Nice, I've thought about this in the past ( https://www.jvt.me/posts/2020/08/26/static-site-private-post... ) and the difficulties were always if you want others to be able to read them

I think the confusion is also because it's a comparison of Community Self-Hosted (CE) vs the pure Open Source CLI - the latter is what works without license key I'll see if I can help with clarifying this in the table! (I'm a

I moved from oh-my-zsh to grml ~10 years ago, and I've enjoyed it - it's got good defaults, is extensible (I've added custom stuff to handle how I manage directories for work things) and the single-file nature of the defaults

We (Renovate) have an issue template (for maintainers/Triage-rights only) which has a label on it Then GitHub Actions runs on new Issues and any that have that label get auto-closed The idea is that folks with Triage+ can remove that l
