From First Principles: Why Scala?

well as said 28 commits, NOT ALL were code. MOST of them were basically "fix build"/update dep. so basically the project did not change for over a year.

AND 2019 wasn't really better. 3.3.2 (3.3.3 was mid 2020) was in JUNE 2019 and 3.3.0 was at the beginning of 2019. there won't be a 3.4 anytime soon, if nobody steps up and starts maintaining it, there won't be a 3.4 at all.

slick is heavy on macros it will not survive scala 3

Well, that would streamline nicely the options for DB libs in Scala…

Doobie (optionally with Quill Syntax) would be left and become likely the "Hibernate of Scala-Land".

That's not too bad news imho.
