We're happy to announce the release of #pandas 2.1.2. You can install it with `pip install pandas` or `mamba install -c conda-forge pandas`. Thanks to all contributors and sponsors who made this release possible! The release notes can be found at: pandas.pydata.org/docs/whatsnew/…

@pandas_dev Who is driving the recent pandas updates? The recent depreciations and general changes are driving me to completely switch to polars. I run a startup and I’d be happy to throw funding to get rid of whoever is behind these decisions.
