> Just as one starts getting popular ...

asdf hasn't just started getting popular. It's been popular for a long time already. IIRC I started using it ~8 years ago (~2016). asdf has been around since 2014. I believe Mise (rtx) has been around for a couple of years already too.

Fair. Honestly, I hadn't heard of it until about a year ago, up until then I was using pyenv and rbenv independently.

Same here. Never heard of it until a few months ago when I got back into Ruby on Rails after 12 years.

Also, contrary to the other comments in this chain I don't find it particularly slow..
