Shouldn't the onus be on those apps to be up to date prior to your (the 20w) deadline? This wasn't sold as a delay due to problems. It's a delay due to apps not up to date on their code. That's their problem. Not ours.

It's easy to say that, but those apps are how most Hivers interact with the blockchain. Delaying a couple of days is worth it, IMO.
And we also can't be sure they won't find real problems with hived/hivemind, when they do their testing. We've been developing automated tests as rapidly as we can, but there's a huge number of Hive API methods to test. At this point, the largest set of "tests" is the Hive apps themselves.
Man it's really disappointing to get this far and hear that some apps still need to do hivemind testing. Will @crimsonclad even get to make a post in 2020?
Sorry I come off so aggro, but this is kinda bs. You guys have set multiple deadlines and everyone has been nixed. How can this many of our "killer apps" be so far off the ball!
I'm going to say that part of this is me (I really can't manage like a lot of these people to do the personal stuff the way I want alongside the community stuff) but also, something that we are learning on the fly about "decentralized ecosystems". We thought and hoped that enough of us were working on testing or were spinning up nodes, but at the last minute, realized everyone was waiting for everyone else, and part of that is a legacy of the ecosystem we come from. Now, I at least am comitting myself to doing some extra legwork to help us realize that we have to take personal responsibility and encourage all our dapps to do the same... there's only so much blame we can place knowing that in the past it was just all about waiting until you were told "yep this works" by a team who didn't totally have the freedom to care if it actually did.
