The alternatives below are ranked the same way, so you're comparing real release momentum, not marketing claims.
About hubVis
The hubverse plotting layer spends its releases absorbing upstream churn, not adding charts.
hubVis is the visualization component of the hubverse stack, centred on plot_step_ahead_model_output() for static and interactive forecast plots. Since the stable 0.1.0 in late 2024 it has shipped three patch releases, every one of them a single referenced issue fix. The plotting surface itself has not grown.
