This is great. Even with a small codebase, my fixtures were getting a bit unwieldy. Now things are much easier to manage with Oaken's seed-based approach.
I used my PR to @domchristie.bsky.social's ears app to show off Oaken, and it just got merged!

And I was serious when I suggested switching to DuckDuckGo & using Bangs (duckduckgo.com/bangs). Here's the ones I use the most:
!rails (Rails API docs)
!mdn (Mozilla HTML/CSS/JS reference docs)
!caniuse (Check browser support)
!g (Fallback to Google)
!rails (Rails API docs)
