I wouldn't say I was trying to force a narrative. I was asking out of concern. I was especially unnerved after seeing the development graph on GitHub:
Also seeing there were features that haven't been implemented for the last 6 years made me even less confident about the future of the project:

Even from this post:

Of all the Zig projects the author said he was going to work on:
- https://github.com/andrewrk/groovebasin/tree/zig
- https://github.com/andrewrk/genesis/tree/zig
- https://github.com/andrewrk/clashos
he never committed and did any of them.
Right. Thank you for just asking questions.
I did ask the same question to other online communities (specifically Reddit and Stack Overflow) to get an unbiased answer.

I asked on Reddit from my 3-year-old account. In comparison, your account is 30 minutes old.
The screenshot from the "answer" is still alive: https://imgur.com/M09Nkx9. But I bet it'll be gone very soon.
Here's a little cached metadata from a Telegram group: https://t.me/ziglang_en/35662
I don't see how the age of my first and brand-new HN account is relevant here.
Assuming this is you also. There were commits to Zig less than an hour before you posted this.
