@joepie91 It got forked by the community as "RebirthDB" due to stagnation according to the Wikipedia page, then the fork got merged back into the original repo. I suspect all the stuff from RethinkDB the company is probably way out of date.
@freakazoid The commit graph is unfortunately also not looking very healthy: https://github.com/rethinkdb/rethinkdb/commits/main/
@joepie91 It's interesting that a Linux Foundation project would be allowed to stagnate like that, but I guess it happens. Maybe the general malaise across all of tech killed it.
@freakazoid It doesn't seem to have any of the typical hallmarks of a CNCF project either, that I would expect - no branding, no changed header/footer on the site, no repository move, nothing. I wonder if the integration ever actually completed.
@joepie91 Makes me wonder why the CNCF even bothered buying it. Doesn't seem like a great use of funds.
... and the 'get help' page links to a Google Group that was banned for violating ToS in some unspecified way.
That's not promising.
