Screenshots on the website would be very helpful. This sounds interesting, but would like to see what the actual UI is before setting anything up. It would also be good to link to the Github repo for the CLI part - I'm skeptical of giving an unknown tool access to my database without understanding what it's actually doing.

Totally understandable, your concerns are valid. I will have to figure out the CLI part, I would prefer to keep it private (at least for now), but I get it that people don't want to provide DB access to a completelly new tool.

And yes, you're absolutely right about the lack of screenshots. I realize now how important that is for trust and clarity. I’m working on improving the landing page with proper visuals, and I’m also exploring the idea of a live demo using an in-browser SQLite DB — that should let people try it instantly without setup. It’ll take a bit of time, but it’s now high on the priority list. Appreciate the feedback!

is this chatgpt? your comments read like chatgpt output

I do ask chatgpt to improve my messages, but the content is mine.

Honestly, that comment really does not seem very chatGPT-like.

it screams it to me - wording such as "your concerns are valid", "yes, you're absolutely right..." and "I realize now how important...", and then usage of em-dash

As mentioned in another comment, I used ChatGPT to improve grammar and rewrite a bit my messages. I stopped using it since.

It's okay to be authentically you

Last time I was trying to be authentically me my response triggered a whole sub-thread about me using the word "subvention" and how funny Europeans sounds to Americans.

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I have this too, many words I get from French and turn into English do exist in reality (they sound natural to me) and bam! there you have a snob who wants to show off :)

What is this obsession with the em-dash? For those who used LaTeX it is second nature, and a -- gets changed to an em-dash by a lot of editors or programs such as AutoHotkey

I may have to stop using Em-dashes.

I'd second the screenshot recommendation.

But def looks very interesting and i like the simple minimal design on mobile. Logo's great too. Congrats on getting it out there!
