I noticed that the hack blog (https://hhvm.com/blog/) basically stopped posting updates since the end of 2022. As downstream users of hacklang development have you folks noticed a change in development pace or ambition within the hack development team?

I too am super curious about this.
Plus, it seems telling that Threads was developed in Python - not Hack.
(I’m aware IG is Python & it’s the same team)

You answered yourself there, Hack is still very widely used inside meta, just less so in IG.

If anything from what I’ve heard hack is slowly taking over IG and WhatsApp. But it’s an incredibly large codebase to move

Kinda makes sense you would use PHP, even though I'm sure many people are shocked by it. PHP was pretty much born in a web context. The language was created with servers and request/response in mind and it shows.
