Hi, I'm very interested in this. I've been using dask/plotly for a side project but it's just too slow. If you know dask, do you think you could discuss which features of dask your project has and doesn't have?

I don't disagree with being inclusive, I disagree with the idea that grammatical details of how we speak have anything to do with inclusiveness. It's like if I start complaining that you use "their" to refer to a softwar
