I don't know whether it's going to take a second or half a minute. I also don't know whether there will be an answer on the first page, or there's going to be a cute image and then I'll need to find "Getting Started" to learn how to get started with unknown project. My subjective experience on the internet is that if the gate isn't labelled, there's unlikely value on the other side.

You know how you could find out how long it's going to take? By clicking the button. It's free. It's easy. Hell, it would've taken you less time to click that single button and read the first sentence than it would have taken you to post this comment.

You didn't even bother to spend half a second actually opening the documentation page and then you come here complaining about how you don't know whats in the documentation. This is entirely a problem of your own creation. What gives?

People who are interested in this are talking about it because they're interested in it. Nobody is trying to convert you.

People who are interested in things learn about them at different times. You make it seem like it's "learn about it at the outset or gtfo".

And it might be that next month there's a different homepage with more details. For a launch where all "marketing" has been via blog post, discord, and discussions across various nerdy social media sites…I'm more than happy for them to have some fun to celebrate this.

There are people who have been watching this for a few months waiting for it to go 1.0 — and, at least on day 1, "if you know, you know."
