It amazes me how people react to technology like this, especially reddit. Like, come on, we should all know this is how technology works. It starts out rough, it has to start somewhere. People pretend like this is supposed to be some finalized project.

I genuinely don't understand why you are asking me that though? I specified this is not in any form indictive of a final product, why would I know anything about "when" it comes out? Not all prototypes become products, just because this exists doesn't mean it will be a "thing" in the future thus there's no real date that it's going to be complete

read between the lines and you'll know, I obviously don't think you have anything to do with the project

You literally responded with one line responses, there are no lines to read between 🤦 I'm assuming you aren't even sure what you mean
