this is all fine

BUT why are things completly re-written and in a pre-alpha state
released replacing and destroying the users workload and after
that it takes years to fix all teh issues in the one or another way?

this big mistakes are happening over and over and the speed
these are happening is growing with each compontent instead
learn from mistakes and release software after it is finished
or do not make a rewrite at all

it does users not help much if 2-3 years later things starting
to get useable again - why? because in the meantime someone
is changing the next subsystem against a pre-alpha and years
later people are proud to have fixed a lot of issues while
forget that they all were introduced by release unready software
