Pablo Dobarro made a livestream about his new toy and gave away a couple of betas and nobody is talking about it, lets fix it.

There's new hope with the pablomon who joined the team recently and seems like a total programmer madman.
I'm willing to bet he also wants to do something with the materials system.

Let's hope the pablomon will find a way

that pokemon was a total madman on the show, blackpilling the fuck out of everyone watching at times. kept saying that the viewport is broken and the mesh system needs to be completely rewritten (which they're doing now though) but it will take a long time. the show host also was a bit struggling to keep the mood up each time those things were mentioned.
to be clear, it's amazing where blender is right now but all of that gets ruined by the bad mesh editing mode performance so I hope they can get it done somehow in the near future and not in a matter of years. also, do you guys remember the retopoflow addon? they were waiting for blender to freeze the API but then more and more they were realizing how much they have to rewrite for 2.8. now let's say the viewport of 2.8 gets completely overhauled, will they have to restart ANOTHER time?

I also wonder if there will be tensions inside the team since he stated himself he's been working on blender for only 6 months now while putting out all these amazing improvements but then also heavily criticizing the current state of many parts of the software. hope everyone will get along fine but I have to admit if I worked on something for many years and then someone does all this as a noob to it and points out all the problems I'd feel quite awkward.

friendly reminder that this absolute madlad will be in the next blender today episode

any info on when this guy will be finally part of the permanent team?
