That's going to be the case with any of these languages which are still in beta (Zig, Odin, Jai, Vlang, C3, etc...).

Not saying you in particular, but it's weird, how too many won't tolerate running into some problems when they knowingly chose something still in beta. "Oh my, there was an issue with the beta software I'm using".

Maybe why JBlow refuses to release his beta to the public. Actually, it can be a good thing for the language, by people filing bug reports (so they can get fixed) or to do a PR (if they are at that level). That way, the language has more vetting, from more eyes on it.

There are degrees of things. I've had my issues with Zig, mostly relating to things changing, but I've never had these types of issues. "Beta" can mean many things. Gmail was "beta" for over a decade. Just pointing out what, in my limited experience, "beta" means for Odin.
