I decided to look at some other golflang repos to see if other people have made a golflang this scale and apparently they can do business with only like 70 merged PRs at most
Meanwhile vyxal merged PR count is a bit over 1.3k
[pacman] also the part where it isnt really a seventeen year start because the other golflangs are sort of new ish? and the whole consistently updating them is not something we've had
[pacman] like i know 05ab1e has a legacy version and bugfixes and whatnot but vyxal has new digraphs added and overloads redone all the time for better optimization
@Bridget [lyxal ♦️] in 17 years some sort of community could have made some sort of similar scale project
[lyxal ♦️] I don't mean golfiness
[lyxal ♦️] I mean people getting together
[pacman] i guess?
[lyxal ♦️] they organised loopholes, a blog, even a podcast
[lyxal ♦️] but not a community developed esolang
[lyxal ♦️] or rather, one that turned into a multi-person project
[pacman] APL variants
[lyxal ♦️] and like why didn't more people contribute to 05ab1e and jelly?
[lyxal ♦️] or like more than just bug fixes
[pacman] have you seen the documentation
[pacman] jelly especially is a nightmarw
[lyxal ♦️] jelly is probably a bad example
[pacman] i mean golfscript exists
[lyxal ♦️] it doesn't even have a public repo / bug system afaik
[pacman] its also the high barrier of entry for learning the language before you can even consider contributing
