Hey Laravel developers, have you ever wondered why they might choose to release Laravel Cloud on the Monday? 🤔

I’ve been thinking about it, and there could be some solid reasons behind it.

For one, it could tie into their deployment cycle kicking off at the start of the week. Mondays are a natural reset—teams are fresh, and they can push out the final version right as the workweek begins.

Another possibility: releasing on Monday gives them the whole week to test it in real-world conditions. They can gather feedback, squash bugs, and have a polished update ready to deploy again the following Monday—a neat little cycle.

Pro: it might encourage us all to adopt a smarter deployment rhythm. Imagine syncing our own apps to a Monday release schedule. We’d deploy at the start of the week, test and tweak for five days, and avoid those risky Friday pushes that always seem to break something right before the weekend! 😅

Plus, it seems like they’ve timed other launches to coincide with Cloud’s release date, making Monday a flagship day for the ecosystem.

What do you think—smart strategy or just coincidence? 🤔

Launch on a Monday -> team is fresh to fix issues and do marketing and customer support.

Because deploying on Friday is a bad idea of course!
