# Holy updates, Batman!

 * I like wpDiscuz and I’ve used it because it offers a much better commenting experience
   than the default WordPress system, but the update frequency has become ridiculous.
 * Over the past few weeks, there’s been update after update after update, sometimes
   only a few days apart. At this point, it feels like every time I log into WordPress
   there’s another wpDiscuz update waiting for me. If these were all critical security
   fixes, I’d understand, but many of them appear to be bug fixes, tweaks, or fixes
   for issues introduced by previous releases.
 * That creates unnecessary maintenance for site owners, especially since wpDiscuz
   recommends clearing caches and purging CDN caches after updates. When you manage
   multiple WordPress sites like I do, this gets old very quickly.
 * I appreciate active development, and I’d much rather use a plugin that is maintained
   than one that has been abandoned. But there needs to be a better balance. Non-
   critical fixes should be tested and bundled into fewer, more substantial releases
   instead of pushing a new version every few days.
 * The constant update cycle has reached the point where I’m considering replacing
   an otherwise good plugin simply because I’m tired of maintaining it.

 * Hi [@angryjerknxc](https://wordpress.org/support/users/angryjerknxc/),
 * Thank you for your feedback.
 * The recent frequency is because automated security scanners are now flagging 
   even minor, low-severity issues across WordPress plugins, and we patch each report
   quickly rather than let it sit open. That’s the driver not instability in the
   plugin.
 * We’re open to bundling non-critical fixes into fewer releases going forward.
 * A 1-star rating for staying on top of security reports doesn’t seem like an accurate
   reflection of the plugin’s quality, so we’d like this reviewed.
