  In some ways :). We've come to learn this feature should be truly open to the community, and are doing what we can to provide options to people. We had already done the work, so might as well make it accessible to as many as possible! :)

  Trying to find out what this is / what DuckDB is. Go to website, see completely meaningless splash screen that doesn't tell you anything useful. Go to Documentation, see usage information, absolutely no information about what this actually is. Go to FAQ, still no information about what this is. Is there some new rule about tech-focused startups where you're not allowed to tell somebody what it actually is / how it works / what it's used for, because you're afraid people will find out it's not for them? edit ah after going back and poking around the website more, I finally found the "Why DuckDB" buried halfway in a menu. Still not a great summary, so Googling led me to understand it's SQLite for analytics. Maybe i'm the weirdo for wanting to see that first?

    I've been yelling at the clouds over the same thing for years. Glad to see someone else being a "weirdo"! For you those of you doing this, know that I won't go digging like 0xbadcafebee will; I'll avoid you when I go to choose a tech.

    Yeah, it's kind of weird that sometimes looking for a thing on wikipedia gives a better description of that thing than just being able to read a "Here's what we do..." on their home page. :/
