Twitter essentially hasn't loaded for me since Musk took over, so: https://archive.is/c5lnW or,

> Looks like Redis is trying to take over the all the OSS Redis libraries.

> Jedis, Lettuce, and redis-py are down, they are now threatening redis-rs (link in reply).

There's no link in the post, and I don't have a link to the referenced reply, but I'm guessing the link is https://github.com/redis-rs/redis-rs/issues/1419

Damn it, thank you for the link, sir.

Can we please make this SNS disappear?

Or nitter

Isn't xcancel.com a Nitter instance?

It is.

What does it mean by "redis-py" is down? It's still on Pypi?

I think they meant to say the maintainers for redis-py, lettuce, and jedis have already relinquished control to Redis Inc. The libraries are still online, but their repositories have been moved to the official Redis organization and are "controlled" and "owned by Redis" according to an email quoted in the linked Github Issue.

Thanks, that makes more sense of the "down" thing.

I didn't realize Jedis was an official Redis client now, looks like it has been since 2020 without any major impact to the development.

I guess they are unlikely to add any features to support alternative servers.
