Grafana Mimir vs tidycmprsk
A side-by-side editorial comparison of Grafana Mimir and tidycmprsk — release velocity, themes, recent moves, and the top alternatives to consider.
Grafana Mimir vs tidycmprsk: at a glance
What is Grafana Mimir?
Mimir's feed is a weekly Helm bot, with the 3.2 candidate the only real release in months
The visible cadence is an automated weekly Helm chart release opened by a bot with a two-line body, now at 6.3.0-weekly.408. The only substantive entry in the window is the 3.2.0 release candidate from early August, which carried query engine work and native histogram support.
What is tidycmprsk?
Competing-risks modelling that now moves only when its neighbours do.
tidycmprsk wraps competing risks regression and cumulative incidence estimation in tidy-style output, so results slot into gtsummary tables and ggsurvfit plots. The last two releases are small: 1.1.2 sorts tidy.tidycuminc() output by stratum, 1.1.1 is an HTML5 documentation update for CRAN. The substantive work in the window is 1.1.0, which reorganised the gtsummary relationship.

◆ Current state
The visible cadence is an automated weekly Helm chart release opened by a bot with a two-line body, now at 6.3.0-weekly.408. The only substantive entry in the window is the 3.2.0 release candidate from early August, which carried query engine work and native histogram support.
◆ Where it's heading
Packaging and the engine move on separate clocks: the chart ships weekly regardless of whether anything changed underneath, while Mimir itself cuts a minor roughly monthly. The weekly stream tells you nothing about direction and will keep dominating the feed by volume.
◆ Prediction
The chart line moving from 6.2.0-weekly to 6.3.0-weekly points at a 6.3.0 chart release carrying Mimir 3.2 once the candidate goes final.

◆ Current state
tidycmprsk wraps competing risks regression and cumulative incidence estimation in tidy-style output, so results slot into gtsummary tables and ggsurvfit plots. The last two releases are small: 1.1.2 sorts tidy.tidycuminc() output by stratum, 1.1.1 is an HTML5 documentation update for CRAN. The substantive work in the window is 1.1.0, which reorganised the gtsummary relationship.
◆ Where it's heading
The package has spent its releases handing responsibilities to neighbouring packages rather than growing its own surface. Plotting was deprecated then made defunct in favour of ggsurvfit::ggcuminc(), and 1.1.0 moved the regression table methods so that gtsummary could drop tidycmprsk as a dependency. What remains is the estimation core plus the S3 methods that let other packages consume it, which is a deliberate narrowing.
◆ Prediction
Expect releases to continue tracking changes in gtsummary and the broader tidy survival stack rather than adding estimation features.
