Yes! compared to 2 years ago, that's the case. Even LWN had a decent thread this time, or hackernews FWIW. https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=17274623 I am a /. aficionado as many here and still like it the most :^) However there is something also on Tech Republic (beware, this site is ads and cookies intensive and videos start playing!) https://www.techrepublic.com/article/devuan-2-0-is-a-debian-fork-for-linux-users-who-want-to-avoid-systemd/ following up this article already our at the time of the ASCII Beta https://www.techrepublic.com/article/3-reasons-why-you-should-give-debian-a-try/ There is also an increasing twitter traffic from Japan, following up this first article on OSDN https://mag.osdn.jp/18/06/12/173000 The release went out to devuan-announce on monday (office hours..) so this time community based fora knew already during a weekend about the release and this gave the possibility to have community reactions ready for journalists to pick up, i.e. the Register has quoted the endorsement of Bruce Perens. I think overall this was a good communication strategy! ciao _______________________________________________ Dng mailing list Dng@lists.dyne.org https://mailinglists.dyne.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/dng
