Since 1.0
Every road ends somewhere. This is how far this one has come.
Not a finish line, a tally. What this site has built since the day it launched, how many people have walked some of it, and what you have done yourself. Nothing here goes down on its own.
IWhat’s been builtCounted off the site itself every time it ships
IIWho came alongEveryone, counted without anyone being identified
Visits come from GoatCounter, the cookieless counter described in the FAQ: a number, never a person. The Middle Path is never counted at all, because it holds the whistleblower routes. The public count can run a few hours behind.

IVMile markersEvery release, newest first, with the news that landed between them
ReleasesIn the news
The right-hand timeline is the news wire from The Middle Path, placed by date against the release that was live when each event happened. ▲ marks an event this site classifies as adding to the public good and ▼ one it classifies as subtracting from it; grey dots are older entries kept for the record. The classification is an editorial judgment and the wire is a selection, not a complete record. Each headline links to its source.
The end of one road is the start of the next.
