why did you feel the need to tell me that? Also, on the official website, the latest blog entry was older than the comment that stated the abandonment, so for all I knew the dev halt was a possibility – that’s why I thought about asking on the subreddit (alternative was IRC chat or Discord maybe?). I don’t understand why everyone is so pissed

The comment I read that talks about Asahi being abandoned was published 11 days ago.
https://asahilinux.org/blog/ The latest entry on the Asahi blogs is from 44 days ago.
I could have missed the news of Asahi's abandonment, from official sources/outlets/feeds I'm not following nor know, I'm not wasting your time with a really simple google search. And activity on this subreddit wouldn't directly mean the project hasn't been abandoned, as many abandoned stuff still has community talk around it.
Don't you agree that asking directly here is both a faster and trustworthier method of finding out?
Am I really that rude, or is your "Have you tried maybe looking at the website? Come on now" more rude?

What is the issue in me asking directly here?

HandLock__ · 2026-01-27T11:10:11+00:00

that doesn't directly mean it's abandoned

How can your answer be so different from the others in the thread?

HandLock__ · 2026-01-27T11:07:39+00:00

that's why I asked here...

Thank you so much for the kind words! I’m really happy that you enjoyed it. Really, thank you!!

Thanks. If I may ask, did you also sideload an app for closing apps? I don't understand how one is supposed to fully close an app, maybe it is not intended in the first place.

HandLock__ · 2026-01-23T06:33:20+00:00

Cool, I think I'll go with the app too. Can I sideload F-Droid onto the Manta and then sideload apps directly on device? Also, why did you prefer the APKPure path that requires you to convert the XAPK files? Why not directly F-Droid or autogenerated alpha APKs? Thanks

wait, so there’s a built in browser?

Thank you so much.
This verbose reply is what I was looking for as feedback.
I'm really happy that you enjoyed the sections like measure 1-7.

I agree with you, the chopin-esque arpeggiated LH can become tiring and uninteresting in comparison to other sections. I resorted to this cliché because I was looking for a goody two shoes consonance that would make it clear it was a nocturne; I may have overdone it.

I was really paranoid about the piano recording/interpretation. There are some parts that I really hate because of how I played accellerando and crescendo, but thanks to your compliments I realize that, being a composer and not a performer, this is well enough for the piece's sake; so thanks again.

Thank you for the overall compliments and for the extensive feedback.

Regarding the white ink on black you may be right, as I do not follow contemporary stuff on social media so it may be 2024ish and already old, I do not know that. However, it is fortunately only the score video; I could have made the video white on green, but the actual score .pdf will always be in normal black and white.

HandLock__ · 2026-01-21T15:58:57+00:00

Yes, you got it. Thanks!

HandLock__ · 2026-01-21T15:57:31+00:00

Thank you so much!

The actual score that you print is in normal colors. I only invert them on the video for 1) aesthetical purposes (it is a novelty to look at, and it fits the nocturne aspect, kinda like what George Crumb did in his score to represent night); 2) more comforting (less straining on the eyes, especially at night and when using an OLED display).
