If that is your problem with GitHub, then I agree, you should avoid GitHub, though someone can still mirror your repository there. I assume most new FLOSS projects that want to have users don't consider it a dealbreaker.

This is bad advice to a new FLOSS project that wants to have users. Avoiding GitHub with its user base (meaning issues and discussions), search, project topics (tags), trending repository lists, etc. will make a fledgling project even less

The column-number switch on the site is a clever idea, but I don't think it works. The columns are limited to a fixed height (that depends on their number). The fixed height forces readers to scroll down each column and then back to th

I agree. It seems like interpreting one instruction per frame is the developer's way to guarantee real-time performance. I don't want to discourage the developer from experimenting with this design. What I think they should do is

I'm also happy with the freedom and stability of a single-purpose static site generator. My previous project, Tclssg, was public and reusable from the start. This had big upsides: I learned to work with users and was compelled to imple

If you use an off-the-shelf binary for any tool, you can put the binary in `${project}/bin/`, add it to `.gitignore`, document the download URL in `README.md` or an install script, and commit the checksum in a project-wide `SHA256

Perhaps a case for standardizing on an executable name like `python-script-runner` that will invoke uv, pipx, etc. as available and preferred by the user. Scripts with inline metadata can put it in the shebang line. I see it has been propos

Inline script metadata itself is not tied to uv because it's a Python standard. I think the association between the two comes from people discovering ISM through uv and from their simultaneous rise. pipx can run Python scripts with inl

You can use https://github.com/erning/gorun as a Go script runner. It lets you embed `go.mod` and `go.sum` and have dependencies in Go scripts. This is more verbose than Python's inline script metadata and require
