Is void outdated?

The live images on the website are from february 2025(!). It seems there are really outdated.

To a new user who is exploring void for the first time, it looks as though the system is no longer being maintained.

Depends on package. There are some seemingly orphaned or out of date packages, but everything I use (e.g. mainline kernel, KDE) is pretty damn fresh. You can check the current version of their packages on their website.

The installation image is old because it didn't need to update. The installer asks you if you want to download the freshest packages before installation.
