I'm excited to play 1.0 with a friend on console, they got me into the game quite a while back

Glad to hear you're so excited. Just to be clear though, these target dates might still change. But currently there's been no sign of such.

I think we are looking at 2030 right now, but by the end of the month with how many times this question is asked, we are looking at 2040

It took me several days peeking on here looking for some dates. It should be pinned at the top of the forum somewhere. Shaming people for not reading the dev diary... Some of us have jobs lol.
Anyways I'm glad a lot of people were asking because it IS now easy to find the answer, as contrast to a week ago.

When the date is 100% for sure I plan on pinning it- Not before. Users take soft dates and estimates as holy guarantees way too often to be pinning the estimate that might still change.

Typically all Minor version changes (21.1, 21.2, 21.3) are forward compatible

Typically all Major version changes (19, 20, 21) are not compatible.

1.0 experimental -> 1.0 stable will be a Minor version change. So, unless something major comes up, the experimental save will be forward compatible to the stable. It is however generally Recommended to start a new save anyway.
