Heh, I follow a Bluesky bot that posts HN stories that have gone over 50 points and unexpectedly saw a very familiar Github link. I'd made a Show HN story about this ~5 days ago (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=42464454) and I was like "huh, how'd that suddenly get more traction" but turns out it wasn't even my post!
I'm so delighted that this is easily my most popular OSS project over the past 15 or so years (I have my "serious" stuff elsewhere), and I'm not being sarcastic here.
I'll happily answer any questions folks have (expect some reply lag because holiday season). I figure the most popular question is probably going to be "… but why?" though, and the honest-to-the-gods answer is "because I thought it was funny"; I was trying to come up with a nice and simple 1st project to do with Swift (holy crap that language's concurrency story is confusing), and once I ran into iss-mimic I knew what I had to do.
