They improve super fast though, releasing a new version every week. If you have specific improvements in mind open an issue on their github.

I would need a real chat to discuss this in depth and certainly can't do this here, but this is not what I meant by scale and discoverability. Scale is, how can I run my own server with access to all the content without having a DB tha
