Yes! compared to 2 years ago, that's the case. Even LWN had a decent
thread this time, or hackernews FWIW.

I am a /. aficionado as many here and still like it the most :^)

However there is something also on Tech Republic (beware, this site is
ads and cookies intensive and videos start playing!)
https://www.techrepublic.com/article/devuan-2-0-is-a-debian-fork-for-linux-users-who-want-to-avoid-systemd/
following up this article already our at the time of the ASCII Beta
https://www.techrepublic.com/article/3-reasons-why-you-should-give-debian-a-try/

There is also an increasing twitter traffic from Japan, following up
this first article on OSDN https://mag.osdn.jp/18/06/12/173000

The release went out to devuan-announce on monday (office hours..) so
this time community based fora knew already during a weekend about the
release and this gave the possibility to have community reactions
ready for journalists to pick up, i.e. the Register has quoted the
endorsement of Bruce Perens. I think overall this was a good
communication strategy!
